Description
Shankar Family & Friends featuring Indian musician Ravi Shankar, recorded primarily in Los Angeles during the spring of 1973, but not released until late 1974. It was produced by Shankar's friend George Harrison and one of the first releases on the ex-Beatle's Dark Horse label. In a deliberate blend of "East-meets-West" musical styles, other performers include Indian-music pioneers Alla Rakha, Ashish Khan, Shivkumar Sharma and Hariprasad Chaurasia, and Western musicians such as Tom Scott, Emil Richards, Billy Preston, Ringo Starr and Jim Keltner. The album features the Harrison-arranged pop bhajan "I Am Missing You" and a jazz-funk instrumental, "Dispute & Violence", the latter a part of an intended ballet, titled Dream, Nightmare & Dawn. This rare radio/promo copy (upper right corner punch and back cover sticker) was distributed without shrink wrap and listed as “New” because it’s in mint condition featuring clean cover, original sleeve with four-page illustrated narrative insert and never played vinyl that was removed from its cover for the first time for the above photos. Tracks Side One "I Am Missing You" – 3:45 "Kahān Gayelavā Shyām Saloné" – 2:55 "Supané Mé Āyé Preetam Sainyā" – 4:15 "I Am Missing You (Reprise)" – 4:03 "Jaya Jagadish Haré" (PD) – 4:54 Side Two Dream, Nightmare & Dawn (Music for a Ballet) "Overture" – 2:33 Part One (Dream): "Festivity & Joy" – 3:56 "Love-Dance Ecstasy" – 3:13 Part Two (Nightmare): "Lust (Rāga Chandrakauns)" – 3:13 "Dispute & Violence" – 2:43 "Disillusionment & Frustration" – 2:50 "Despair & Sorrow (Rāga Marwā)" – 3:04 Part Three (Dawn): "Awakening" – 3:05 "Peace & Hope (Rāga Bhatiyār)" – 4:31 Check out all our vinyl listings HERE: https://ebay.to/3EYbRYh
