Anandar Shankar's 'Dancing Drums' - what a tune! I heard Patrick Forge
spin it when he played The Blue Note here in April. Isn't this guy a
cousin of Ravi Shankars or something? I got an album of his from '70
with covers of Light My Fire and Jumping Jack Flash on it - really
cheezy but great. Does anyone know what 'Dancing Drums' is off & what
year its from? And speaking of Sitar, is there any other good stuff
out there, along the lines of 'Mathar' or 'Zoom', Indian stuff that grooves?
