about

Earlier this year, Northern Spy Records released In Hollywood, 1971, a new record by Ravi Shankar presented across a limited edition of 2 LPs, for Record Store Day 2016. Profits from this release benefitted The Ravi Shankar Foundation, which serves to educate the world about Indian classical music and to preserve the archive of Ravi Shankar.

Northern Spy Records and East Meets West Music are now announcing a wider release of In Hollywood, 1971 on CD and digital formats. This edition contains the entire concert which is two hours long! The CD comes in a beautiful, gatefold wallet with two discs.

Pandit Ravi Shankar was a sitar master and pioneer; widely credited with popularizing sitar and Indian classical music in the West. Through his association with George Harrison, he also popularized the benefit concert with Concert for Bangladesh in 1971. Earlier that same year, Ravi Shankar performed a morning concert in his home on Highland Avenue in Hollywood, California with Harrison in attendance. As Ravi’s wife, Sukanya Shankar, attests in her amazing liner notes, this concert most certainly sowed the seed for the overwhelmingly successful Concert for Bangladesh.

These four Ragas are beautifully recorded, and they sound phenomenal after tape transfer, audio restoration, and mastering by Barry Phillips.
