Yes, I Love that album one of the first of its kind where
Eastern and Western musicians come together and there have been
many more great success's since..But these are 2 great masters
of their instruments.It grabs you in from the beginning..
I didn't recommend it because I was staying in the
more traditional groove. Ravi Shankar has also been a great experimenter..
and he has done many successful beautiful soundtracks..one to a Japanese
movie with him and Japanese muscians...stunning.
Can't find it in my collection..
I may have to find it somewhere and download it...now I want to listen to it.

If anybody come accross it let me know......Thanks.
