Ustad Rais Khan - Raga Marwa
I’ve been really getting into Indian classical music over the last year or so, basically all sarod and sitar. I’ve gone to three live performances (Buddhadev Dasgupta, Ravi Shankar, Kartik Seshadri), and collected many hours worth of recorded music. Until now, none of the recordings have captured the stupefying hold-your-lighter-in-the-air, better-than-Jimmy-Page, full-on rock aspect of the live shows.
This track nails it. It’s an hour long, but totally worth it.
