Genre: Apple Records
Places I remember: Noel Forth sent this to me about 40 years ago for screen printing shirts for him (thanks Noel). Those shirts are long gone I guess (though they live on in photos of Noel drumming for Tortis and Vertical Hold) but I still have Raga.
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Dawn to Dusk
Gear costume: Ravi teaches George (not from the soundtrack but cool to watch)
Active compensatory factors: It's a soundtrack to a documentary film about Ravi Shankar, produced by George Harrison. Apple Films provided financial support and then the soundtrack came out on Apple Records.

The whole project led to George and Ravi putting the concert for Bangla Desh together (see my previous post down below).
The film is one thing, the soundtrack is another. In this case, it reminds me of Wonderwall (George's first album - not Oasis) in that it is made up of short pieces, of excerpts rather than complete side long songs. In that way it's a nice set to have as the range is broad.
Where do they all belong? Apple Records, man. The magic endures!!
