    AMAZING

    I personally LOVE Ravi Shankar... and what better than a CD of his very best work? Truly a master of the sitar. So authentic and cultured... true sounds of India...genius work of world music. Keep it for yourself or give it as a gift... either way, amazing choice. I love Yehudi Menuhin as well. Can't go wrong. Beautiful sound.
