Aashish Khan - Living Legend of Indian Classical Music and Master of Sarode

He takes us back to the creation of his pioneering Indo-Jazz fusion band, Shakti, in the early 1970s, he shares about his new project Shringar, and reveals that he has a literal treasure trove of unreleased recordings, including a track that he recorded with George Harrison, Eric Clapton and others.   Here’s an external link to every Musical Mention in this episode: 0:30 Aashish Khan 2:35 Sandip Burman 3:13 Sarod 4:51 Tonic 5:08 Chikari 5:18 Taraps 5:35 Reverb 5:58 Plectrum 7:04 Raag (or Ragas) 7:11 Ragas (or Raag) 9:23 Mian Tansen 9:35 Swami Haridas 9:38 Emperor Akbar (1542–c. 1605) 9:48 Allauddin Khan 9:55 Wazir Khan 10:00 Rampur 10:03 Uttar Pradesh 10:05 Lucknow 10:14 Ali Akbar Khan 10:19 Annapurna Devi 10:20 Sitar 10:24 Subahar 10:30 Timir Baran Bhattacharya 10:32 Sarod 10:35 Ravi Shankar 10:40 Pannalal Ghosh 10:41 Bansuri flute 10:52 Folk Instrument (Indian) 10:54 Classical Instrument (Indian) 11:12 Piccolo flute 11:18 Assam 11:24 Indian 11:34 Bahadur Khan 11:51 Dhyanesh Khan 12:57 Ameena Khan 12:03 Pranesh Khan 12:04 Tabla 12:09 Violin 12:19 Alam Khan 12:23 Manik Khan 13:02 Cello 13:15 Oboe 13:23 Guitar 15:16 Indian Fusion Music 15:21 Shanti (band) 15:41 Richard Bock 15:53 Ravi Shankar 15:57 World Pacific Record Company 16:13 Zakir Hussain 16:27 Swapan Chaudhuri 16:40 England 16:41 America 16:55 Neil Seidel 16:59 Steve Leach 17:04 Steve Haehl 17:08 Frank Lupica 17:13 Pranesh Khan 17:18 Dholak 17:21 Shanti (band) 17:36 Atlantic Records 17:42 CD 17:44 Vinyl 18:05 Shringar 18:12 Thinking of You (song) 18:14 Tim Green 21:20 Charles Lloyd 21:25 John Handy 21:26 George Harrison 21:34 John Barham 21:35 The Beatles 21:45 Western Notation 21:54 North Indian Music 22:06 Piano 22:37 George Harrison 22:45 Pop Music 22:52 Ringo Starr 22:55 Eric Clapton 22:57 Billy Preston 24:29 Mian Tansen 27:28 Saraswati 28:01 Bengal 28:13 Bansat Pancham 29:37 Pakhawaj 29:47 Uday Shankar 30:16 Ludwig van Beethoven 30:47 Maihar Band 33:19 Cassette 33:21 Reel to reel 35:30 Taleem (Explain in the episode) 38:03 Gharana 38:05 Senia Maihar Gharana 38:51 HMV (His Master’s Voice) 40:15 Nikhil Banerjee 40:14 Jotin Bhattacharya 43:31 Jazz 43:32 Classical Music (Western) 43:50 The Beatles 43:54 Elton John 43:58 Bob Dylan 44:09 Lay, Lady, Lay 44:22 Stevie Wonder 44:26 Lionel Richie 44:46 Michael Jackson 45:11 Shiraz Khan
