The record
Title: Ravi Shankar – The Sounds of India
Year/Genre: 1968, Indian Classical
Matrix #: CS 9296

Description: Recorded in New York and released on Columbia, The Sounds of India was one of Ravi Shankar’s most important albums for Western audiences. With narration by Yehudi Menuhin, it served as both performance and introduction, teaching listeners the principles of raga and tala. Shankar, born in Varanasi, became a cultural ambassador during the 1960s, influencing The Beatles and sparking global interest in Indian classical music. For collectors, this LP represents a milestone in the cross-cultural exchange that reshaped world music in the late ’60s.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
