In high school I had this 3 album set and played this over and over and over again. Not only that I actually saw the Ravi Shankar and George Harrison concert in Chicago. Ravi asked the audience to please refrain from smoking and people listened to him. I was in seventh heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the funniest thing for me was when Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar Khan, and Alla Rakha sat down and started playing, after a minute the crowd went wild... Ravi said, "If you like the main show as much as the tuning up, we are in for a good night".

This is the most beautiful sitar song I've ever heard, discovered it 15 years ago, back then, KZbin was still at 480p highest resolution, and there was a full video of them playing, but sadly I can't find the video anymore, but I'm glad I found the full song! Didn't know it existed. I wish I was there, I missed out on the best decodes of the 20th century!

The Village Voice, use to, I do not know if these days this still is observed, however The Village Voice of 1971 use to conduct a survey at the end of the year asking of their readership to submit a list of the 20 best albums for the year of 1971. To be certain there were albums like "All Things Must Pass", "Concert For Bangla Desh" maybe some might remember James Gang "Yer Album"(that made my top twenty albums for 1971) and so on. The reason why I mention this is that The Concert for Bangla Desh" was such a turn-on that when I reviewed the album for the top twenty albums of the year I said in no uncertain terms "that the concert was the greatest experience of my life".That statement apparently caught the attention of the paper and it was used and printed in the paper a short while later. That is how excellent it was to have been fortunate enough to have been there and to have participated just so. A great Concert, "The Concert For Bangla Desh".

Bangladesh can still use our concerned prayerful attention today Oct 2021... 50 years on from this legendary concert effort. The devotees of Hare Kṛṣṇa were physically assaulted with fatal causalities. The mob of about 500 Muslim radicals also desecrated their small center, burning sacred books, and destroying the whole property. This is still going on . Villages are being burnt to the ground by these fanatics. Hare Krishna. My Sweet Lord. Please help the poor Innocents.

The combination of Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar Khan (sarod) and Alla Rakha (tabla) made this a magical performance. Shankar's sitar teacher was Khan's father, Ustad Allauddin Khan. The guru encouraged his students to play different instruments, hence Shankar (formerly a classic dancer) on sitar, Khan on sarod and Khan's sister Annapurna Devi on surbahar (like a tenor or bass sitar). Shankar and Khan then became as close as brothers, and when Shankar married Khan's sister (arguably the greatest Surbahar player in history), he and Khan became brothers-in-law.

This was a very anticipated recording.I can recall with true care and fondness this time and this great event.It was to be certain both an inspiring concert and this Album remain as a testament perhaps even a belief in this world as help was on its way. The original Vinyl had the "Tune Up" with George Harrison introducing (I want to thank for coming here)the indian music(a little more serious than our music) and Ravi Shankar and friends on the same side."Bangla Dhun" is much in the line of a highly spirited exercise in the craft of the Sitar and Indian music. This might almost be said to perhaps be the best side of the multi-album recording, that The concert for Bangla Desh generated. To be certain "Bangla Dhun" is a great listen with much more great performances to come.Inspiring, exhilarating a real great memory.

But c'mon folks, after hearing this piece, how many can say that they've heard better? They always say that they heard of a sitarist here or there, but they never give the proof, which would be an actual recording. Well, here is an actual recording.

THIS WAS A VERY GENEROUS EFFORT ON THE PART OF RAVI & GEORGE, WITH SO MANY GREAT MUSICIANS HEADED BY BOB DYLAN DOING THEIR SHARE. IT BEGAN THE WAVE OF BENEFIT CONCERTS. SADLY today Bangladesh still needs help. Hare Krishna devotees were not spared in the frenzied, irrational, and passionately violent attacks by not an individual attacker, but a mob of 500+ organized haters. THEY ARE BURNING VILLAGES AND DESTROYING PROPERTY, AND COMMITING MURDER. These persecutions of INNOCENT devotees of Our Sweet Lord, (MY SWEET LORD), even 50 years after the war in 1971 are inexcusable horrors. 🙏🏻📿😓📿🙏🏻

El primer concierto benéfico de la historia en ayuda de los refugiados de Bangladesh, fue organizado por el destacado músico indio Ravi Shankar y el ex Beatles George Harrison.- Participó un grupo de amigos de George, como Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Billy Preston, entre otros. El lugar elegido fue el Madison Square Garden, Nueva York, y el motivo, reunir fondos para combatir la pobreza en Bangladesh. Paul Mcartney y John Lennon no participaron en este concierto que, para muchos, es considerado uno de los mejores de todos los tiempos. El vamos del espectáculo estuvo a cargo de Ravi Shankar y su excepcional ejecución del sitar; fue acompañado por músicos invitados. ¡Bendiciones y salu2 desde CHILE!
