un instrumento increible

This is fucking rare. A lesson about playing the Sitar and teaching it to one of the most famous person on Earth. He was in the "fab four". He was a legend. A leader. A god.

A Hindu might respond that it would 10 lifetimes to learn.

HISTORICAL FOOTAGE!!

Love George. Great Indian influence in some of the Beatles songs-- and we have George to thank for this.

i want to learn that too, i can play guitar pretty nice and sitar will be my next step.

The funny thing is George played the sitar rock style on Norwegian Wood, after owning one for some time, but letting collect dust. Some reporter asked Ravi Shankar what he thought of the song , and he essentially said it was a good pop song, which could be taken as an insult.

The next thing he knew George Harrison, world-famous Beatle was knocking on his door, not to punch him out, but to ask for lessons.

well, maybe he thought he could do better by learning from an expert
