GCP 8 - The Beatles + Indian Music
First, The Beatles listen to American R and B - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFq5O2kabQo
Country Music - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-c66SJPuUI
and perhaps most importantly, these two guys. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5JALwwaASg and (from St. Louis :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ofD9t_sULM
So, at first, they sounded and looked like this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0YifXhm-Zc
And girls went crazy all over the world! It looked like this. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EX-N-0NQl8o. By the way, they are playing in Sheah Stadium. That's where the New York Mets play baseball.
But then they got bored, and went to India. So, George Harrison and Ravi Shankar hooked up. Ravi taught George how to play sitar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t79aI-I6ucA
and the Beatles started to sound like this. - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MF90rX43VpE&feature=related
After the Beatles broke up, George and Ravi continued to make music. Here's a famous song called Prabhujee. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFnyg3YhuP4
George made The Concert for Bagladesh. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngDpgwRY2bs with Ravi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLY0CmWJunA
and when he died, Ravi Shankur, the rest of the living Beatles (Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, and Billy Preston) along with many other famous Indian, British, and American musicians all gave him a big tribute concert called "The Concert for George."
Hallelujah/ Hare Krishna! XD
