Ravi Shankar, RIP

[Lagado]

Maybe he wasn't really dead, perhaps it was just that he was in Milton Keynes. It's an easy mistake to make.

Reincarnation. What a concept!

Another ride on the wheel of karma

Sitar maestro Ravi Shankar dies

Is it 2012 again?

 

[Dana R Gregory]

Because of Ravi Shankar, back in the 60s, I fell in love and was enchanted with the sitar. I swore that some day I would learn to play one. Well it took quite a while but I am now a student of Sitar and I love it. I have seen Anoushka and there is no doubt, he taught her well. She is absolutely amazing, as was her father. A belated thank you to the Master of Sitar. Namaste.

Meanwhile, back in 2012......

Ah, the internet. The place where a celebrity’s death doesn’t have to be a one hit wonder.

 

[Lagado]

"The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated."

How many times a person can die?

 

[Auspuff]

Oh no, not again!

Reincarnation can be a real hassle.

I heard that George Harrison and Ravi Shankar are going on tour together this summer.

They are calling it their "Resurrection Tour".

 

[evil dewars]

The idea Ravi was reincarnated and passed away again makes me happy.

How many times a person can die?

42?

John McLaughlin and Shakti as the warmup band for Weather Report in Chicago

THAT would have been a hell of a night!

Oh no, not again!

I thought that was a Hindu / reincarnation joke at first. Heh.

 

[JimK]

Wow...

Was just telling a co-worker TODAY that the best Shankar impression I ever saw was Stanley Jordan at the Va. Beach Oceanfront, circa 1990s.

RIP.
