This predominantly instrumental 1966 album by Hungarian Jazz guitarist Gábor Szabó, (reputedly one of Carlos Santana's favourite guitarists) comprises 11 songs that combine Szabó's distinctive Jazz-inflected grooves along with a sitar (hence 'raga', and the inclusion of the Rolling Stones cover 'Paint it Black') dubbed over it. Bernard "pretty" Purdie (appears on countless funk/soul/groove/Jazz recordings and sampled to shit on numerous hip hop releases) on drums is reason enough to download this excellent album.
