Hippie and Flower Power led these people to this first of a kind concert. It was tropical!
Ravi's appearance at "Concert for Bangla Desh" organised by George Harrison, is epic. He tunes up before his performance & receives a massive round of applause from the mostly hippy audience. "Thank you" he says "If you enjoyed the tuning so much I hope you enjoy the playing even more" What a guy.
Lee - this is a ‘must’ listen!!
What`s really cool is the entire audience could get into Ravi Shankar & then just as easily get into Jimi Hendrix & The Who - all on the same bill. I don`t mean to put down where we are today but you would have loved living the 60`s & 70`s. I miss it more than I can say.
Likewise! I hope this era still exists in a parallel universe - perhaps I reincarnate there

1967 Monterey Pop Festival Lots of extraordinary music. The Who, Jimi Hendrix , Otis Redding, The Grateful Dead, others. One in particular, a feamale rock singer that came there relatively unknown, and left a super star. JANIS JOPLIN. Hear "Ball and Chain"
Monterey Pop was an amazing movie, L33 it's worth watching the whole thing. The camera and editing is great. This final with Ravi Shankar captures the best qualities of 1967. A time when the top musicians were pushing audiences to expand their minds, and these young people opened themselves to Indian music. While "unknown" in the US, it had been developed for thousands of years in India. At Monterey, also check out the awesome closing numbers by Janis Joplin, The Who, and Jimi Hendrix. Each performance is iconic music history. Tropical!
I'm definitely down with watching more from this show. The video was SO COOL. Seeing 1967 in all its glory and not so glory... gotta love it
Yes, 1967 had "not so glory" too. It was a messy time, a lot of political and social division. Waiting for imprtant social progress, (everyone was sexist, most were homophobic, or racist). Teens distrusted "anyone over 30", hippies were mocked/attacked for long hair, drug laws were harsh, the Vietnam War drafted and killed thousands each year. By 1968 the great leaders MLK and Robert Kennedy were gunned down. The music mattered MORE then, because it was a much needed refuge.@@L33Reacts
It was a beautiful time. But now we are all old. We still have the memories.
Thanks for doing this, I don't think anyone has reacted to this. A very important influence in the 60s. Amazing percussion as well as the sitar.
What a performance right?? I was floored by this. So, so good. I feel honored if I am the first
No our stupid reaction has done it long before this maybe 2 years ago or 1 year😊
Sorry 4 years ago
Excellent choice, this is a great video! I love Ravi Shankar and listen frequently to Chants of India (produced by George Harrison), which are lovely. The people in the audience are my parents' general age group and I love imagining them being somewhere like this. I feel very grateful to the people of the 60s who broke free of the conform-or-be-punished era of McCarthyism and rebound snapped into the extreme open-mindedness that we still benefit from today. Tropical, baby! ✌🏽
My parents were there. And left me at home. 😢
@angelagraves869 - Yeah, well these same 'freedom loving hippies' were spitting on our boys who were being forced to coming & going to Viet Nam to get themselves killed thanks to our Govt drafting them. Our boys were dropped into a meat grinder to fight communist pig Pol pot and the Khmer Rouge. I dislike a lot of these people at Woodstock because they had no respect for their fellow brothers and sisters being sent over there against their will while they themselves were whacked out on drugs and living like bums. . These same fruit loops are running the world today and just look at the mess we're all in now!
Ravi's tabla player, Alla Rakha, is the father of the world's greatest tabla player, Zakir Hussain, who still tours. I saw him with Shakti and John McLaughlin last year and hope to see him again soon. Indian Classical is another deep genre.
Its been a while since I've seen that performance. Raga is a fascinating form of music, quite different than Western. Years of study, training, and practice are required. There's no "song" as such, more like improvising on a musical scale with prescribed rhythm patterns. Eighteen minutes may seem like a long time but in India they can go on for hours. This particular piece, tho', is probably a Dhun rather than a classical Raag. I was eager to see our host's reaction to the Tabla. They're amazingly expressive drums. The sequence where the Sitar and Tabla "talk" to each other ("jawab sawal") shows their incredible range of tones.
Ahhh...1967 - the year I graduated from college, got married and began my 30 year teaching career. I was 22 years old, add 57 years to that - I'll turn 79 this coming September. What memories - what a f******* ride!!!
Sir did you enjoy this Indian music in 1967?
Yeah, the musicianship is unfathomable here, in more than one way. Great reaction as always!
Rock on, Lee!
Only one word describes this performance my friend, TROPICAL!
I first saw this at a "midnight movie" showing in the mid-70's just after graduating from high school. My brother had previously bought the album "Monterey Pop Festival" so I had heard this as early as age 12, but seeing the live performance is a spiritual experience. Watching Jimi Hendrix, Mickey Dolans from the Monkeys, and Michelle Phillips from the "Mamas and the Papas" groove out on this is memorable. The seriously transfixed look on the faces of many in the audience says it all. Many others are transported to another astral plane by the groove, drugs or not. Classical Indian sitar music is truly univeral in spirit. I believe they opened on the morning of the final day of the festival when everyone was pretty much burned out, much like Jimi Hendrix 2 years later at Woodstock with the Star Spangeled Banner ala Vietnam War. Monterery Pop inspired Woodstock and all the megaconcerts to come.
Monterey Pop had some amazing performers. This was incredibly beautiful!
Tropical ✌️🌸🌻
Monterey Pop started many careers. What a great time to be alive. It wasn't all peace n flowers, but definitely more individualism and true talent. Keep being you darlin. ❤😊
Tropical boy, thank you. Shankar's daughter, Anoushka Shankar, plays as well as her father. I had the pleasure of seeing her. She is still giving concerts today. TH-cam is full of Indian music and Indian dance, which you would like. It's a magical spirituality.
It was a different world back then I believe the music of the 60s and 70s changed the paradigm. Nothing like it since.
This is the first time America heard this on a large scale. POW!
Audience cameos were Jimi Hendrix, Mike Bloomfield (legendary blues guitarist with The Electric Flag), and Michelle Phillips (singer in The Mamas and the Papas, the group that organized this music festival).
There were other artists that incorporated Indian musical motifs, especially Richie Havens (on Something Else Again album), and the Rolling Stones (on Their Satanic Majesties Request album), as well as George Harrison (Beatles).
I saw Jimi! That was it though lol I heard there was a ton of cameos
Ravi Shankar said it would take many lifetimes to master the sitar. He also said he would need to come back for more lessons. Amazing!!
Tropical, beautiful, emotional, brilliant!
They are not even breaking a sweat! Unreal.
He is incredible! Also I would bet serious $$ that that is Mickey Dolenz (the Monkees) at 18:15
Yep, you are right.
Thanks for this reaction. I've listened to and recorded Indian Classical music for 50 years but I haven't seen this particular video. Minor point his last name was pronounced SHANK-KAR. He was the major one to introduce Indian classical to the Western World (not just George Harrison). Ravi had 2 daughters of note: Norah Jones and Anouskha Shankar; both excellent musicians.
If you want more Indian/Western blended music try Shatki (with John McLaughlin.
Tropic. You know all those things you want to go do? You should go do them. You know all those cool places you'd like to go to? Make them.
Tropical - pretty appropriate for this particular vid for sure. Nice choice, Lee - Ravi Shankar was a beast, I never get tired of this and his performance at the Concert for Bangladesh. Great choice, and awesome reaction as always, glad you dug this as much as I did the first time I saw it. Peace and love from Canada ☮
The audience is so absorbed and intense.
A MUST HEAR Classic track,, Billy Thorpe "Children Of The Sun" (Exclusive Video)
...TRUST ME on this one my music lovin' brother. 🔥
Yes!!!
I saw Pandit Ravi ji play live 3 times, have loved his music since I was 13 in '64.
I saw Ravi with George Harrison's North American tour in 1974 and then again many years later. Also saw Anoushka in concert many years ago.
Tropical mate, some of his best are ragas and talas, he speaks directly to the soul.
Thanks for posting that. I forgot how awesome Ravi was. Now I see who inspired John McLaughlin and The Mahavisnu Orchestra. The brilliance is exhausting. ❤❤❤
I was 19 years old when this festival was held. But I didn’t get to go to it.
An incredible performance! I was fortunate enough to see him in concert twice and it was a moving experience both times. His daughter, Anoushka Shankar, is a great sitar player also, and keeps his musical lineage alive.
@L33Reacts Ravi's daughter Anoushka is also a gifted sitar player. She played at George Harrison's celebration concert after he passed away
Tropical.... Of course I was with you. Hahaha.... This is someone who listens to the Ravi Shankar part of Concert for Bangaldesh and doesn't skip over it. After all he taught George so you have to give the man some brownie points. And man those were two classical masters at the height odf their game... And yes.. that was Jimi in the audience, picking up some tips. And so many more musicians too.. including Micky Dolenz from The Monkees. Keep on Rocking young sir.
He is so damn good love his music 🎵
I like to hear Ravi playing sitar🤘
Anything from Monterey pop is good… but THIS is TROPICAL !
Was in a pub in Ireland and these musicians played a long piece like this and it was chaotic in a way, and they ended abruptly. Crazy. Then the main guy cleared tables during break.
I'll be of to the tropical grocery after I catch up on your videos 😊. Thanks, Lee, and glad to see you enjoying so many things new to you ❤.
TROPICAL!!!
Alla Rakah is as talented as Ravi in his tabla playing. It’s positively tropical. I love how they answer each other.
You need to review, Within You Without You, to hear what George could do with what he learned from this man
Absolutely loved this. Definitely not “tropical” music
Cool coincidence, there was a prof. Ravi Shankar that taught at the Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology 👍🏼
There was a shot of Monkee Mickey Dolenz in the crowd when the music ended.
It was a hippy dippy tropical time. Daughter Nora Jones is worth a look at.
AWESOME YOU DID IT!!!
To understand truly how mind blowing this was in 1967 , go back about 10-15 years and check out what people were listening to back then. I mean it was good in it’s own right some of it great, but it was so white bread compared to what came in the mid late 60s and early 70s.
🌴 Tropical!!!!!
Tropical Dude, Very Tropical...
quite tropical...so glad you got into that!
Tropical, Ravi was singer Nora Jones father, check out her music.
Tropical!
Thanks
It was the time when a lot of young adults were spouting the mantra, "Turn on, tune in, drop out. For many, Purple Blotter was the drug of choice. No matter the weather, it was always tropical.
Saw him in 1971 in PA. Some people left. My girlfriend meditated.
Watch. The Animals " Down in Monterey" it is a biopic of the first Monterey International Pop Festival that pre - dated Woodstock. It us a very well done video history in song form.
You might enjoy George Harrison's Concert for Bangladesh album which starts off with Ravi and friends. It was a joy to witness your response to this moment in time.
I am tickled you have a patron who chose this. Unfortunately I am not, but I did suggest this to you after you commented on George Harrison’s sitar playing from Revolver. Awesome choice!
Love how it took almos 9 minutes to get to the musicians on stage! 😊
And why would I let my mind wander to some tropical place when I came here for this? The back and forth interplay was insane!
I knew I remembered someone else mention this!! What a performance. So much energy and passion. Like you said, it took forever but I LOVED seeing what life looked like actually in 67. So awesome
I was so happy to see how much you enjoyed that. I know you often say you wish you were there. I get it. So do I. I was just young enough to be not old enough.
But Monterey Pop was the first and in a way the last large music festival of its kind. Fans in the US had not seen or heard of Jimi Hendrix and The Who and those close up were a bit alarmed at the Who’s violent instrument smashing antics.
Monterey was an idea born in San Francisco but it was the successful bands from LA who pulled it together. San Francisco was a very pastoral, laid back sound featuring bands like Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Jefferson Airplane, etc.
Only 2 years later Woodstock was maybe the last peaceful festival.
Later that year at a Rolling Stones free concert at Altamont Speedway in California, people were killed at the hands of the Hells Angels who were acting as security for the band. (I saw you raise your eyebrows when you saw that Angel dude in the Ravi clip. Mine raised too cause I know how it played out later.)
Anyway, yeah, I would have loved to have been there too.@@L33Reacts
If you play The Rolling Stones Paint It Black live you will be able to see Brian Jones playing the sitar in that song Brian Jones was the founder of The Rolling Stones and a member of the 27 Club he was also able to play just about any instrument with strings
More than just strings. He plays recorder ("Ruby Tuesday") and marimba ("Under My Thumb") with the Stones, blows sax with The Beatles ("You Know My Name..." I think it was) and that's him on the Vibraslap in the opening bars of the Hendrix version of "All Along The Watchtower". He had an amazing ability to know what sound was needed and add it.
ps---that WAS jimi you saw sitting in the audience..... that was the vibe of that concert.🌸
I knew it!! I was like "Jimi??"
Check out his performance on George Harrison's The Concert for Bangladesh album. Immaculate.
So many shallow saucers with bery little rain water passing as lives....sad
(tropical)...
tropical. lol and I love this. It is sooooo good. Yeh we need to create a new energy like this. Yeh George and the Beatles pretty much brought the east to the west. Richness and it was a time of incredible creativity..it was everywhere..anyway peace
Tropical 🌴
This is the singer Norah Jone’s father.
Ravi Shankar.
All you metal head guitarists, THIS is TRUE SHREDDING.
That also goes for fans of Allan Holdsworth, of which I am one.
Tropical
I'm 64 today, but in 1967 I was only 7 years old and so far too young for Monterey and Woodstock.
Epic❤
TROPICAL sounds, just incredible.
Well, that was tropical and what not...His daughter is no slouch either.
Great Who performance at the Monterey Pop festival you have to check it out
You didn’t have to be on drugs, we respected musicians and their art ☮️
Eric Burdon and the Animals have the song called Monterey about the Monterey Pop Festival react to Monterey by The Animals
Check out Eric Burdon, Monterey. Keep up the fine work.
Thanks for a great reaction. Tremendous music and performance. Watching concert videos, I too wonder about the people in the audience, how it affected them, where they went with their lives, etc.
Tropical
Aishwarya Shankar his older daughter is just as good with this instrument and the tabouleh player here has a son that plays with her. She is absolutely stunning and so very talented.
I believe the word you're looking for is 'tabla', as tabouleh is a type of food from the Middle East.
Cracked me up! 😂😂
George was taught sitar by ravi. India is a tropical country by the way.
The music led people there
He's Nora Jones's dad. Jim
Where do I even begin? So much to say yet what can I say? I know I will be moving to the sounds of Ravi Shankar under tonight's full moon. Don't even get me started on your commentary. "So many intersecting points in our lives with other people and other spirits. We're on this infinite loop of bumping into each other, making the same mistakes and hopefully learning from them eventually." I'm not going to quote your words on time travel. People need to watch it for themselves if they haven't yet! Tropical.
That time travel thing gives me goosebumps. I think I'm on to something there.
I think you are too
TRIPICAL. Haha. Indian classical music is so different than western conceptions. RAGA. Tones and rhythmic structures, moods and improvisation. Check it out. Way too much to mention here. LOVED your reaction. Thanks for this pick!
Definitely tripical lol loved it bro. Glad you enjoyed it too. This was a much needed Chakra realignment for me.
@@L33Reacts
Congratulations on your first trip to the tropics, brother.
You have taken your first step into the wider World of music. A journey that most Americans, even musicians, never make. I'm very proud of you. 🤗
I'm ready for it all!! This was awesome. I'm happy to branch out 😀😀
Tropic
I believe that Ravi’s daughter is Norah Jones. She’s a singer.
the moment the culture shifted....
tropical. Just think, 1967 and 99% of these folks had never heard anything like this before.
Tropical Bro’
😊👍🎇
You should make a study of the tablas,they(indians) have a completely different music system than ours which the drummer for Tool incorporated into his playing.I have some suggestions if you're interested.
Ravi Shankar and Alla Rakha did a wonderful cooperation with Yehudi Menuhin who was one of the best known classical violinists of the last century combining the music of two different worlds.
th-cam.com/video/hg6nTQFHf78/w-d-xo.html
Ravi's daughter Anoushka followed this tradition and cooperated with one of my favorite today's classical violinists Patricia Kopatchinskaja. Also fascinating to watch and listen:
th-cam.com/video/7F5HND4F6Fo/w-d-xo.html
or if you are patient enough for 1.5 hours listening to them : Hommage an Yehudi Menuhin from 2016 th-cam.com/video/F8xbyurG8v0/w-d-xo.html
Tropical gas.
Ravi Shankar - sitar
Alla Rakha - tabla (percussion)
Kamala Chakravarty - tambura
So Ravi popularized Hindustani or Indian Classical music in the US. One of the ways he did it was to shorten the usual raga length. This is a good example of an extremely shortened version of a raga. Most Americans don't have the patience for an entire raga. And Indian Classical music isn't played by musicians on drugs or intended for audiences on drugs. Another difference in this performance. (tropical?)
🌴🍍🏖️
( TROPICAL)
Yes it was jimi in the audience
I’m sure I saw grace slick from Jefferson airplane
And I think the mamas and the papas are in the audience also
Fun fact
Norah Jones is his daughter from an affair he had with a woman I believe in the music business in California
Also yes he was George Harrison s teacher and friend
From google search
Harrison was 58 years old. Harrison died in the company of his wife, Olivia, his son, Dhani, Ravi Shankar and Shankar's wife, Sukanya, and daughter, Anoushka
tropical yeah far out
Indian classical music and Ragas are much more complex than pop music.
