Ananda Shankar

Moog Synthesizer Realizations by Paul Lewinson From the liner notes: "His Name Is Ananda. He's a young man with a sitar and a dream and his name means peace and joy. He's as Indian as the tradition in which he recieved his education as a classical musician. But he's excited about Led Zeppelin and Janis Joplin and electronic music.
