O’s Notes: The legendary Indian sitarist Ravi Shankar is 92 years old and remains a vibrant force in the world of music. The Living Room Sessions started with Ravi and Tanmoy Bose (tabla) jamming and evolved into this four-song set that includes Kenji Ota (treble tempura) and Barry Phillips (bass tempura). Age has not adversely impacted Shankar’s ability. In fact he is in rare form. Lovers of this genre will treasure this release.
