Comment:

And now we tarry awhile on the sub-continent. There's been a bit of juggling & amending to avoid any duplication with DeadMan's exemplary Raga-O-Rama mix.
Like Vol 1 it starts with a spot of 60s English Freakbeat before settling into a more contemplative mainly instrumental mood. The sitars & tablas kick in at Tr 6. I'm not entirely sure about the suitability of the Ventures track but it's vaguely "oriental" feel can act as a bridge to the next vol.
A spot of politically incorrect stand-up concludes.
Next stop beyond the Bamboo Curtain.....

This looks tremendous. We really need to trade one of these days.

Yes. If this is half as good as the truly brilliant vol 1, then I'm in for a copy, big-style.

As someone who's obsession, (one of many), runs exactly in this river-and I've used many of these tracks, I absolutely love this mix. It's a sonic landscape I never tire of. Ever....beautiful plushpig. Beautiful.
