I had the great good fortune to see Ravi Shankar, when I was 10.
If you like Shankar, check out Chivkumar Charma.
Charma is to the santoor (Indian hammered dulcimer) as Shankar is to the sitar.
Shankar's tablas player Alla Rakha, had a son, Zakir Hussein who also plays tablas. Hussein plays tablas with Charma. They are also proof of the existence of God.
