    RIP. I guess without his inspiration George Harrison would never have written some of his greatest tunes.

    My ears never really became comfortable with the raga sounds but his collaboration with world artists such as Yehudi Menuhin most certainly had a massive influence around the world. I loved the gentleness of the man and there was a raga he played on TV with his first born daughter that was quite beautiful to watch. I'll settle happily with part of his legacy namely Norah's singing. RIP
