Mehrpouya - Soul raga (1976)

"This song was released by Abbas Mehrpooya, known by many different spellings of his last name. Mehrpooya was an ambassador of the sitar in Iran, and his skills on the classical Indian instrument were legendary in Tehran during the early '70s. His sound places Ananda Shankar-style funk amidst Fela Kuti-inspired Afrobeat. He inspired at least one set of copycats, making sitar-funk an interesting sub-genre for the intrepid -- and deep-pocketed -- collectors of global psychedelic funk to obsess over." ⊙ Facebook :  / psychophono   ⊙ MIxcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/PSYCHOPHONO ⊙ Instagram:   / psychophono   We do not own the rights.This is strictly non-profit and not for commercial use.We uploaded it for entertainment, educational and inspirational purposes only.
