These Boots

Morning Raga

Half a century has passed since these recordings were made, yet the passage of time has done nothing to dim their transcendent beauty. You won't find any of the trappings of Western psychedelia- no phasing, no backwards guitars, no freeform wig-outs. But make no mistake, this is music designed to transport and elevate the listener in exactly the same way.
