{"product_id":"rainy-day-raga","title":"Rainy Day Raga","description":"Personnel: Peter Walker (guitar); Monte Dunn (guitar); Jeremy Steig (flute); Bruce Langhorne (tambourine, bells); Jean-Pierre Merle (tambourine).\u003cbr\u003eLiner Note Author: Ski Williams.\u003cbr\u003eIllustrator: David Wilson.\u003cbr\u003ePhotographer: Rick Stafford.\u003cbr\u003ePeter Walker, world-traveled guitarist (Spain, Africa and Mexico) landed in the right place at the right time in the mid-'60s. A student of various musical forms, he ended up in Cambridge in 1965, and became musical director for Timothy Leary's 'Celebrations. Walker's modal guitar explorations fit the menu perfectly. Exploring a tonal range that would be best described as the perfect L.S.D. soundtrack, this album is a gentle, evocative affair, and often recalls some of the passages that Stephen Stills would use for \"Suite: Judy Blue Eyes,\" among others. Aided by Dylan session veteran Bruce Langhorn on percussion (and by others as well), this is a fine document of a space in time when ragas were just becoming popular in Western music. In a certain way, Walker was a visionary, and this album shows it. ~ Matthew Greenwald","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46208329187615,"sku":"029667041720","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/88f6e13b84a5eb96cd766040579f1c4b.jpg?v=1777882180","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/rainy-day-raga","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
