COLLABORATIONS is a four-disc compilation box set by Indian classical musician Ravi Shankar and former Beatle George Harrison. The box set was issued on Dark Horse Records, distributed by Rhino Entertainment, on 18th October 2010 in Britain, and 19th October 2010 in the United States. It compiles two studio albums originally issued on that label – the long-unavailable Shankar Family & Friends (1974) and Ravi Shankar's Music Festival From India (1976) – and Chants Of India, first issued on Angel Records in 1997. Although all three albums were originally Shankar releases, for which Harrison served in the role of music producer and guest musician, both Shankar and Harrison are credited as artists on the box set. Each of the collaborative projects represents a departure from Shankar's more typical work as a sitarist and performer of Hindustani classical ragas, with the box set showcasing his forays into, variously, jazz and rock, Indian folk and orchestral ensembles, and devotional music. Shankar Family & Friends actually combines the work of Indian classical musicians with contributions of some Western jazz and rock musicians, including Harrison, Ringo Starr, Tom Scott, Klaus Voormann, Jim Keltner, and Billy Preston. The fourth disc of COLLABORATIONS is a DVD containing previously unissued film of a performance by the Music Festival From India, recorded at London's Royal Albert Hall in September 1974. Filmed by director Stuart Cooper, the footage required substantial restoration for its 2010 release. An audio-only track on the DVD, prepared by Anoushka Shankar and Paul Hicks, provides a more complete record of the concert.
COMPILATION INCLUDES:
DVD - Ravi Shankar’s Music Festival From India: LIVE AT THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL (1974);
CD1 - Ravi Shankar: CHANTS OF INDIA (1997);
CD2 - RAVI SHANKAR'S MUSIC FESTIVAL FROM INDIA (1976);
CD3 - SHANKAR FAMILY & FRIENDS (1974).
It's well-known that Ravi Shankar giving Harrison personal sitar instruction after the Beatle became interested in Indian music and religion in the mid-'60s. It's not so well-known that the relationship extended to collaborations, of sorts, on albums and concerts. Without downplaying the closeness of the two musicians' friendship and Harrison's genuine participation in all of these projects, it should be stated up front that this is much more Shankar's music than Harrison's, and much more Indian music than the rock for which Harrison was most famed. Issued nine years after Harrison's death, the limited-edition release coincided with celebrations for Shankar's 90th Birthday and was overseen by Harrison's widow, Olivia. Among the lavish packaging for the compilation, each disc appears inside enlarged, 8½-inch sleeves, and each copy of the set is individually numbered. An accompanying book contains a foreword by American composer Philip Glass, rare photographs documenting Shankar and Harrison's 35-year friendship, and commentary from both artists on the projects featured in the box set. While COLLABORATIONS presents only a portion of Shankar and Harrison's work together, music critics have recognised it as a successful representation of the far-reaching cultural legacy of their partnership. Unfortunately, some footage from the September 23, 1974 concert featured on the DVD has been lost. There's still about an hour to be seen, however, on the disc in this package, filmed in basic but competent style.
