Earth Groove: The Voice Of Cosmic India

This is Pandit Pran Nath, he made one of my favorite meditation records ever. There is something truly cosmic and peaceful about this recording. Though I highly recommend purchasing the vinyl from Mississippi Records (link below) for the full audio experience (and to support an amazing record label), I have just located a digital download and wanted to share this audio with readers of this blog. Click on Earth Groove: Voice Of Cosmic India below and find some peace for yourself.

Containing two side-length ragas, this record, released on Mississippi "subsidiary" Change Records, was the first US release for noted singer and spiritual leader Pandit Pran Nath. Pran Nath collaborated with minimalist innovators La Monte Young and Terry Riley, and this record is a great example of the far-out, post-lingual aesthetic he helped to develop, and which was further explored by bands like Sun City Girls.
