Raga Rock

Raga Rock is a genre of music that combines elements of Indian classical music with rock and roll. It originated in the late 1960s and early 1970s, when Indian musicians began to experiment with blending traditional Indian music with Western rock music. The genre is characterized by its use of Indian instruments such as the sitar, tabla, and tambura, as well as its incorporation of Indian musical scales and melodic structures. It is also known for its use of improvisation and extended instrumental solos. Raga Rock has been popularized by artists such as The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and Ravi Shankar.
