For many western listeners, the first time they heard Indian classical music, or at least something resembling it, was on a Beatles record. One of the many flavours that makes up the sound of The Beatles is there free and open use of Indian instrumentation, practices and techniques. Ranging from small seasonings, like Lucy In The Sky, to full on tributes, like Within You Without You, The Beatles discography features various excursions to the subcontinent.
