The title of this tune is actually "I Know", but it is from Shankar's 1984 ECM release Song For Everyone. Beautiful record, I still listen to it know and then, with some of my personal favourite Garbarek playing.
About L. Shankar: After obtaining a Bachelor's degree in Physics in India, Shankar moved to America in 1969 and earned a doctorate in ethnomusicology at Wesleyan University. Here he met jazz musicians Ornette Coleman, Jimmy Garrison, and John McLaughlin while working as a teaching assistant and concert master of the University Chamber Orchestra. In 1975 Shankar and McLaughlin founded Shakti, a pioneering, groundbreaking and highly influential east-meets-west collaboration, with a fluid sound that managed to successfully combine seemingly incompatible traditions. His first solo album, Touch Me There, was produced by Frank Zappa in 1979.[3] Shankar founded his own band - The Epidemics, in 1982, with the composer Caroline. He released three albums with the band. During the 1980s, Shankar recorded periodically as a leader, doing both jazz-based material and Indian classical music. His 1980 release of the album Who's To Know on ECM introduced the unique sound of his own invention, the ten-string, stereophonic double violin. This instrument, designed by Shankar and built by noted guitar maker Ken Parker, covers the entire orchestral range, including double bass, cello, viola and violin. He has recently developed a newer version of his instrument which is much lighter than the original.[3] 1990 saw Shankar co-producing a one hour film directed by H. O. Nazareth, which went on to be nominated for Best Documentary film at the Cannes film festival. Shankar worked on the score of the film The Last Temptation of Christ (1988),composed by Peter Gabriel, with his music ending up on both albums of the score - Passion: Music for The Last Temptation of Christ and Passion - Sources. He won a Grammy for his work on the latter in 1994. 1996 saw a Grammy nomination for the album Raga Aberi.[1] Shankar has performed on several of Peter Gabriel's records such as So and Us. Since 1996, Shankar has toured internationally with fellow-violinist (and his niece) Gingger as "Shankar & Gingger", garnering critical acclaim and popularity.[4] The two performed at events including the Concert for Global Harmony and Nelson Mandela's 80th birthday celebrations. Shankar & Gingger released their first DVD One in a Million in 2001. After a critically successful tour of North America, the DVD went to number 1 on the Neilsen Soundscan DVD charts and stayed there for four weeks.[3] In 2004, Shankar composed additional music with Gingger Shankar for John Debney and performed on the score for the film The Passion of the Christ (2004). Shankar has played with some of the greatest musical contemporaries of his time, including Lou Reed, Echo & the Bunnymen, Talking Heads, Frank Zappa, Peter Gabriel, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Phil Collins, Charly García, Jonathan Davis, Bruce Springsteen, Van Morrison, Stewart Copeland, Yoko Ono, A. R. Rahman, John Waite, Steve Vai, Ginger Baker, Toto, Nils Lofgren, Mark O'Connor, and Sting.[3] Shankar has been praised for his ability to mix Eastern and Western influences, assimilating Carnatic music with pop, rock, jazz and contemporary world music.[5] He admits "Ultimately, I would like to bring the East and West together. That, I think, is my role," he says. More recently, Shankar has used a new stage name, Shenkar, and has created recordings under this name. In 2006 2007, Shenkar provided the vocals for the opening credit music and other themes for all episodes of the hit TV series Heroes. He has been lately working in Jonathan Davis', Stephen Day and Ana Maria Lombo's next records.
EF: Thanks for the informative write-up. I saw Shankar, Gingger and Zakir at a church in Portland, Oregon, in November 2002. Great show!! P.S.: I didn't know who Gingger wa sat the time. Mystery solved, thanks to you.
It seems to me this is not the same we can hear on the "Song for Everyone" album. I have it on vinyl and it's one of my big favourites. Thank you and hugs for putting it on youtube!
the abscence of negativity is the reflective meditation that attracts us all. Redefining cultural admission in arts is not often practised , it is realized. Thank you for this lift to aspiration.
Outstanding musicians. I must admit that "the guy with tabla" manages to make them talk. 😂 seriously, Shankar, Hussein, Trilok Gurtu and Jan Garbarek.....a masterpiece could not fail to come out
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing. I think it was 1986 when Oregon toured Sri Lanka together with Trilok Gurtu. Caught 2 shows; one in Colombo and one in Kandy. Those were unforgetable nights. BTW, L Shankar grew up in Jaffna, Sri Lanka.
I think its from these album: Jan Garbarek Quartet Live in Hollabrunn 1985-07-06 Lineup: Jan Garbarek: ts, ss L.Shankar: electric violin Trilok Gurtu: percussion Nana Vasconcelos: percussion, voc
