He had a remarkable story to tell, and he brought to the task the same contrasting qualities that made him as uncommon a man as a musician: that mixture of charm and candour, of dignity and humility, of deep spirituality and wide-eyed, impish fun. Ravi Shankar was the world’s foremost sitar-virtuoso and composer, the man christened by George Harrison as the ‘Godfather of World Music’, who spearheaded the international spread of Indian culture. Now 23 years later, on the occasion of the centenary of Ravi Shankar’s birth, we are delighted to release the final 450 copies in this critically acclaimed edition.

In 1994, George Harrison persuaded Ravi Shankar to write his autobiography, to celebrate the great musician’s 75th birthday. ![]()
