Can you feel the "Shakti"? Fusing indian classical

Can you feel the "Shakti"? Fusing indian classical music with elements of jazz, Shakti was the brainchild of English jazz guitarist John McLaughlin. They toured all over India from 1974 to 1978, with Indian violin player L. Shankar, percussionists Zakir Hussain (on tabla) and T. H. "Vikku" Vinayakram (on Ghatam).
This clip represents very well what their music was all about: the amalgamation of multiple different cultures and philosophies through music.

We're obsessed with our latest #LockdownJazzCollab

We're obsessed with our latest #LockdownJazzCollab! Lilting vocals, a flawless arrangement and just a touch of Carnatic flair bring new life to this evergreen Jazz standard "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" by Ella Fitzgerald, @firstladyofsong .

The beautiful vocals you hear are by @forms_expressions ; Singer, Performer and Bandleader Reya. She is a classically-trained multi-genre singer and also the leading woman of The A.R Rahman Funk Collective.

Manning the keys and the arrangement of the song is multi-genre Instrumentalist, Producer, Composer and Educator @sujoy.keys.xscape . His interests lie in genres from Indian Classical to Jazz, to Neo-Soul, Fusion and even Lo-Fi.

Last but most certainly not least, we have @abhaynayampallyguitar , bringing the spice with his Carnatic Guitar. He has released a solo album, produced music for movies and worked with some of the biggest names in India, in both Jazz and Classical!
