Badass sitar music

Anyone have any suggestions on some chill sitar music, or a genre that incorporates it nicely?
Thanks

The only sitar music I know is from Ravi Shankar. I have 3 of his albums from the 60's. I have those albums because I wanted the Ravi Shankar albums that people were listening to at the height of the psychedelic movement.

Posted this in another thread a while back:
It's not a traditional sitar, but an electric one. It's fucking good music.

Good point, PW. You about covered it as far as Beatles are concerned. I'm impressed that you remembered "The Inner Light". I think "Nowhere Man" has some sitar, but you covered the major sitar laden Beatles songs. Download George Harrison's out of print, debut album "Wonderwall Music". There's a good bit of raga music on that album. One song sounds a great deal like "Within You Without You", in fact.
There's a lot of sitar on Timothy Leary's "Turn On, Tune In, Drop Out" (soundtrack) album also. Get that.

the video you posted was awesome as well! it really makes you think how different eastern and western music is. They have completely different scales, notes even!

Hahaha, I was about to say that. If you listen, you can hear it all the way through. Guess I'm going to have to "listen" through my archives aka my iPod...

Some of these Beatles songs actually have tambouras, which are similar to sitars.
Also, the studio version of "Dark Star" has sitar.
