Based in San Francisco California, Shanti is a musical project which can be perceived as a reunion of notorious figures of Traditional Indian raga music (The Sarod player Ashish Khan and tabla player Zakir Hussain) and professional folk-jazzy rockin' musicians from the West. The term Shanti which means serenity, tranquillity of the self perfectly illustrates the beatific-enchanting and entrancing atmosphere which prevails in this relatively unknown album. The music reveals some astonishing improvised percussive, buzzing parts mixed with bombastic psychedelic rockin' sequences. Adding instruments such as sarod, dholak and tablas to their regular guitar/bass/drums line-up Shanti created an exotic, rootsy aura, never mind the spiritual lyrics. Zakir Hussain also played with Mickey Hart of the Grateful Dead on his Rolling Thunder album.
