RIP Ravi. Some of my favorite Beatles songs are the ones he directly influenced.
surgery at 92? that's pretty risky, RIP.
What a life lived!
RIP. To live until 92 with family was a blessing. Hope your rocking in the afterlife, sir.
Rip. never a fan, but wish him well on his journey
92, a job well done. I'm gonna die at 84, so I'm kinda jealous!
He brought sounds never heard. Such a wonderful life! RIP
I believe he had a heart valve replaced on December 6th and never really recovered.
He influenced the soundtrack of a generation, and his daughter Anoushka continues his legacy.
Disappointed I never got to see him. RIP.
May the next leg of your journey be even greater than the one now past, Mr. Shankar.
What an impact he had! May he rest in peace - a life well lived.
RIP.
Wow. What an incredible life. His music is so beautiful. And he was the father of one of my favorite voices of all time, Norah Jones.
I wonder if he and Norah were reconciled? Last I heard, they were estranged.
Rest in peace. 92 is a great full life.
RIP. loved his work with the Beatles. I think George was the most influenced and some of his best music is attributed to Ravi.
I listened to a lot of his music, starting in the late '60s. I'll miss him.
I remember him most from late night television commercials a la Slim Whitman, Yani and the pan flute dude.
Zamfir!
