This wild psych-funk trip is a private pressing from Calutta, India circa late 1970s. Bharat Karki & Party [a bit like Take That, with a wider worldview] commendably attempted a truly international style here, mixing Latin and Arabic themes with Western psyche-funk played on domestic Indian instrumentation like Sitar and various percussion. The result is a heavily intoxicating album featuring five singers and 10 players that feels completely unbound by borders and order, possibly assisted by some good drugs and the talents of a deft bunch of young musicians. If you like your psyche-funk euphoric, exuberant and glorious, this will give you a funny turn. Ace!if you know more about India's psych scene, not indian classikal which is it's own brand of psych, but this kinda freak-out funkenfuzz type mess, testify! surely there must be more somewhere. 320 vinyl rip
