Big Jim Sullivan track from the RPM Records CD 'Sitar Beat', soundtracking a great surf video by John Eldridge

After studying at the music school Big Jim Sullivan traded in his customary guitar for the sitar and created an uncanny fusion of Eastern and Western music on Sitar Beat. This album was originally released in the late 1960s, when the sitar and other Indian instruments enjoyed a certain degree of popularity in the West as 'exotic' flavors. The album features a mix of odes and originals with songs like "She's Leaving Home", "Whiter Shade Of Pale", "Sunshine Superman" and "Within Without You". 180 gram audiophile vinyl

Sitar beat is a uncanny but wonderful fusion of Eastern and Western music on one album! As you might have expected Big Jim Sullivan traded in his customary guitar for the sitar on this album. Sitar Beat is a great mix of odes and originals with songs like "shes leaving home", "a whiter shade of pale", "sunshine superman" and "within without you". The entire album is a wonderful excursion into the sitar raga-like Eastern music while not letting go of Western rock ideals. One person found this helpful.
