Raga Rock was released on the World Pacific label and recorded by a group called the Folkswingers. A group by the same name, made up of Glen Campbell and three members of the Dillards, had recorded a 1963 album for World Pacific called 12 String Guitar! For the 1966 project, World Pacific brought in a different group of players and called them, also, the Folkswingers. Raga Rock was an attempt to cash in on the increasing use of the sitar and other Indian instruments and techniques in pop music  . Harihar Rao (January 21, 1927 - January 13, 2013) was a noted Hindustani musician, noted for playing tabla and sitar. Rao explored a variety of fusions of Indian and western music.
