   Now THAT would be a fun game to play, although the playlist would be a little limited. Paint it Black by the Rolling Stones is the first song that came to mind. After that, I haven’t a clue.

   Yup, he was an Encinitas resident, and a quiet, gentle soul

    He’s the only Sitar player I know. It’s like accordion players.

    George Harrison played sitar. Learned from Shankar, of course; but “Norwegian Wood” is the song credited with introducing the sitar to the Western world. It’s said that Harrison was so nervous to be playing the sitar on a recording for the first time that the sitar part was overdubbed onto the recording. I play nose sitar myself. Works real good whenever “Norwegian Wood” or “Paint It Black” shows up on the radio (or, in the former case, in my playlist).
