An Interesting Take on “Jumpin’ Jack Flash”

Ananda Shankar was a Bengali musician (the nephew of the more famous Ravi Shankar) who moved to the US to play rock’n’roll with a number of people, including Jimi Hendrix.  He also found time to record sitar-based covers of rock classics.

Larry found this version of “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” from his 1970 album, Snow Flower.
