Ended Monday and welcomed Tuesday after my swim with In New York an album by Hindustani classical musician Ravi Shankar. It was released in 1968 on vinyl.

In New York Review by Sean Westergaard

Although the liner notes allude to Shankar being in New York for a series of concerts at Philharmonic Hall, there is no indication from the recording that this is a live date; the notes simply state "recorded in New York City." Shankar is joined by longtime partner and tabla master Alla Rakha and Shyam But-Nagar on tamboura. The program consists of two morning ragas: the brief "Raga Bairagi" and "Nata Bhairavi," as well as an evening piece, "Raga Marwa." Due to the nature of LPs at the time, the ragas are slightly compressed for time, moving relatively quickly through the alap and jor portions of the raga.
