Being a drummer/percussionist, I always liked the lengthy “Drums” portion of this one, mostly because it features the GREAT tabla player Shankar Ghosh (who died in Jan. 2016). Always one of my favorite tabla players because he played with such a flowing ‘groove’ which made him especially compatible to fitting in with non-Indian Classicial musicians, like the Dead, etc. who are even mentioned in this short bio of him:

(I think Shankar Ghosh might have also given some tabla lessons to Mickey Hart while he was teaching at the Ali Akbar Khan Music School in California in the late sixties–probably where they met and why he is on this extended drums segment.(?)
That’s very cool. Thanks for the info.
