Produced by George Harrison, Shankar Family & Friends is an almost-forgotten masterwork — an emotional and sonic pact on which two like-minded souls unite musical styles, cultures, and sounds in wondrous fashion. It's also the second album Harrison's Dark Horse Records released, setting the tone for the label and precedent for a friendship that lasted the remainder of Harrison's life.

Sourced from the original analog tapes and pressed at RTI, Mobile Fidelity's numbered-edition 180-gram LP presents the album in restored sound that illustrates the beauty of the playing, compositions, and chemistry. Yet it does so much more in the transparent way it showcases the textures, spiritualism, and breadth of compositions primarily recorded by Harrison, Shankar, and an array of distinguished guests at A&M Studios. The inviting aura, generous spaciousness, and well-defined tonalities on this pressing combine to take the music to transcendent heights. Then there's the brilliant playing itself.
