I love his stuff, but there are some other Indian musicians I love even more.
Brij Bhushan Kabra's work with integrating modified slide guitar into Indian classical music is incredible.
I also just picked up a mint copy of a late 60s LP by Lakshmi Shankar, who is a great female vocalist in the raga tradition.
Also, Pandit Pran Nath's vocal raga work is masterful, and through his work he is considered one of the fathers of modern minimalism. Truly astounding.
Ashish Khan is incredible as well.
If anyone can find an LP on Nonesuch called "The Pulse Of Tanam," get it immediately! This is an LP of Vina solos; the vina is an incredible instrument of India, and these Nonesuch LPs are great and never very expensive.

Yeah the Ali Akbar Khan album is awesome it has a dueling banjos feel to it.
The Jehudi Mehudin stuff is great as well. I have Ravi live in NY on vinyl original press & that's a dope album.
