The record

Two ragas and nothing else: "Raga Lajwanti" and "Raga Todi," issued by Prestige in 1964 as PR 1079 in mono, with liner notes by Karl Yeargans. No accompanists appear in the credits. Give it whole sides rather than a track at a time -- the unfolding is the point here, and a record this patient does not survive being sampled.
