Question I wish to obtain some eastern music to digest

Can anyone recommend some good Ravi Shankar songs/albums or stuff from other Sitar(or Surbahar, which is essentially a bass sitar) players? I've been interested in these kinds of sounds for awhile, but the thought to ask around never occoured to me till now.

I know this is a guitar forum, but since it's the music dicscussion section I thought I'd post it here.

Just point me in the right direction, since I don't know where to start .

how about eastern European?

Gogol Bordello, gypsy punk!

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.

Then we could always get into eastern-influenced metal . . .
Melechesh, Orphaned Land, Salem, Nile . . . I'm probably missing a bunch, but that's what's occuring to me at the moment. I've exposed you to a little Nile already, Nile being one of my preferred bandses . . .

not Truely eastern, but eastern inspired... Mahavishnu Orchestra.

BTW, the best 'middle Eastern sounding' metal band is Melechesh. Hands down. This isnt my opinion, its a fact.

Thy ways by my desires

Bregaladar is on a distinguished road
Check out Ghazal's CD called "The Rain," Amazon has some samples but they don't quite do justice as each track is 15+ minutes.
