Today's the day, sixty-six years ago, that my brother joined me in this Mad, Mad World we live in. 
Being a life long Stones fan something from Messrs Jagger & Richards would be good. Though this famous composition comes with a twist, as you'll hear.
Ananda Shankar, nephew of well known sitar player Ravi Shankar, gives us his rendition of 'Jumping Jack Flash', from a 1970 LP release.

This post also doubles as a memory to all those Curry Houses of Hartfield Road, Wimbledon, that played Indian music to accompany the food and the flock wallpaper decor. Sadly all those restaurants have now gone. So let's ALL go Kaleidoscopic !  and imagine those poppadoms and half lager(s) of Dortmunder Union >

Hartfield Road Curry Houses: the Golden Tandoori*, Curry Royal & Chutneys and perhaps the original from the sixties the Taj Mahal*. [*not in picture] 
Sadly departed Curry restaurants plus Mica Cafe and Copperfield's Books - SW19
