Raga rock

Raga rock is a term that is used to describe as genre of rock music in which the influence of Raga's music is noticeably appreciated, whether in the melody (by the use of raga), in harmony, in the rhythm or in the timbre (by means of instruments such as sitar and tabla or other Westerners that imitate its sound). It is not a well-defined genre, but a generic label that serves to describe any type of rock with Hindu influence. Given that this influence was felt especially in the rock of the 60s, the term is used above all to refer to recordings of that time, although there is no lack of examples of rock music with Hindu elements in the coming decades.
