Indian Vinyl Records
Indian classical music operates on a scale most Western records don't even attempt — Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan stretching ragas across entire album sides, hypnotic and transporting. Then there's the Bollywood film-score universe (the legendary R.D. Burman among them), an absolutely enormous body of music that diggers and producers have been mining for decades. Add devotional and folk recordings and you've got a section that rewards patience and an open ear.
What You'll Find Here
Hindustani and Carnatic classical, Bollywood and Indian film scores, devotional and folk LPs — a mix of imports, originals, and reissues. The classical end rewards deep listening; the Bollywood end is pure crate-digging gold. If you're new to it, ask — a good entry point changes everything here.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I start with Indian classical vinyl?
Ravi Shankar is the famous gateway, and deservedly so. From there, Ali Akbar Khan and the broader raga tradition open up. Give a full side your undivided attention — that's how it's meant to work.
Is Bollywood music collectible?
Increasingly, yes. The vintage film scores — R.D. Burman especially — are heavily dug by producers and collectors worldwide, and the good ones are getting harder to find.
Imports or domestic pressings?
Largely imports and reissues — much of this only ever pressed in India. Pressing details are noted per listing.
