Seeq and Ye Shall Find (The Beatles)
Listening to music on Seeqpod, a recent favourite pastime of mine. "I'll listen to the Beatles today." I search on Seeqpod, add to playlist, add, add, add... Many songs heard before, many new... Good! Good! I listen while working. Arranging papers etc. Standing up. "Hey what's this song? Doesn't seem Beatles... But it's peppy. I listen listen..."
Well, Beatles were influenced by Maharshi Mahesh Jogi (of Trancendental Meditation fame). Harrison learnt Sitar from Pt Ravi Shankar. This was composed by Harrison.

May be, this is because the Beatles were such a big fan of Ravi Sankar!
