Bengali Prayer

A brief piece, track three of the first disc of the Lost Master Tapes.
Robbie Basho, from Song of the Avatars: The Lost Master Tapes

At 1:18 it is one of the shortest pieces in the set. It is an archival track from the unreleased studio tapes rather than a release of the 1960s to 1980s. No source we found states its writer, recording date, studio, personnel or subject, and no artist commentary exists. The title sits among his Indian-influenced work, and his teacher Ali Akbar Khan was from Bengal, but no source ties the piece to him and we do not claim it. We found no chart history, video, covers or samples, and setlist.fm shows no performance of it.
