Best Answer

One that comes to mind is 'Within you and without you", maybe a few others; George took lessons from Ravi Shankar so there are probably more...

The first sitar appearance in a song recorded by The Beatles was in "Norwegian Wood" on Rubber Soul. This was before George had any formal sitar instruction and had just picked one up after hearing it used by a few other bands like The Kinks and The Yardbirds.

How were African music and The Beatles related?

Being a hardcore Beatles fan, I don't recall The Beatles having any relations with African music. In fact, I think you meant Indian music. During the later part of the 1960s, The Beatles traveled to India for meditation with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. George Harrison was best known for picking up on how to play the Sitar, which is an Indian instrument. It's kind of like a guitar, but it has this different sound to it. You can hear George playing the sitar in one of their songs called "Norwegian Wood". It's the sound at the beginning of the song. Hoped this helped!
