Wow Rich! The memories came flooding back for me. We would frequent the Hare Krishna temple in Adelaide South Australia in the mid 1970's for the great food in the mornings post gigging.
 
Does anyone know whether the Indian musical scales are the same as western music?

Indian scales can have 22 intervals versus the 12 intervals in western music. I have heard quarter tone composition in western music that would be the exception. Variations could be multiple!
