These both look like good sites to start with, Peter:

Folk Music of India and,

Beat of Indian

I happend to go into a room on Paltalk called Sacred Music of India one night and it was marvelous. I've since tried to get in and it is now a locked room and I've not way fo getting the password. Paltalk won't even forward a request to the room admin. They were very accomplished singers and very gracious hosts.

This should be very interesting as threads go...thanks.
