In the "dope samples" thread, I posted the sitar sample for Hiero's
"Oakland Blackouts".

There's more good ones.
List them.
There's a CNN affiliated one that was pretty popular when it dropped and I
can hear the beat in my head, but can't think of what the hell it was(not Superthug)..

Tried By 12 is a Japanese koto.
Been trying to find this tune for years and years. Had no idea what it was called, just the sitar and Guru on it. Thanks for identifying it.

there's a very short sitar loop used in ATCQ Bonita Applebum that's also used in Fugees version of Killing Me Softly. dunno what it's originally sampled off but I'm sure you know the one I'm referring to. a little 6 note sitar riff

thank you, i couldn't remember what that instrument is called but i'm also pretty sure it's not a sitar
the original song is Sakura by Odetta, it has a very japanese sound which figures as it comes from Odetta In Japan. I can't find more than a tiny snippet of the song though to back this up

^I don't know if these are Sitars or not. At this point, I don't care.
As long as it's close, and this is, I think.

Show's the cover, too. I bet it isn't even that rare a record.
