John Handy's jazz-Indian music fusions are perhaps the most successful-- Karuna Supreme (MPS) and Rainbow (MPS). Dave Holland played a concert in Dallas in 2017 with a group of mixed jazz and Indian classical musicians that was fantastic--I don't think the group has recorded. There is Good Hope, a scaled down trio version, but with only Chris Potter and Zakir Hussain. Aakash Mittal is an alto saxophonist playing in the same vein as Rudresh Mahanthappa that I heard at the Ragas Live Festival a few years ago in a trio with Rez Abassi on guitar. Sameer Gupta, who I heard at the same festival, is a percussionist with Marc Cary, who combines jazz and Indian music in his own recordings. There's also a John Mayer recording of more recent vintage (1996) that is quite good. https://smile.amazon.com/John-Mayers-Indo-Fusions-1997-01-01/dp/B01K8QOISU/ref=sr_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=John+Mayer%27s+Indo+Jazz+Fusions&qid=1630943091&s=music&sr=1-3

Nothing Is was also my first Sun Ra LP, in school in Austin at the time. That first side, and John Gilmore on Dancing Shadows, started me on the Sun Ra path. The guys at the record store had seen Sun Ra at some legendary performance at the Armadillo World Headquarters, as I recall.

Not to mention, John Handy, Dave Holland, Charles Lloyd, Aakash Mittal, and Sameer Gupta. And there's: https://brooklynragamassive.bandcamp.com
