Large as Life and Twice as Natural
Large as Life and Twice as Natural is an album by British musician Davey Graham, released in 1968.

Even Graham's singing sounds better than usual. Graham offers some decent blues, but more interesting are his frequent excursions into raga folk-rock of sorts, especially on "Blue Raga" (learned from Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan). The raga-jazz interpretation of Joni
