Classic Rock/indian intro for a old rock song?

Question
Hello, I am looking for a song that has an Indian intro, I think it is the same instrument that is in "looser" from beck. But the rest of the song is old rock...I heard it on CHOM(97,7 FM in montréal) and it is an classic rock channel. The singer made me think about RUSH, I don't know if it's the same for you, but, for me , it's the kind of voice that, at first, I can't tell if it's a girl or a boy.

It's a really good song and I would be really happy if you can find it for me!

Thank you very much for your time!!

Answer
There's a rather lengthy song by Led Zeppelin called "In The Light", it has a rather droning, middle eastern sounding intro.  Of course, Robert Plant's voice was quite high pitched back then as well.  

I just also thought of "It Can Happen" by Yes - not a super old song (80s) but has indian elements to it.

That's about all I can guess with this one!
