Mahavishnu Orchestra
"Mahavishnu"
|
John McLaughlin is regarded as one of the greatest guitarists in the history of music. Making albums from the 60's through the present, his intense guitar work with The "Mahavishnu" Orchestra and Miles Davis gave birth to jazz/fusion. In 1984 he formed a reincarnation of sorts of The "Mahavishnu" Orchestra. Featuring original "Mahavishnu" drummer Billy Cobham, plus saxophonist Bill Evans and bassist Jonas Hellborg, this alternately mellow and high-energy electric album is regarded as one of his best efforts and has been his most sought after album for CD reissue. It is making its worldwide CD debut!
