Violinist here is Jerry Goodman. This is the original Mahavishnu Orchestra line-up. JLP didn't join until they recorded Apocalypse several years after this.
Try that Dave Matthews Band!...I think not........This is real music.....Thank god for YouTube for keeping the memory of bands like this alive!...You don't get to see this everday on t.v.
Yes...correct...this is the end section of "You Know, You Know"...folks...walterkolosky here LITERALLY wrote the book on the Mahavishnu Orchesta...for real...check it out. My thanks to him for doing so.
Great stuff; great suggestion on the website; that site answers the question of whatever happened to this kind of pure musicality (in fact it's the only place McLaughlin promotes his music anymore). Lots of incredible stuff there.
billy cobham's solo is so great i have no words, perfection absolute.!

Good stuff...Mahavishnu is just on such a great musical level, so different and unique and talented, they all know their instruments really well!

Saw Billy Cobham in concert in a small venue
many years ago. They guy is all class.
Came out and gave a verbal drum clinic after the show,
signed autographs and was just generally a nice guy.
My seats were right behind him, as he was set up
on stage right facing the center of the stage.
Mindblowing. First time (and last time?) I'd seen a truely ambidextrous drummer.

"Power, Passion and Beauty: The Story of the Legendary Mahavishnu Orchestra" by Walter Kolosky.
Allaboutjazz.com says:
"Kolosky has finally righted a wrong, delivering a book that is as factual an account of the group's rise and fall as will likely ever be published…”
Walter Kolosky says: …it is my turn to pay the music back. “Power, Passion and Beauty” is my offering."

Virtuoso, but full of soul and spirit. Now that's something you don't see too often, specially on today's self-indulting individualistic virtuosos.
