cool nterpretation of a great song. conts, man. mahavishnu is so grat, I mean is one of the bands that changed my musical approach. Love to play guitar along Mr. John. haha

[wnorcott]

Thanks glad you like it. I saw Mahavishnu 3 times during Birds of Fire and Visions of the Emerald Beyond tours in the 70's

maybe you should change the title ths obviously has nothing to do with the mahavshinu orchestra!

[wnorcott]

What is it about "This is my version of Mahavishnu Orchestra meets boogie." that you fail to comprehend? This is an an original copyrighted work by me. If you want to download copyrighted Mahavishnu Orchestra songs for free might I suggest The Pirate Bay

[JEDIACE11]

Merry Christmas

If I called myself "Jedi Ace" I would not go around critiquing others' work lest I invite ridicule.

[JEDIACE11]

not mahavishnu orchestra,,lol

[wnorcott]

It is my arrangement of a Mahavishnu tune. so what do you want Jedi? Maybe you should juse the Jedi mind trick on me and demand you money back? Oh I forgot, you listened to it for free. LOL

[carefulplants]

full of suck.

[cfov]

Sure...suck all of the life and kinetic energy out of the song

zzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Power2theFlyingV]

woah is my brain fried?

[jlo3390]

what the hell is with people messing with Mahavishnu?

[mahavishnu111]

nooooooo....wot have they done wiv that timing???????argh...

[wnorcott]

I changed it to a 20/8 time signature because I like to lay a boogie groove on it, and because I know how to. I am not a drone who feels compelled to play everything as written with no originality as if it were a show tune or something. It's called arranging, try it some time. I am at the point now where I use whatever motif I feel like using in my music.

[mario21128]

i love renditions, bravo......im tired of hearing covers....this shit is on fire

[wnorcott]

Thanks for listening! Good to hear from somebody who appreciate A BIT OF ORIGINALITY not mindless copying. Thanks.

Bill

[mario21128]

dude thats exactly how i feel, renditions are the way too go, im in the works of a rendition of "Planetary Citizen"

[432hertz]

nice rendition! hypnotic

[wnorcott]

Thanks! I changed the time signature from the original 18/8 to 20/8 so the beat rocks a little bite more than the original.
