I've always heard that before he passed, Miles was interested in working with Hendrix, and it might've been him instead of John. No disrespect to John, who's brilliant of course, but it remains a fascinating what-if.

This is pretty good, but I don't think "The McLaughlin Group" is anywhere near this trippy.

I never even heard of this album but Dennis Miller mentioned it. Been checking it out in here & it's quite interesting to say the least...

Back again. I see its been two months. When I was 12 (1972), my uncle bought me Bitched Brew. I was 12 for Christ's sake. All I had figured out was the Partrige Famlly and the Jackson 5. I just started learning Black Sabbath.You can pretty much play Sabbath on one string. And I did! Then they stuck this in my ear. John McLaughin. Holy shit man, I was only 12! Twisted, man. Cat is twisted! Well, I was already smoking weed so I guess it was time. Blew my mind. Still does.

The electric piano work by Chick and Joe are spellbinding.

Great track, but you have to hear the whole album right through. the interweaving polyrythms are just sumptious and spellbinding, i, obviously don't have the vocabulary to cope with such a landmark piece of musical skills. i'm allways hearing something new every time i listen to this, love it !!

Amazing - true legend, transcendent of the limits imposed by merely being an instrumentalist - a guitarist, a saxophonist, etc - John McLaughlin and just about everyone in Miles various band are Supreme Musicians.
