Oh wow!!!! Everything about this is impossibly amazing - discipline, innovation, some of the best drumming you will EVER see, tremendously understanding & empathetic bass & guitar, real music, no trends, no fashion, no make up. A perfect human joy, thankyou.

The music of Magma, as those of King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Frank Zappa, Yes, Gong and much of the progressive rock is timeless and cannot be branded as 70's fusion.

@ejfbewhkwefknj OH WONDERFUL to see such a musical period so well summarized, and so pleasant to find some people who knew and appreciated that music ! So much elevator music on those days..

@autodidactbreather Really? I always thought it was a really fuzzy guitar.

[autodidactbreather]

on the LP, this is a keyboard solo... i though it was a guitar solo until Brian Godding himself told me it was a keyboard!

@jonsilence amazon,

[cringe8on2]

[senseitre]

Love it. I'd love to hear the wayne krantz trio have a go at this.

KOBAÏA ISS DE HÜNDIN.

[Tengent]

The perfect fuzz bass tone.

[PieterdeRooijHolland]

Great display of superb shared musicianship ! Almost thirty years after I bought this music on lp it sounds better than ever here in this concert. An electrifying performance !

I love 70's fusion and this is based on that. But the real good earlier 70's fusion was not "storebought" or commercial til late 70's when some fusion groups morphed into smooth jazz or disco funk groups, which then is not fusion anymore.

[progjazzfusion]

yes it does sound like 70's fusion...all the elements are there...many groups had a similar sound then, and a few now as well.

[FrozenStormrider]

That octave/harmonic thing that james macgaw does is absolutely insane!!

[Amseldrossler]

Jes it's him.

[Hazelduc]

Is James Mc Gaw here at the guitar;can't recognise

[nusrat1971]

this is what you get when every musician is listening to the rest of the band, genial interplay, Magma!!

[Prayermad]

70s fusion, man? are you actually listening?

[xylenz]

Ripping bass solo @ 5:50 !!!!

[floyddebarber]

This is the so called zEU(h)l.

[jonsilence]

If this is 'storebought' 70s fusion, I'd like to know the name of the store so I can go buy some.

James et Philippe, ils ont bien la vibration Magma.
