@logochrysalis I'm with you 100%! Nearly identical testimony too. My friends came with me to hear them in D.C. but they never listened at home. I sure did. It was so intriguing, so technically & artistically innovative, I had to hear it again and again until memorized. A funny moment: when John requested a minute of silence, 10 seconds into it a guy yelled "times up!"

Beautiful piece. Once you've had a taste of the superior, to return to the inferior is unthinkable. Clearly the zenith of fusion.

I favorited this. Don't need to say anything else.

my friend used to compare them unfavorably to weather report. as for instrumental skill, innovation or composition complexity i honestly have no idea how to "judge" their input (assuming i really had to "judge"). maybe miles would have anything to say about that. he knows.
but anyway, to me, zawinul and the guys formed quite a tinny sort of band. and there is oh so much woody quality to the mahavishnu orchestra!

Birds of Fire and the Mahavishnu Orchestra was an epiphany for me at age fourteen, when the LP first came out. Listening to Led Zep, Deep Purple at the time, when I saw McLaughlin and MO play outdoors at Wolman Rink in Central Park (NYC) that summer I knew from then on I was forever spoiled and would never be quite like the rest of my friends.

Things like this don´t make me lost my hope in humanity.

This makes Zeppelin look like they came out of a cracker jack box.
Mclaughlin, Cobham, Hammer, Laird and Goodman... The greatest collection of musicians to ever form a group.

This is possibly the most beautiful thing in existence.
