I saw the Mahavishnu in 1984 John was playing Roland guitar and all the audience got knock out! Adventures in Radioland has good pieces but the entire album is not as good as "MAHAVISHNU". John developed this second album of mahavishnu with the fantastic duo MAC-HELLBORG and after that with his insuperable TRIO!

soulless pretentious noise for those fans of fretboard gymnastics. Musically says absolutely nothing.

I saw this tour,...around 1983-1985. John was supporting his new album,...he had this new,...unheard of bass player named jonas hellborg,...and if you ask me,..he might have stollen the show from john. Why do I say this? Well maybe because alot of bass players come and go,...but jonas is still around today,...26 year's later! I saw this tour at "THE STONE" in San Francisco,..when it was still open.

actually, you can go back to The Count's Jam Band with Coryell for a seminal group in fusion.

RTF was around also; Bill Connor could shred with the bestof them.

Wow, great clip. JM's obviously really feelin' it... only guy I've seen who can wear pleated pants and yet be so badass. Bill Evans looks like he just stepped out of the gym. Love it.

Mahavishnu they are the forerunner of fusion, their music is ahead of its time and John is one heck of guitarist in this genre. Thumbs up!!

John's music is still so fresh, so revolutionary, so vibrant, so different, so innovative, so full of love...sheer joy...after such a long time has past. You are by biggest musical inspiration Johm, I love YOU!
