"Birds of Fire"-- Mahavishnu Orchestra
I took a nap and dreamed that John McLaughlin had a band called The Living Skulls before Mahavishnu Orchestra

Music That Doesn't Suck #MutualMusic
From the first Mahavishnu Orchestra album.
I doubt there was any band I listened to from 1973 to 76 as much as this one. There wasn't a better group of musicians on the planet.

Last night's double dip fun. Mahavishnu Orchestra and 'Birds of Fire' (1973 CD) and 'Visions of the Emerald Beyond' (1975 CD). Some real sweet spot fusion for me. More still to follow on from these 😎👌

JMc with the Mahavishnu Orchestra, ‘The Inner Mounting Flame’ (1971, CD). One of my earliest forays into jazz and fusion. My teenage brain was completely rewired from this point on 🤯😎 and just couldn’t get enough … magnificent

🗣️ Mahavishnu Orchestra
🎶 You Know You Know
🗓️ November 1971
A very recent discovery for me, but I've been making up for lost time ever since discovering this jazz fusion behemoth of a record.
For me, YKYK is the absolute highlight - CODY era Mogwai were certainly listening.

Trivia: foi depois da turnê com a Mahavishnu Orchestra que o Zappa montou a (melhor) formação do Mothers of Invention, inspirada na Mahavishnu Orchestra (Apostrophe/One Size Fits All/Roxy & Elsewhere)
"As Zappa said of McLaughlin at the time: 'The guy has certainly found out how to operate a guitar as if it were a machine gun.'"
Happy Birthday, John McLaughlin:
Happy Birthday, John McLaughlin:
Happy Birthday, John McLaughlin!
The undisputed guitar god and transcendent figure of my youth turns 84 today

Happy birthday John McLaughlin 🎂

Saw Mahavishnu Orchestra in a venue in ~Harlem maybe in 1983. My buddy parked at a meter & had to keep running out to feed it which still makes me laugh.
