Of all the many configurations J. McL has played in, this "Heart of Things" line up is one of my all time faves! Some droids complained J. McL didn't solo enough. I think he was somewhat influenced by Weather Report's ensemble playing where the entire band runs through extended arrangements together vs. just solo'ing over chords. And of course, like Miles, he was influenced compositionally as well as the spirit of Duke Ellington. Everyone on this tour is a monster in their own right - Jim Beard - kb, Gary Thomas - sax, Matthew Garrison - bs. (son of Jimmy Garrison, Coltrane's bass player), Mr. DC - Dennis Chambers - perf. and the Maestro, J. McL. It's so great to be able to see these concerts live with great sound. God Bless You Tube!
All the musicians are amazing and solo phenom...but I would like a bit more Solo from the grand master him self I must admit..Thanks for info, fascinating.
Agree, in fact this is probably my favorite JM band since the original Mahavishnu Orchestra line up. Another one I really dig was his short lived 1994 Trio project, The Free Spirits - w/ Dennis Chambers and Joey DeFrancesco. Their live at Blue Note Tokyo is an amazing record.
Tu es une vraie encyclopédie ,je suis aussi un vrai fan de jazz fusion..miles etc.. j'ai découvert dernièrement une bassiste (Mohini Dey) Elle va cartonner.
Dennis the menace on the drum set. Grooves that define a genre, and solos that make you wonder if he's been genetically enhanced lol. Mclaughlin's playing here and his whole life's work is something to really admire.
One of my favourite pieces of all time. When I play it on my drums either with others or all alone I am transportted to a whole new realm. It seems to feed my soul, my intellect and my physical health. Some of this jazz stuff is quite the workout on a kit of drums.
hoLee SHIt! This is outstanding stuff.... I have all these old LP's in crates still! Young people.... LISTEN...... you are seeing the one of the best drummers EVER. They all look like they are having a ball...
To have a band like this with great skilled, disciplined, well trained musicians.... is something only Masters like John Mc Laugling, Chick Corea, Frank Zappa, and few others could afford in the past, and I don't see anyone for the future right now.
once more on youtube: the mastery of dennis chambers! those single hand sixteenths on the ride are ballistic, i love them!! but that's the first time i see him play a three piece kit ;-)
Une de mes préférences d'associations de musiciens avec John McLaughlin ...Fabuleux et je le recommande comme exemplaire et réussi à souhait avec ses silence et discontinuité pleines d"érotisme sonores ...THANK'ssssssss
What a brilliant concert, this is true musicianship. I have seen JMcL with 4th Dimension live @ Leverkusener Jazztage in 2012, and he hasn't lost the slightest bit of his aura...
That's got to be the smallest kit Dennis has played since he was a kid. And it's lovely to see the legendary Jimmy Garrison's son Matthew holding it down with great style.
Gary Thomas - sax, flute Dennis Chambers - drums magnificos, que pena no hizo mas música asi, me hace acordar a Mahavishnu pero mas refinado con to Miles Davis.
Dors anyone know the set up for John's tone in this band? It fits the style like a glove, thick... There's some kind of chorus... Same set up when he played with Dennis and deFrancesco. Love the tone of those records
liebe 3sat Regie: das Instrument was aussieht wie eine große E-Gitarre mit 5 Saiten heißt E-Bass und wird in dem Fall von dem großartigen Matt Garrison gespielt, den man auch namentlich erwähnen sollte. Bei 30min hat er ein Solo, wäre schön wenn man ihn da auch mal länger im Bild hätte und nicht die Begleitakkordhand von McLaughlin. Naja, Jazz, das unbekannte Wesen :-)
When I heard groovemaster Dennis played the late 1980 Mahavishnu reformat it sounded interesting. Never was much Mahavishnu fan in 70s. Jim Beard I probably knew his style an Matt the pedigreed bassist from Herbie's future2future video. This group is slamming! I did like Johnny McLaughlin Electric Guitarist LP 70s so the man is a Master.
Yes I agree. Scofield, while a master, saw him with Adam Nussbaum on drums back in '87, that sound tends to give me listener fatigue. mJohnny Mac just always seems so alive. Remember "Electric Dreams, Electric Sighs". But I agree. Thanks for your insight dude. Quite smart.
mi interes por la musica viene de conocer el trabajo de john Mc....Corea...Al Di...y Jesus Arenales...Juan...tenia 11años. Ahora es todo un maestro profesional...HURRA por Juanin Arenales
Hi everybody! May anyone tell me who is the bassplayer, please? I didnt see it in the begining of the video. Im a brazilian bassist, I think this guy is a very good player and must be, of course, to play with JM, DC & CIA. Thanks a lot!
Every thing has its purpose (prices, transport etc etc...), but when it comes to the top stars and their performances, there should not be place for hip or not to hip stuff. Timeless values are quite obvious.
What is the flute tune at 14.00? Don't recognise it from the albums… has a hint of Miles' Gondwana with Dave Liebman on flute / Reggie Lucas on funky guitar.
Amazing. Maybe an even better band than Johnny's current one which is saying something. Fascinating to see Dennis using such a small kit - and check out his awesome Cobham groove at 32:40

Dennis Chambers ruled the entire universe in the 90s.
Convisis without question the best in that decade.
and still is
ronald bruner jr stole that one this decade
Paul Atreides. um somewhat i will give u that but.. eric moore took some of that too
what you know bout my nephew!!!? Beast!!!
Such a level of abstraction in improvisation... a very very exotic flavor! Kinda like eating colors!
Love that description!
Beautifully put!

Yes, but I prefer with Otmaro on KB (featured on the disc live in Paris)
All the musicians are amazing and solo phenom...but I would like a bit more Solo from the grand master him self I must admit..Thanks for info, fascinating.
Totally agree! The sound and the composition of “T.H.O.T.T.” Album are the Highest Level or JML production

John M. has been one of my principle musical heroes since 1973. The dude just keeps on growing and perfecting his ever innovating approaches - amazing
Same here!
RIP GREAT JIM BEARD ❤
Mr. Thomas is such a great Saxophone players!
he is the beginning of a new era and entirely new approach to the instrument. he has escaped the limitations of the instrument,
I saw this band…..amazing! Cherish the memory!

if i was taken to this concert as a kid i would have learned so much..
John is a father of all, how many musicians played whit him whith feelings that feed your heart...let him go it's free
To have a band like this with great skilled, disciplined, well trained musicians.... is something only Masters like John Mc Laugling, Chick Corea, Frank Zappa, and few others could afford in the past, and I don't see anyone for the future right now.
I love that song! Jim Beard is an unsung hero too - I love his music.
High level harmony, rhythm concept and great melody with dexterity.
Nice concert
once more on youtube: the mastery of dennis chambers!
those single hand sixteenths on the ride are ballistic, i love them!!
but that's the first time i see him play a three piece kit ;-)
I watched the whole concert.
Lots of colors, textures...just a sublime experience.
Jim Beard is truly amazing.
they blew the tops off of the Swabians that day!! I love this performance, one of my favorites!!! Best lineup ever.
Great sound he's getting on the hollow body. you can hear every plucked/picked note!
Garrison...EXTREMELY "UNDERRATED"!
And cheated out of his camera time!
@@ricaard He is not even written in the opening credits!!!
@@vladimirsandtner4438 it was a CRIME!
Que dire de mieux que ... respect Maestro 🎉
That is a Ring Modulator! YEAH!
アルバム「The Heart of Things」は、マクラフリンのアルバムの中で一番好きかもしれない。
I agree....
Fantastic improve from all!!Mc Laughlin is amazing in phrasing and outside playing.Love The Heart Of Things.Great cd!!
Dear J.M.
Your keyboard player is badass

Somewhere around (58:00), John's really in the zone. He's clearly at his peak here.
Supremely fantastic!
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!
Dors anyone know the set up for John's tone in this band? It fits the style like a glove, thick... There's some kind of chorus... Same set up when he played with Dennis and deFrancesco. Love the tone of those records
Thank you.
Jim Beard song! Cool performance!
I want to hear Mclaughlin sing.
his guitar sings for him....
LOL
Good is good .....
thanks .
Totally agree, we are past that, even during the late 90's.
anything with dennis chambers is awesome
@2:30 "Are you the one?" quote/call. Matt Garrison smiles. Musicians.
Beard and McLaughlin quoting Happy Birthday, Gary Thomas quoting All The Things You Are.. and that is just in one song. Who's birthday was it anyway?
Yes indeed!!
Love the music
Awesome!
Matthew Garrison is awesome bass player.
Que banda hay ahí 👍👏🎶🎧🎷🎸🥁
That bebop tune was insane.
Where is that in the concert?
1 million yes....
🔥.!. .👊🏾🎧👊🏾. .!. 🔥
Great Fusion Jazz Right there.
I like John,s solo at 19.20
Bjørn Hjartnes man! He’s burning on that one!
awesomeeeee!!!

C'mon John....get the 80's MAHAVISHNU and THE HEART OF THINGS....LIVE on C.D.
all this stuff hiding in a vault somewhere....
Agree... The 1984 album is virtually impossible to find. Major rights issues with both I think.
gold
Lots of chewing gum was harmed in the making of this video...
Mr DC = Dennis Chambers ?
JM sounding very fluid, reminds me of his Extrapolation days
Hello, have you forgotten the sublime recording named TonyWilliamsLifetime/Emergenc/sy? Dag
That groove that starts around 8:50...priceless!

YES....My freaking lips nwould urt so bad after 3 hour rehearsals..lol...Drummers and gum WORKS...

"Less is more" say the dullards. No, more is more! Less is great when applicable, but give me notes!!!
I wasn't sure that was Dennis Chambers until I noticed he was chewing gum.
