i was at this concert..sound's here so horrible chambers's sound from the scene was incredible!! we were so high at that concert omg!,.fantastic memories.
i was here!incredible trio,i can remember great energy and sound in this theatre there was this night man! chambers,defrancesco at the top of they shape!paroxysm was when chambers played his polyrythme asymetric 5/4 solo!great souvenir!
Man oh man.... Now THAT is funky!!!! Come on hands up- try not to tap into that groove The drums are snappin`, the organs grinding and young Johnny boy is laughin`all the way across the stage.Lightning fingers calling down the light divine. Thanks for this one Klaurent13
i have alwaws dug this tune. the version from live at the royal festival hall is etherial... but when john is electric, the pocket on this tune is deep! 5/8 never grooved so hard like the intro of this tune. a masterful performance by the masters.
The John Mclaughlin Trio live in I think '87. Trilok on drums. Much slower version. Amazing amazing album. Up there with my favourite music of all time.
At a gig around 25 years ago I was sat around 10 feet from JM - playing a long and incredible solo similar to the one featured here [although on nylon acoustic]. Quite an experience.
DC, JMac and Joey D - Ohhhhhhhhh Dammmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnn!!!!! Everyone bow down!!!! ...Although, I would have loved to hear a jammin' bass player walkin' with Joey D.
@Minor8Flat4 Where I want to go is to be a guitar player in a Barry Manilow/Mahavishnu Orchestra cover band-will the lessons get me there? We will be alternating between the two so, for example, we might start a show off with "Mandy", followed by "Meeting of the Spirits", "I write the songs", "A Lotus on Irish Streams", a Coke commercial, "You Know, You Know", etc...you get the picture. I'm particularly concerned with navigating the tricky part of the Coke changes.
The phrasing for me is very similar in the spirit to what John Coltrane does on Giant Steps or Count Down. There is probably something you don't hear here.
@cho7 Late on the rply here, I realise - hope you're still alive and lovin it - Thanks. 24 sec is about when it goes bananas for me. Funny, but JM's latest is called To The One and I can't find the f*cker in the whole album.
Great playing here by John, Joey, and Dennis. Listen and enjoy. If you don't like it---post your own video and show us how it's done. Or flip over to the Barry Manilow channel. Thanks for posting...John is enjoying it too!
@DayTradersWin Of course I would be interested in day trading etc.! That's why I scour UA-cam for Dennis Chambers and John McLaughlin clips: a profound interest in day trading. Thanks for pointing this out and posting in this, a manifestly relevant forum.
WHy are we splitting hairs over whether this is a jam or an improv'd composition. Listen and enjoy. If your a guitarist new to jazz, start with Charlie Christian, work your way up to Wes Montgomery and George Benson, throw in some Miles DAvis w/ Coltrane then take another listen to John M. Beautiful stuff. Maybe a little too shred happy for me, but I can't think of many (any?) rock guitarists who can do what John is doing here.
Ha ha. Knew you would reply. Anyway, I am sure it probably was created during a jam. (As your beloved WIKI suggests a jam is for). Anyway, safe travels
salut, je l'avais enregistré sur M6 aussi à l'époque, quel claque ce fut. Je l'avais mis en partage sur edonkey après l'avoir mis en divx elle se retrouve sur youtube, c'est marrant. Il me semble que c'est une autre source que la mienne là. La tienne n'a pas de bavure violettes ^^
@Endomorphian2 When you say "He lost his spirituality..." do you mean he actualy stopped practicing spirituality? I thought he was into yoga and meditation (?)
Chromatype, that's probably why JM hired Joey -- and Dennis. Gotta love how relaxed DC looks even when he's churning out incredible rhythms, chewing his gum, just another day at the office . . . LOL!!
Dude. 'Just a jam'. This is a performance. It has tight structure and is rehearsed. There are large sections within it that allow for free expression. It is not a 'jam'. If your critera for a jam is a bit of improv then all of Coltranes albums are 'just jams'. It conforms far more to the improv description than to the jam description. The day I take a WIKI quote as an answer is the day I drop 60 IQ points or become a US citizen.
Because you call it a 'jam' as a negatyive point. Like it is less than a rehearsed composition. This is improvised art, a performance. NOT a jam. Is a free jazz album merely a recording of a 'jam'?
Don't get me wrong, I'm a real JMcL-Fan, but that was one of his weaker phases. Not because of his fellow musicians, it was the master himself. Senseless, ultrafast wishy-washy without feeling and an awful tone. This guitar could have sounded wonderful, but around that time, he ruined its output completely by some strange effectors. Fortunately, this phase is over...
i was at this concert..sound's here so horrible
chambers's sound from the scene was incredible!!

TONE and playing from the heavens. All 3 are killing it!
i was here!incredible trio,i can remember great energy and sound in this theatre there was this night man!
chambers,defrancesco at the top of they shape!paroxysm was when chambers played his polyrythme asymetric 5/4 solo!great souvenir!
Johnny Mac - prob my all time favourite...
I love every version of this track. Spectacular. The RFH version is mindblowing.
Love this track. Love this band. Love this rendition.
I love it ! GOD bless them !
Man oh man.... Now THAT is funky!!!!
Come on hands up- try not to tap into that groove

Fantastic post bop off the wall improvisations...these guys are so tight.
Joey DeFrancesco is a absolute monster I love him
MAGIC!

Muy bueno, So nice,

Been a few months since I last saw these clips ... do they just get better or what !
Yes!!!!!
In my opinion, John had his best electric-guitar- sound with that Johnny Smith/L5 ..
Pur sound,
Jazz6 !!!! la belle époque....ils nous font de la bonne merde maintenant....sic...
speechless..John and Dennis..!! too much talent on one stage!!
Not sure what studio album but there's a fantastic rendition on The Heart of Things Live in Paris.
Dennis Chambers (on drums) RULES!!
@cm0220ster saw original MO in the 70s and recently saw JM with Chick Corea.
he had the 3 hottest young bass/drums/sax. great evening!
I want that guitar!
DC, JMac and Joey D - Ohhhhhhhhh Dammmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnn!!!!! Everyone bow down!!!! ...Although, I would have loved to hear a jammin' bass player walkin' with Joey D.
Smoldering performance!
Deep!

@bichomaldito I agree he is awsome!
@tastefulphrasing his tone is one of the greatest guitar tones in history...
The phrasing for me is very similar in the spirit to what John Coltrane does on Giant Steps or Count Down.
There is probably something you don't hear here.
Does anyone know if John Mclaughlin and Tommy Emmanuel have played or jammed together? Two giants like that would find some commom ground I am sure!
@cho7 Late on the rply here, I realise - hope you're still alive and lovin it - Thanks. 24 sec is about when it goes bananas for me. Funny, but JM's latest is called To The One and I can't find the f*cker in the whole album.

crazy phrasing !
indeed. He's playing the keyboards and the bass line at the same time. =O
this is amazing
ive noticed that john has a particular left hand technique or position that he always uses
¿does anyone know why?
thanks.
oh that album - i thought you meant there was a video from RFH...
and what pray tell constitutes a jam? This is very tightly structured. There is much improv over and around it.
I'd like to hear Sean Rickman play on this track!!
@sxmadrid Been a while but it's counted in 5/4 or some multiple of that i.e. 10/8

McLauglin - raptor.
Mr. Chambers.

Gotta love how relaxed DC looks even when he's churning out incredible rhythms, chewing his gum, just another day at the office . . . LOL!!
How is it even possible to play like that?
I can't make chocolade out of this.. Perhaps they could work out a theme, a motive?
do you have all the songs from this performance?
where is the RFH version please?
Dude.
'Just a jam'.
This is a performance. It has tight structure and is rehearsed. There are large sections within it that allow for free expression.

I wonder what Holdsworth would say. Probably 'wow'. Followed by 'camelspot is a dick'.
nah weather report brahski
thrash!
Well done for attacking me. However, please explain what was wrong with my argument.
love him, but hate his tone.
More definitivly, they know just how this track will start and end to the exact note. That is not a jam, open and shut.
yes!Thanks for this video...

Vomit of notes....! the real master of guitar is " Victor van Kampen "
John plays his ass off, but I cant stand that digital chorus/reverb shit on his guitar
