I saw Mahavishnu Orchestra, Santana, and Weather Report on 4th of july in Cleveland way back when! What a show! :D
You know you're one of the best ever when the legendary Miles Davis writes and names a song after you, John McLaughlin is one of the greatest guitar players on the planet
Да
Jeff Beck said McLaughlin was the best living guitar player
Great seeing and hearing John playing that beautiful sunburst Les Paul.
Setlist:
1. It's Up To You
2. The Juice's Loose
3. Nostalgia
4. The Wall Will Fall
5. Jozy
6. The Wait
7. Bass Solo
8. The Dance Of Maya
9. Pacific Express
I think
They might be the greatest band I've ever seen!!,Jonas hellborg just rocks still can't believe how he plays that solo
John McLaughlin remains one of the most enigmatic, mysterious and visionary of guitarists IMO.
Along with Robert Fripp.
And his old mate, Zappa.
And Allan Holdsworth...
At 55 yrs old, My first time hearing McLaughlin! I now see why many refer to his excellency!
@@NickNicometi I checked him out some years ago after Jeff Beck stated that he regarded Mclaughlin as being " still the best in the business". The early Mahavishnu Orchestra albums remain unique, radical and enthralling .
+I'm 66 and I'd never heard of him until Jeff Beck died. When he wrote his condolences, I read them and searched him. Glad I did.
That's wild. Did you miss 60s prog rock?
Mr. John McLaughlin ... One of the best guitarist of all time ...
The only one! :D
Ive had a shabby tape of this for decades . To see the show in good quality sound is incredible . THANK YOU !
Absolutely stunning. John’s guitar tone here is fantastic. He plays that Les Paul like a boss. The Big Boss.
I don't know if this makes me want to practice guitar more, or just give up. Damn, this is good!
Man, I've been playing for 20 years, I've been a fan of his music for about 18 of them, and I still feel this every time I listen to him (or DiMeola).
I wish they would release the John and Jimi collaboration and the Johnny Winter collaborations too! Wow man!
@jazzynet1 There is a loose jam with Jimi. The record is called Nine to the Universe.
I love the quoting of "A Love Supreme" in the finale! Great concert from a great band. JMcL's playing was amazing on that Les Paul.
Falling in love with Hellborg's playing, got to know him from his albuns with Shawn Lane then found out a live where he plays with Cobham and Mclaugling now I found out this!
Lane 🍾🎉🥳😱😱😱😱😱
Brilliant man. John’s incredible technique is like watching a rocket blasting off. Thunder fingers.

One of my favorite lineups and MO shows.... incredible playing and excellent 80's fusion tunes! I loved McLaughlin's writing in this period. It's all subjective, but I really love the 80's synthy MO tunes.. Jim Beard or Mitch Forman.. Bill Evans, Danny Gottlieb and the incredible Jonas Hellborg!
Gary Husband revealed in a recent interview that when you see John pull his hand off the fretboard it’s because he doesn’t want to fall into muscle memory or repeat a phrase he’s played before. It’s to keep his improvisations pure…
I'm so grateful for that explanation. I've been trying to figure it out for far too long. Thank you so much!
Questa formazione così composta, ho avuto la fortuna di vederla e ascoltarla dal vivo proprio nel 1986 al Pompei Jazz Festival. Ancora oggi mi emoziona ascoltarli di nuovo. A quel tempo mi etusiasmarono molto il bassista Jonas Hellborg e il tastierista Jimi Beard.
Thank you for this, i will at this one for days, seeing forms of music that are dying with the artists. as far as can see this will be over with the artists that will taking there music with them.Who put this up deseveres a award.thank you.
I honestly cantvdecide if i limevthe earky 70s john, the 80s john,90s john or the 21st centuray john. He continues to excite and amaze. What a bandvthis is. Everyone is at a rare and truly exceptional level of playing.
Proofread
Wish I could have been there ! Thanks do much for the many years of inspiration John . Will miss seeing you in concert with the great musician who have had the privilege and honor of sharing the stage with you in any and all of your incredible performances ! Thanks again .
So happy I saw John in 75 what a legend. And I saw him with Al and Paco 81? SF
It's a shame they haven't released this live record officially. It's amazing.

This is another superb collection of players in this edition of the group, with a really precise and clean sound that still has a great feel and flow. Thanks for uploading this.
I like this eighties lineup, quite smooth tone, The Wait takes me back to Miami in 1986.
Love this M.O. sound!!!
Jonas Hellborg and Bill Evans made my day.
wish the guitar was louder. even tho i'm not a fan of the 80's sound, I find myself drooling when John plays those lighting speed solos on that beautiful Les Paul
"JAZZ!MUSIC! SUPREMOS" THE! (JAZZ!MAN)! *MIKE SPENCE!
Saw them in 73' when "Visions of the Emerald Beyond" had just come out, John came out to open the set with a vintage sunburst Les Paul Standard on "Eternitys Breath part 1 & 2" then switched to his Bogue double neck.
Yeah. Awful mix.
@@mallorga1965 Too true, and for me, dropouts in the sound; not sure if it's my setup or the video, but I suspect the latter as no other videos have so far, given me the same issue.
@@Gregorypeckory I'm quite sure the problem is in the source. Listening to it again I suspect of phase and polarity problems. Than thin sound. Maybe it can be restored with some new tools.
incredible clarity...thanks for posting !
I was there, made the trip up with Heinz Lunke! Thank you for confirming after 32 years that this was the best bass solo I ever heard!
keep on showing more concerts...absolutely amazing!!!!

Solid lineup
Every band member is world class,
and John Mac is "other worldly" , Coltrane in an Out of Body Experience, & John Mac channeling the Music Coltrane is experiencing in the other world, on his guitar.
I was so majorly influenced by John McLaughlin and Carlos Santana in the early 70s especially when they got together and played live or on albums
The Wait is the most intense I've ever seen Mcglaughin play.

Thanx for uploading. I was at the festival at the mentioned date, for some mysterious and probably utterly silly reason I did not attend this JM concert.
Hans van Rongen same here
Whole band is ace and John is on fire here, amazing stuff.
John again achieved a very tight band sound, greater than the sum of its brilliant individuals.
Thanks so much for sharing, I was in the front row. :)

Despite I love the original lineup from the 70's, this one is quite good, very different indeed according to the 80´s, charming tunes and new wave, The Wait is an amazing tune, plus Jonas Hellborg takes a big lead with John.
Excellent!!!
Thoroughly enjoyed this concert !!! McGlaughlin was at his finest in the '80s. And Bill Evans was a big part of that. Hard to believe this was 32 years ago! NOSTALGIA so moving. Yet I prefer the recording with the synthesized guitar (though he plays a splendid acoustic),sans the improvisation. On the other hand, The Wall will Fall was great even with the improv. Josey just delightful. The Wait blew me away! Wow! More intense than the recording, if that's possible. Apparently so. Great show!
"WORLD! OF! JAZZ" THE! (JAZZ!MAN)! *MIKE! SPENCE!
How tastes differ! I didn't like the 80's production aesthetic that shaped this material at all, or the commercialism inherent in the tunes, i didnt dig it then, or hearing it now, (but then I disliked Miles' stuff made during the same era). Give me anything John did before, and after, this period and i'm happy. "Extrapolation", the "Lifetime" L.P's, "Bitches Brew",Carla Bley's "Escalator over the hill","Birds of Fire", "Apocalypse", the "Live" album, "Visions of the Emerald beyond", even "Inner Worlds",all the "Shakti" and "One Truth Band", the "Trio" stuff with Gurtu, the "4rth Dimension", anything but this! Yuppie Mahavishnu!
@@maxinemckenzie5765
Ha! If you're still there, I agree wholeheartedly.
super quality!!!
Thanks for sharing! I saw Mahavishnu at Newport in '85 and it was awesome ... we were right in the front, and as a (hack) bassist I was already in awe of Jonas Hellborg and he was absolutely on fire that day! And while I love Danny Gottlieb, he is not the powerhouse of Cobham (who played on the Mahavishnu album). And it is funny looking at Jim Beard's setup - a DX7 (of course) but also an Ensoniq Mirage - which was essentially a budget 8-bit sampler even in '86, which is around when I bought it myself.
I went to see a performance at a local music school a year ago and the keyboard player (I'm guessing faculty, lol) had a DX7 and was using the sounds! They do have some really interesting sounds: eerily clean, but most people know the Whitney Huston piano. If you're into the history of keys check out Junkie XLs channel he has tons of stuff from the Yamaha CS up to eurorack stuff
Пацаны, вы красавцы!!! Эта музыка и люди которые ее делают ВЕЧНЫ! В натуре.
Saw this lineup when they played Convocation Hall in Toronto in 86 0r 87. JM was running a synclavier system.
Jag såg Mahavishnu Orchestra i Stockholm. Tror det var -75? Magiskt!!! Och Gröna Lund var välfylld den kvällen. Förband/huvudakt var Wishbone Ash. My God ,två favvsosar samma kväll.
Hellborg was the bomb back then...Great band.

Excellent 👍🔥👍
I was there!
This is better than any other "Orchestra" McLaughlin previously formed. I do remember when the album came out, after the critics did not give the most stellar reviews to the previous "acoustic in an electric band" albums. I was somewhat amazed that the reception to this album was rather positive. I, however, have largely not known it's content. I've only just sampled this from time to time. Now, going through this in its entirety, I find this to be rather exceptional! This is not typical contemporary jazz, which is what McLaughlin is understood to be going after. This is that and more!
Superb !
Miles wrote the song: "John McLaughlin" ..........there is no higher honor
I've often wondered if Miles was responsible for that title, though, since Teo Macero was the one who titled a lot of Miles' tunes, similar to the way Norman Granz did the titles for almost all of the tunes Charlie Parker recorded under his production.
@@bholaoates1542 Well, in Miles’ autobiography he said so.
that bass looks HEAVY
Awesome.
I know it’s not my business but I loved johns piercing mahavishnu tones. I try not to be closed minded but did anyone not regret their synth phase? So much responsiveness-hot dynamics
I was lucky enough to see him on the San Fransico tour with Paco and Al.
Jonas Hellborg , gran bajista gran músico en esta nueva etapa de mahavishnu orchestra .😊
best tone i ever heard from him les paul
No very ugly tone
If John calls it The Mahavishnu Orchestra, then it's The Mahavishnu Orchestra. No disrespect to Billy Cobham, Jan Hammer, JL Ponty and others. The albums with the mk I and II lineups were awesome.

which album did Jean Luc Ponty played with Mahavishunu?
thickfreakness ...apocalypse 74...visions of the emerald beyond 75...and for me..j.l.ponty’s best album is..enigmatic ocean
@@cosmicman621 for me mahavishunu best album is visions of the esmerald
Ellos son grandes exponentes de este genero musical y yo sólo escucho con placer . Toda mi admiración para los competentes artistas con john mclaughlin como director .
A bit Zappaish around the 10-14 minute mark - sax and guitar with melody. John is eternal.
Muchas felicidades a los músicos Mahavishnu en su aplicada muy acertada encomienda musical .
MAESTRO john mclaughlin
J'y étais... j'ai vendu ma guitare et me suis dirigé vers la peinture.ils sont trop fort..
I've often pondered the ago old question who is the 'best' guitarist of all time. I think I can safely say now that it has to be John McLaughlin. By a mile.
No noncence Jimi Hendrix Django Reinhardt Ritchie Blackmore Peter green Jimmy Page Jeff Beck Roy Buchanan Allan holdsworth buckethead yngwie malmsteen Shawn Lane are All much Better
@@ssurjohannesen9653 Beck's on record as saying that McLaughlin's the best guitarist ever, Shane Lane can be found on youtube saying he's the ultimate master of flat picking and Jimmy Page reckons that JML was, in the mid sixties, already "by far the best guitarist in England [while he worked in a record shop and gave lessons to Page]." Blackmore's mentor, Big Jim Sullivan, who Ritchie himself considers a better guitarist than Ritchie, reckons that, while the main British session guitarists in England in the 60s (ie him, Page, Vic Flick and John) were all world class, McLaughlin was, and is, in a different league to the others. Page and Beck would piss themselves laughing if you told them they were much better than McLaughlin.
øssur johannese.If John had claimed all this bullshit, I wouldn't believe it either.You need to see an ear specialist doctor urgently.
I remember Chick Corea (and Jeff Beck) calls John McLaughlin the best guitarist, maybe they are musically advanced and close enough to recognize that. In any case, John is and will always be one of the greatest guitarists in the history.
Segovia said nice things as well. Just saying.
John killing it
Nothing bad but I think McLaughlin at this point was following the Miles visual and musical funk concepts here with the bright color clothing and being 80's hip.
👏😎 muito bom
Ho Hum...just another great John McLaughlin band. Thanks so much. This is a serious upgrade to my crappy version.

The Master plays his heart out at this concert! And I hear some Santana influence too, here and there. Not a newsflash, exactly.
'' SANTANA WHO ??
Lol. Santana........nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
34:43 the most precise definition of a guitar chorus
strange audio cuts but great set! What a heater
Saw them in Rochester N.Y. IN 1982.
I saw this line up in 1990 where I was able to hang out with them backstage and introduced John to my then heavily pregnant girl friend with our son who is named „John“ which
….and I thought I had entered paradise when John did his acoustic spot…….
John McLaughlin is untouchable when he plays acoustic guitar. It sounds strange to say that the passion, grace and fire displayed on his acoustic playing surpassed his early Mahavishnu years, the difference is just the guitar tone. I remember John said he did not need a Marshall amp (i.e. sheer volume and distortion) anymore to express the fire, all he needed were pure musical notes.
Cool to hear them do some of Bill Evan's songs ......the sax player, not the piano player of the same name.
I also Jon Luc Ponte in concert in Cleveland. I think Angle Bofill was the 2nd show!
Jim Beard sounds especially good.
27:00 awesome soloooo
Gold from old, but what is old?? The music sounds very modern.
