Description
John McLaughlin and the Mahavishnu Orchestra emerged as the most pivotal band in the fusion jazz movement of the 1970s. Following his groundbreaking work on Miles Davis' iconic album In a Silent Way, McLaughlin joined forces with Jan Hammer, Rick Laird, Billy Cobham, and Jerry Goodman to create the Mahavishnu Orchestra, a remarkable blend of jazz, blues, rock, and Indian music. This book features McLaughlin's own "miniature scores" for 28 classic Mahavishnu compositions, including titles such as A Lotus on Irish Streams, Birds of Fire, and Meeting of the Spirits, showcasing the band's innovative musical legacy.
