I just ordered a tab book of John McLaughlin, Mahavishnu Orchestra.
I'm thinkin' maybe I could actually try some of his stuff.
I love the disonance.
Loved the album Birds of Fire ever since it came out.
One of the few albums I can say I've owned in in vinyl, cassette & CD.
Maybe I'm just mental........We'll see.
Anybody familiar with "Birds of Fire?"
I get those songs stuck in my head once in a while....can't get em out.
Is it a lot like Visions of the Emerald Beyond? Have had that in my collection for 30 years, but haven't played it recently.
-=tension & release=-
I'm not too familiar with most of his stuff....just maybe four albums....three real old & one new.
Birds of Fire is where I first heard him.
I recall hearing it when it was new. Haven't in many years.
"A cheerful heart is good medicine."
i thought that album was amazing when i heard it. john mclaughlin is incredible. miles davis named a song after him. good luck. his stuff is definitely not for beginners. i know if i tried to tackle it, i'd give up after about 5 minutes.
also, it's grandeur.
Thanks for the spelling tip Jason.
I'll need quite a little bit of luck.
I thought it may be another way of learning dimished type riffs; one I can relate to.
