Their Masterpiece
Yep, I was lucky enough to see them live, too. As it unfortunately turned out this was their home run, five star pinnacle.

Awesome display of musical brilliance
This CD is definitely amazing. I'm not into Jazz too much, but this CD doesn't require you to be a fan of Jazz to put you in complete awe.

Electric and Electrifying
The first two discs by the Mahavishnu Orchestra remain fresh and amazing, vital and energetic, after 30 years. Soon thereafter the Orchestra collapsed as egos got too big, but here plays an amazing band at its peak.

37 Years Later..........
I was fortunate enough to see this band several times. Nothing was ever like it before and I have not seen anything like it since.

The Greatest Band In The World!
I had the good fortune to experience The Mahavishnu Orchestra at Colorado University in Boulder, some 33 years ago. It remains, to this day, the most sublime musical experience of my life.
