 (3 Customer Reviews)
Recorded in 1972. Originally released on Columbia (32034). Includes liner notes by Hal Miller. Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin are two of jazz-rock's finest guitarists, virtuosos who temper their fire with deep spirituality. This album ... Full Descriptionis a summit meeting between the two string wizards and their respective bands; Santana's percussionists mix it up with Jan Hammer and Billy Cobham of the Mahavishnu Orchestra. The guitarists created this album as a tribute to their then-guru, spiritual leader Sri Chinmoy. The passion and purity of their belief in Chinmoy's teachings is matched by the technical facility that could only have come from the discipline their faith provided them.
Two Coltrane pieces open up the album. Santana and McLaughlin enter with all guns blazing, breathing electric fire on a raucous version of "A Love Supreme," given a '73-vintage fusion overhaul. Things get acoustic and contemplative on Coltrane's "Naima." Two blazing, all-out shredfests follow, with death-defying fretwork from both of the principals. Things close out on a reflective note with the short, gentle, acoustic-based "meditation." LOVE DEVOTION SURRENDER is a classic of the first and greatest jazz-rock era, recommended to fans of the leaders' aforementioned bands, as well as aficionados of the Tony Williams Lifetime and Miles Davis's BITCHES BREW, both of which featured McLaughlin.
2003 remastered reissue of 1972 release featuring Mahavishnu John McLaughlin. The collaboration is a tribute to the jazz legend John Coltrane and includes 2 previously unreleased bonus tracks 'A Love Supreme' (alternate take 2) & 'Naima' (alternate take 4). Columbia.
Jan Hammer, Mike Shrieve (drums); Armando Peraza (congas).
Personnel: Carlos Santana (guitar); Mahavishnu John McLaughlin (guitar, piano); Larry Young (organ); Doug Rauch (bass); Billy Cobham, Don Alias,
Rolling Stone (8/2/73, p.47) - "...this music is rock; loud and insistent, it depends on monochord drones and simple modes for its structure and on sheer screaming force for much of its effect..."

 Framed
To me, this record is so great that (over a period of three years) I hunted both down men after concerts in Manchester England in the 1990's to sign the front coverof the record so I could get it framed and hang it on my lounge wall. Need I say any more about one of the greatest recordings ever made?

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  This is rock'n roll and jazz in a low -down synthesis
The musicians could make you believe it's great music...but no way. This is just the left over chords and riffs Carlos didn't make with the Santana band. John does his best to make this sound like a jazz album; but Mr. Santana's guitar playing and sound kills it. Anyhow..I give credits to the band and McLaughlin...they made it worth listen to.

Devadip + Mahavishnu = Pure Fusion
This album reflects what happens when two musicians of diverse but complimentary styles focus their energy on a common goal. Strange as it may be, the goal in this case is glorifying guru Sri Chinmoy, the inspiration behind John and Carlos' most authentic, heartfelt and passionate work to date. The music here is full of fire and determination in a veritable "dueling banjos" for fusion guitar. If you have the time and patience to absorb a whole new spectrum of musical genius, sit back, relax and enjoy a hidden treasure in both the Mahavishnu and Santana catalogs.

Domain was founded by Bernie Kolbe (lead vocals, bass), Axel Ritt (guitars), Cliff Jackson (guitars), Volker Sassenberg (keyboards) and Freddy Friedrichs (drums) in 1986. Before Domain Bernd Kolbe (this is his original name) and Jackson played in a band called Red Roosters and formed Fagau's Epitaph with James McGillvray (guitars) in 1970. Some time later the name was shortened to EPITAPH, the band signed with Polydor Records and after adding Klaus Walz (guitars) released the debut album "Stop, Look And Listen" in 1972. The music of EPITAPH was hard/art rock in the vein of Uriah Heep. Through the years Epitaph released six successful albums, changed their line-up several times (in particular, famous German drummer Fritz Randow (later in VICTORY, SINNER and SAXON) played on three albums of the band) and split in 1982.After the split Kolbe and Jackson joined Ritt, Sassenberg and Dietrichs to form a new band KINGDOM. The newcomers caught attention of ELOY singer and producer Frank Bornemann, who helped them to record their first demo tape. The tape found its way to the leadership of Teldec/Frontrow company that signed the band. After several months of hard work in Horus Sound Studio (HALLOWEEN, STEELER, GAMMA RAY, VICTORY) KINGDOM released its first album "Lost In The City" in early 1988. It's hard to describe the scale of success they got with it! "Lost In The City" was a classic hard rock record with amazing keyboard parts and the band was listed to follow the success of Scorpions, which was something unbelievable for a band with only one album out!Everything seemed to be perfect but right at that time German singer Lenny Wolf (ex-Lenny ...
