Thank you for so much for sharing this. My husband, 7 year daughter and I were so lucky to meet Mike Stern in October 2019 when he played at Birds Basement in Melbourne, before we became one of the most locked down cities in the world. Mike was so friendly, humble and lovely. My daughter has a great photo with him. She's 9 now and absolutely hero worships Simon. She's becoming a pretty amazing little drummer herself and loves jazz fusion. It would be soooo amazing if you all could come to Melbourne, Australia and tour.

@JazzVisionsMusic2 жыл бұрын
This is one of the all time greatest guitar concerts I know of, says a huge Mahavishnu fan. Lee Ritenour is showing here, that he's among the greatest guitar players of all time. Everyone already knew about how good he is from Friendship, Captain's Journey, Feel The Night and so on. But what he's playing here goes beyond. Damn, the man is so virtuosic in literally every style of guitar playing, not "only" in the fusion genre, for which he's best known of. His solos are damn beautiful and sparkle with creativity. Also his guitar sound is from heaven. Never heard a Les Paul sounding better than here. Very impressive. And you can hear so many influences. A very strong one is John McLaughlin. You already could hear his Mahavishnu influences on the title track of the album Captain Fingers. I wish he had also done a collaboration with John McLaughlin. An album and a tour with exclusively written material would have been something. Too sad it never happened. About Mike Stern only one thing. I liked his sound better, when he was with Miles. Honestly much better. His guitar sound is quite thin here and sounds somehow synthetic. His playing of course, is out of this world. And as a drummer I must add, Simon's drum sound here is insane! Not to speak of his playing. Very tasteful and sensitive and not too much Billy Cobham.
