Mahavishnu
John McLaughlin & Devadip Carlos Santana
A Live Supreme
[Mainstream 2CD]
Live at International
Amphitheatre, Chicago, USA, Sept 1, 1973.
The album Love, Devotion
& Surrender was like a bolt from the blue - a rocker with Top 10 albums
to his credit with a critically acclaimed jazz guitarist - doing an album
of John Coltrane covers and "transcendental music". The album
reached gold and sold over 100,000 albums but failed to give Carlos Santana
another Top 10 album. He was also looked at with skepticism for his conversion
to Sri Chinmoy, his new short back and sides haircut and his vegan lifestyle.
But mostly, critics were unimpressed with Love, Devotion & Surrender.
On hindsight, most
have come around to the view that this was a good but maybe not great
album. It reprised what McLaughlin was already doing with his Mahavishnu
Orchestra — lightning fast riffs, endless soloing and numerous epiphanies.
The difference was Santana’s Latin-Cuban touch and melodic playing
that contributed to the rock portion of this jazz-rock fusion. It heralded
his entry into jazz and avante garde music which he would explore for
the next few years. Sri Chinmoy also gave Santana discipline and that
has helped him mature more as a survivor.
Attempts to follow
McLaughlin/ Santana’s brief resulted with an oversupply of jazz-fusion
in the ‘80s that first led to jazz-lite lounge music and then opened
a door into New Age. All rest and relax with no fire and no passion.
Here is a live presentation
from that brief tour in support of Love, Devotion & Surrender. This
is a very good to excellent soundboard recording of a typical show taken
from the Japanese Mainstream label. Scorching.
