mjzee Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 The version of "Dream" on "Between Nothingness and Eternity," and specifically the duet section of McLaughlin and Cobham, is one of the most incendiary things I've ever heard. I was fortunate to be at that concert, and was just listening to a cassette recording I made from the audience, and it's still, after all these years and listenings, just jaw-dropping.

mjzee Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 On a different subject, this is pretty amazing, more for Jimi than for John. Hard to believe that's really Buddy Miles.

jazzbo Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Between Nothingness and Eternity is my very favorite Mahavishnu Orchestra material. I may find myself getting this eventually just for the remaster and the bonus disc. I wish they'd just release that separately. . . .

BFrank Posted November 23, 2011 Report Share Posted November 23, 2011 Mahavishnu Orchestra - Meeting Of The Spirits/You Know You Know Nice video! So much 'low key' fire under "You Know You Know". I got to see them in 72 and 73 - needless to say, VERY intense. Also fortunate to have seen the McLaughlin/Santana tour with Larry Young in Sept '73.

PHILLYQ Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 The live album was recorded over two nights at Central Park in 1973 and I was at one of those nights. I was 17 and it was a mind-altering experience, even though I had seen them the year before there. Mahavishnu led me to Miles, then to everybody else. I wish I had been there. I never saw the band, though I'd seen Jerry Goodman with The Flock at the tail end of the Fillmore East. Hey Philly, we're the same age and both Brooklynites. I knew I liked you for some reason or other. And you went to high school at Midwood? That's about 7-8 blocks from my boyhood home! I preordered the box only because it has the extra disc with more Central Park stuff. If it has the Mar Y Sol cut that's even better. Philly Q - is the box only available from PopEater? Is this newly remastered? As far as I know it's only available from popmarket. According to something I saw(maybe on Hoffman), the live disc is remastered IIRC.

jazzbo Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Yes, on the Hoffman board it was noted that from a Mahavishnu Project webpage the news is that Between Nothingness and Eternity and the new live disc (at least) are remixed and remastered.

mjzee Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Was listening today to "Meeting of the Spirits," the leadoff track on The Inner Mounting Flame. That sure sounds to me like Larry Young playing with them, but there's no mention of him in the credits. Anyone else hear this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really thought of that! But I'm pretty sure the answer is no, LY did not play on that track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just by coincidence, I listened to McLaughlin's "Devotion" LP (Douglas) a few weeks ago, and Young's organ there sounds very similar to the one on Meeting of the Spirits.
