I am sitting here with my boyfriend's sister and we were looking for something else and came upon this by accident.. I wish I had these kinds of accidents more often. You really made our evening sir!!
I have been playing for a number of years and reached quite a level of competence,but this is bewildering !. What state of mind or plane was John Mclaughlin in (and still is) to focus and concentrate to compose such music?.Never mind learn. Well done Sirs !.Damn right mystical.
holy simple communication finally.. great teacher
jeff beck says mclaughlin is the best guitarist alive, who can argue with that.
Yes some of the greatest music ever recorded.
Thanks, it is beautiful to see what he is doing.
..my favorite too, thanks!
Amazing tune
.. Marvellous stuff,.. !..
This piece oft music is so beautiful ... Yeah in which state oft mind were these guys
Excellent tutorial marred only by the distorted sound. I'm hoping one of these days you re-do it much cleaner. But thank you!
What am/was I thinkin'? Of course he uses that abrupt stopping in between chord changes. He's got the London Symphony doing it too. Blatantly obvious between the constant moving changes on the Vision/Sword tune. It kinda adds a cushioning effect to it.
Awesome stuff, wouldn't mind Dance of maya :D
I notice he has this style of abruptly stopping the string like on the high F of the fist string, first chord, when going through that sequence, before transition to the next chord. I first noticed that off the first album I ever bought, Apocalypse with London Symphony and Jean-Luc Ponty. Can't remember what song/s. Just noticed that McLaughlin thing right off the bat.
I think the song " Vision is a Naked Sword" is the song you're referring to off of Apocalypse. There is a similar short section of the song that uses something like this to transition to a different section of the composition.
@@jimdep6542 Wrong! I'm perfectly aware of the George Martin and London Symphony collaboration. Again, the name of the song, which has an almost identical motif, as what you are doing here, is called "The Sunlit Path", from the Trilogy section. And it indeed has an almost identical transition of which I speak. The naked sword tune sounds absolutely NOTHING like whatever you're doing here. That should be blatantly obvious to anyone.. I just simply had to go back and remember.
@@stratoleft just trying to help
@@jimdep6542 No. I'm the one who just helped you. Go listen to both tunes. Listen to the breaks on both tunes. If I hadn't have brought this up, you, and the likes of you, would have NEVER thought of the identical facets of both of these songs.
@@stratoleft " me and the likes of me" ? Please go be condescending to someone else. Have a nice evening.
You do realize John's 12-string 20/8 figure may be played simply as an E Dorian straight-eight open-chord melody in 10/4 time using only the first, second, fifth and sixth strings?

The only tone not in strict Dorian context is the sixth-string 4th-fret G# maj 3rd played as a passing tone to the min 3rd G - wa -
might wanna ease into decaf bro...sounds like you may need new strings too...saw the Emerald tour in '75 playing this tune...what a band...couldn't believe they opened for the headliner Jeff Beck...bet they had some jams backstage. The audience came for Jeff and they weren't picking up what Mahavishnu was puttin' down sadly...me and my friends dug it though! :)
