  • John McLaughlin has taken jazz fusion into weird and wonderful places. And the British guitarist is returning to his 1970s roots, by recording a new Shakti album. That's the legendary band he lead alongside Indian violin, percussion and Ghuh-tuhm players. But the ever prolific musician shows no sign of slowing down despite being 80 years old.

      @@RedRose4711 Me too! I was saying to myself 'I love this guy' about 3 minutes into the interview. It blew my mind to see those 4 words start the first comment I saw.

    Dear Mr. McLaughlin : I was Blessed to your music in the 1970's , and am possibly your biggest fan. Your music changed the course of my life, and allowed me, after 40 years of devoted practice, to culture and explore the music within myself (it's on CZcams). You helped to find a reason and definition for my life. With you , I had someone I could look up to , and with your wonderful playing , I had the inspiration to devote my life to the guitar, and all music. May God Bless and keep you (my fellow Englishman). Simon Chowins

    Many years ago, I was introduced to this wonderful music and I was at a monastery in California. One of the visiting monks was Br. David Stendhal-Rast has gone on to share his thoughts about 'gratitude' and there is, unfortunately so little gratitude in our world. So much negativity. This was a beautiful interview, thank you.

    I’m lucky to have met John in Northern California after his 4th dimension show. The most gentle soul I’ve had a pleasure to meet. John autographed the back plate of my guitar. That guitar sounds amazing with his spirit having touched it.

    Wow this interview is a gem. The interviewer asked well tempered questions and has a huge part of making that interview so special. My first ever record of John McLaughlin was the legendary "Friday Night in San Francisco". Three GOATs united and i could from the first ever beginning of this fandom feel the spirit of this interview. His words filled my heart with joy and confidence.

    I can think of quite a few better guitarists than McLaughglin- I think he's a boring musician- he could do better with his talent and ability. 'Adventures in Radio Land' is an example of his more interesting work.
