An interesting review that makes me want to see the footage of the '84 show, but really makes me yearn for video of the original lineup too. Mahavishnu Orchestra's live performances were catalysts in my musical life and I'm sure I'm not alone. The power of rock with the sophistication of jazz, this outfit proved to me and a generation of guitarists that you could have your polyrhythmic cake and eat it too.
