Very good indeed IMO, fantastic in fact; he is 77 now and his band the 4th Dimension is easily his best line-up since the 1st Mahavishnu Orchestra.
Gary Husband - keyboards/drums, Etienne M'Bappe - bass, and the f**kin' amazing Ranjit Barot on drums.
A wonderful concert. Went with one of my old school friends who I've known since 1970 and who like me is 65 this year. This was our treat.
I have been going to see John Mclaughlin since about 1972, and to see him again now in 2019 was immensely satisfying.
Total cost of evening including a single pint (Camden brewery, very good but £5.50) = £74. Ticket £41 (that's cheap) and return train fare a little over £27.
Best wishes!
I’ve been a fan for a long time too, since the Mahavishnu Mk 1 days, although sadly I never got to see the first band play live. Seen him lots of time over the years since though in various incarnations. I know what you mean about not being so frantic now... I was saying to Hootsmon in a pm (he’s a massive fan too) that JM seemed really relaxed and enjoying himself, none of the intense staring into his band mates eyes.
I thought Gary Husband was incredible last night , although they’re all superb, how can you play like Jan Hammer AND Billy Cobham? The bastard!!!
