A staggering concert released today by the Vault:

It says a lot when a band is even better live than in the studio . . . what a quartet, playing "adventurous, dangerous" music.

Michael Giles was hypermodern in '69. Nice interview here:

And Greg Lake is yet to be fully appreciated for the bassist he is . . . just-turned 22 at time of this recording. Fripp just 23 . . . seems safe to say kids make the best music.

. . . and these guys are anti-war heroes. Spiro Agnew is Schizoid Man, Mars is the Bringer of War . . . they were blasting the war in Vietnam

For those of you that don't have time to read your emails,
Mahavishnu Orchestra Concert
Palace Theatre (New York, NY)
Mahavishnu Orchestra

presented here for the first time ever is not only the complete unedited performance, but also the entire recording in stereo, unlike the mono recordings sourced from the televised portion. This recording is far superior to any audio that has ever circulated from this performance and is an intriguing listen to the group during their final months together. Although the band had limited time in which to perform, this is yet another stellar example of the band's improvisational creativity and fluid virtuosity.
