John McLaughlin
The Mahavishnu Orchestra was a jazz-rock fusion group
Jeff Beck
Back in the 70’s, I saw Mahavishnu orchestra about 8 times, including once at Madison Square Garden.
Now I am more into blues/rock than jazz as a genre, but I have to say John could play better than just about anyone else I ever saw or heard.
And I just got done downloading “Dream” off of the live album “Between Nothingness and Eternity” and gave it a listen at (almost!!) full volume the guy is just out and out incredible... I’m still shakin my head!!!
