5.0 classic | Jethro42 | November 26th 10 | These guys are truly both musicians and magicians. John McLaughlin is an out-of-this-world guitarist, drummer Billy Cobham is so intense and powerful that he should keep a fire extinguisher near his kit. This is an essential, classic jazz fusion masterpiece that will take you in a wonderful journey through some highly adventurous landscapes. Sometimes dreamy and clement, but mostly heavy, harsh.. no wait: it's actually a colossal piece of work. My perso favs are the t/t, 'Miles Beyond', 'Sanctuary' and 'Hope'.
It may take more than one listen to fully appreciate Mahavishnu Orchestra, but the experience will ultimately be more than rewarding

4.5 superb | GamamJ | July 9th 20 | Another fabulous record by Mahavishnu. They extend their range a bit here, and the instruments around McLaughlin?s guitar get more attention than before. Their blend of Indian classical, fusion and rock continues to soothe, and there is not much to criticise here.

4.1 excellent | Erwann S. STAFF | April 23rd 20 | Jazz rock fusion ass bullshit, but it ain't no bullshit. It's imo less impacting than The Inner Mounting Flame but shit they know how to frantically play their instruments in unison in an engaging way.
