| | Heroes - John McLaughlin |
 | | McLaughlin is the featured musician on this, Davis' most guitar-heavy album. | | | Mclaughlin and his band of Indian musicians settle in in front of a large crowd at a California university, they thank the crowd for their warm welcome, and then they tear into three songs as if their lives depended on it. | | | Although McLaughlin had experimented with acoustic guitar before and releases acoustic albums, this is the one that marked McLaughlin's transition to acoustic guitar pretty much full-time. |

| | Elephant Talk: Interviews - John McLaughlin by Robert Fripp in Musician |
| | McLaughlin: Happily, my mother was an amateur musician; she was a violinist and there was always music going on in the house. | | | McLaughlin: Tony's a difficult person to know...but I have such enormous respect for him as a musician, as an artist...what he does with the drums. | | | Both before and after Mahavishnu, McLaughlin quietly established his jazz credentials as a band leader in a more subdued but more personally expressive medium with such brilliant albums as _Extrapolation_, _My Goals Beyond_(recently rereleased), the underrated _Johnny McLaughlin-Electric Guitarist_, his collaboration-meditation with Carlos Santana _Love, Devotion, and Surrender_ and his latest _Belo Horizonte_. |

| | Guest Appearances: John McLaughlin as a Sideman |
| | John McLaughlin has played in jazz bands since the 1950s, and had appeared on numerous projects as an unnamed studio guitarist throughout the '60s. | | | However, it was not until his historic contributions to several seminal Miles Davis albums, brought about by the generous act of bassist Dave Holland's introduction to Miles, that John McLaughlin came to widespread attention. | | | Both cuts showcase John on acoustic guitar and on “Survival Of The Fittest” it is at its fluttering best. |

| | Mahavishnu John McLaughlin |
| | I have been collecting recordings of John's live performances both on audio and video media for many years now, as well as those of other great fusion musicians. | | | Whether or not John continues on this musical merry-go-round remains to be seen, but for now he is extremely happy to being playing with his brother musician Zakir again and one senses that he has truly found the perfect marriage of music and spirit for which he has constantly striven. | | | It was the goal beyond mere musical excellence that was to profoundly single out John from the profusion of guitar giants in the next decade and imbue his music with a spiritual message that went far beyond the commercial aspirations of his fellow axe wielders. |

| | John McLaughlin was a member of the Graham Bond Organization in the early days for a few months, and some live material that he recorded with the group was eventually issued after most of their members had achieved stardom in other contexts. | | | The band performed imaginative covers and fairly strong original material, and Bond was also perhaps the very first rock musician to record with the Mellotron synthesizer. | | | Bond attempted to carry on with the Organization for a while with Heckstall-Smith and drummer Jon Hiseman, both of whom went on to John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and Colosseum. |

| | A working professional from the age of 12, when he began performing concerts of North Indian classical music in his native country, Zakir is perhaps best known for his ongoing collaborations with guitar great John McLaughlin in the '70s group Shakti and its more recent incarnation, Remember Shakti. | | | Zakir Hussain: The whole idea of doing Shakti happened in California in 1973 when John came over there to meet me. I was living in the Bay Area at the time and we met in my little cottage that I was staying in. | | | He wanted to meet this great Indian musician Ali Akbar Khan, who I was playing with at the time and also teaching at his music college. |

| | Indian musical bliss / Hussain, Morris, Ma collaborate on 'Kolam' |
| | Hussain, the 51-year-old San Anselmo resident who has collaborated with George Harrison, the Grateful Dead's Mickey Hart and John McLaughlin, among many others, has also composed for filmmakers Bernardo Bertolucci and Ismail Merchant, the San Francisco Jazz Festival and the Summer Olympics. | | | Because Hussain's medium, Indian classical music, is rooted in improvisation, the cellist is being asked to do something he rarely, if ever, does: improvise. | | | And the instrumentation is unique -- Hussain on Indian percussion, the classical virtuoso Ma on cello and two jazz- oriented players, Hussain's co-composer (and Morris Dance Group musical director) Ethan Iverson on piano and Ben Street on upright bass. |
