That is the most interesting show I've seen in a long time. RTF with Jean- Luc!! Wow. I might have to get me some tix to that!!

yeah the only thing that would make it better is if Al also was playing with them

I saw that show in 1976! At the Beacon. With Al, without Jean-Luc. They played 2/3 electric, 1/3 acoustic. Other details are lost in the mists of antiquity.
Wait, I think the Mahavishnu Orchestra was in the same show. John M. with 3 Indian musicians. The mist clears a little . . . nope . . . fogged up again.

Awesome.
I've seen McLaughlin when he had the One Truth Band. Seen Jean-Luc about 3 times. But never RTF. Can't wait.

The mist clears again briefly - it was 4 Indian musicians, a violinist, a tabla-ist, and 2 lady drone players. Still not sure if they were on the same bill.
OK, this was who I saw -Shakti: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakti_(band)

Personally, I prefer my 1970's jazz to be a little less fusion-y. I had lots o' Chick Corea, Stanley Clarke, and Al DiMeola vinyl but, like the Dead, it loses something now that I've quit smoking dope.
These days, I'd rather listen to jazz-funk and acid jazz.

Acid jazz is British bands like Jamiroquai and The Brand New Heavies. You get influences from funk, hip hop, disco... I can dump you a bunch of MP3s this fall.
I got turned on to it in the mid-80's. It was the style of a lot of the bands playing at the Boston jazz clubs like the Regattabar back then.
