The third solo LP from John McLaughlin and a landmark recording.
One side is solo guitar, the other is with the first Mahavishnu Orchestra.
The startling thing about this record is that it points the way toward two directions McLaughlin would take in the future -- exploring Indian music and the acoustic guitar -- and this while he was in the thick of the burgeoning electronic jazz-rock movement.
Side Two is a John McLaughlin acoustic guitar tour de force, filled with single-minded intensity on three jazz standards and five originals (including one genuine self-penned classic, "Follow Your Heart").
Side One is devoted to a pair of marvellously intricate fusions of Indian rhythms and drones called "Peace One" and "Peace Two," with jazz flights from flutist/soprano saxophonist Dave Liebman, a simpatico encounter with future Mahavishnu cohorts Billy Cobham on drums and Jerry Goodman on violin, and Airto blending his sounds seamlessly with the Indian tambura and tabla.
Throughout, McLaughlin's acoustic lines faultlessly straddle the line between the subcontinent and jazz, and the ethereal results still hold up beautifully today
