World class fusion. At 81 McLaughlin hasn't lost any ability at all! And the Indian musicians are all brilliant.

His ability to age well is almost as astounding as his insane playing skills, as strong as ever!

I have fond memories of seeing Shakti at the very beginning when they played in Goa 50 years ago. Oh where did all the time go, they were great then and even better now. Zakir actually made the tabla talk that night and I mean literally.

How wonderful, I'm happy for you. Time is an illusion in the eternal now-present. Form must always change and flow to exist. But consciousness is always here! 🕉 It's all a miraculous blessing... 🙏 ✨️ Shakti! 🎉 Shiva! 🕉

I saw their show at NJPAC last Sunday. Now I understand why he's a legend. And he was one of five legends onstage.

Saw them Friday. Waited 50 years to see this presentation. I think the trio with Trilok and Kent K. was closest to this, but not of this brilliance and beauty. Deeply breathtaking. Along with the Mahavishnu commemoration of a few years ago, J.M. has graced the world yet again.

Very nice performance but missing L.N. Shankar on violin... I saw him performing beginning of this year in Varanasi (India) and it was amazing 🥰 yeah, sad he's not joining John & Zakir to remember Shakti, I saw them too in 1977... time is flying... time is illusion in the infinite present...

Oh, how I love this - apart from all virtuosity, they make the meaning of playing obvious. The joy of playing, there is sheer joy in their eyes.

It's a prayer to your teacher/ guru before starting anything. Seeking his blessings to do justice to his teachings in a performance.

@kaushalrabadia1827 4 ай бұрын

It's called Guru Mantra. I doubt if it's available online with the same melody and all the improvisations except other Shakti live performances. In case you want the song after the mantra, it's Giriraj Sudha. Happy listening.

@@bradgillian5269 ...of course it's my opinion. There is no objectively 'better' in art. Why would telling you who my music teachers are contribute to the conversation? I doubt you've heard of them.
