Artist Biography by Scott Yanow
One of the premiere fusion groups, the Mahavishnu Orchestra were considered by most observers during their prime to be a rock band, but their sophisticated improvisations actually put their high-powered music between rock and jazz. Founder and leader John McLaughlin had recently played with Miles Davis and Tony Williams' Lifetime. The original lineup of the group was McLaughlin on electric guitar, violinist Jerry Goodman, keyboardist Jan Hammer, electric bassist Rick Laird, and drummer Billy Cobham. They recorded three intense albums for Columbia during 1971-1973 and then the personnel changed completely for the second version of the group. In 1974, the band consisted of violinist Jean-Luc Ponty, Gayle Moran on keyboards and vocals, electric bassist Ralphe Armstrong, and drummer Narada Michael Walden; by 1975 Stu Goldberg had replaced Moran and Ponty had left. John McLaughlin's dual interests in Eastern religion and playing acoustic guitar resulted in the band breaking up in 1975. Surprisingly, an attempt to revive the Mahavishnu Orchestra in 1984 (using Cobham, saxophonist Bill Evans, keyboardist Mitchell Forman, electric bassist Jonas Hellborg, and percussionist Danny Gottlieb) was unsuccessful; one Warner Bros. album resulted. However, when one thinks of the Mahavishnu Orchestra, it is of the original lineup, which was very influential throughout the 1970s.

This band was just out of this galaxy. Everyone here shines. It's just incredible to see Billy, Jan, John, Rick and Jerry so far out here. Every live show I see from these 2 years 1972-1973 is just totally unique and mind blowing. And I'm listening to them for over 32 years.

For those that are not drummers, what you are watching here is a demonstration of one of the greatest modern drummers to have ever lived (and he still plays of course). In some ways, no one has ever come close to what this man can do on a drum set., before or since. His playing is supernatural.

Very perceptive review. This is this greatest fusion band of all time which was not helmed by Miles Davis. [Early Return to Forever is very close.] And although it was John McLauglhin's conception all the way, the most incredible playing is indeed by Billy Cobham.

I was a really good drummer when I saw M.O. at the Whiskey A Go Go. I was 19 years old and I was practicing 3 to 5 hours a day. I had an edge over a lot of guys because I could play Jazz. Back in the day not as many drummers did. Billy Cobham blew me away. He wasn't a Rock, Jazz, Latin, Classical, New Orleans Second Line or Tribal drummer. He was not of this earth. For a half a year I practiced 6-7 hours a day. And then at a certain point I realized I would have to forgo sleep to get anywhere this guys solar system. He was that great. Thanks for the share.

The live stuff from the 70s is magical, it's so raw and energised, but there's nothing pretentious about it, it's just a love of music and wanting to do something expressive and new that blends jazz with the vibe of rock. It's fascinating to watch or listen to.

The synchronicity between the three melodocists and the incredible backing of the rhythm section, here they are at the height og their powers. When I saw them, August 73, what ended up being between nothingness & eternity, they were starting to unravel. You couldn’t tell at the concert but years later to look back at performances like this and compare it to the Central Park show, like I said, they were at the height of their powers in Munich in 72

That is some otherworldly virtuosic playing going on there. It sounds so spontaneous and a lot of time it is and then Jan, Jerry and John lock down on a riff and you see the amount of control and mind blowing musical knowledge and understanding that is behind it all. I used to listen to these guys back in the day. Listening to them again after all that time is sort of a mind explosion.

Saw them many times in the NY metro area when I was in college. The best was at Woolsey Hall, Yale, 1973 . . . it was oversold and they let us sit in the isles. We got up VERY close to the stage and it was the greatest concert experience of my life. They did three encores and JM comes back out, very apologetic, to tell us Billy can't play anymore, he's totally cramped up! Billy was a great football player, and he was ambidextrous which probably helped his drumming. We can debate styles, but for sheer power and speed, nobody comes close to Billy Cobham.

Billy showed up for a drum clinic a few years back at the Bath House Cultural Center here in Dallas and I stumbled in to see who was making so much noise - since it was free -and when I saw who was playing I about pee'd my pants because I had been following all of them since back in 72. He didn't break any sticks in the clinic but he did break the drumset after about 45 minutes - much to the chagrin of the dudes throwing the gig. Billy played on anyway. That guy has alot of class.

I remember seeing them in the beginning at the Cafe au go go, in the village. Years before at the same place I saw the 1st gigs of Cream and Hendrix. Well when I saw Mahavisnu I was already playing the drumzz about 12 years and I thought I knew what i was doing. Tell you what I almost gave up the instrument, i was so totally ashamed at what little I knew,Billy Cobham rearranged my thought process, much in the same way, Buddy Rich did, and Ginger Baker did. The whole band made me realize you can never not excel to a higher level of musicianship. Cobham took the drumzz to another level at that time. I'm still playing today and still learning thanks to Buddy,Ginger,Billy.

Through amazing clips like this we "youngsters" get chances to appreciate how unbelievable the real thing was. I read an article in a magazine about Mahavishnu Orchestra around 1974. It caught my interest. Then I found and bought a cassette of Birds of fire next year. Didn't really get it together when I listened at home ( first side) that night.But... Next day was a different story! One word with the historical drumsolo. I was absolutely hypnotized. Listened to the entire cassette every day for a year or so. So this is kind of a fundament for me as a musician and percussion teacher.

Sadly missed this lineup but caught the 2nd incarnation when they toured the U.K.. This bands canon 🔥should be part of the curriculum of every high school music course, if only to show that what should be impossible is possible and that music can be this amazing. WOW!! It’s hard to believe but John went on to produce an acoustic band ...Shakti who,in their way, were just as good.

That music obviously is created around Bill Cobhams drumming with all members listening closely to that musical tempest. One of the greatest musicians ever. On par with Armstrong, Parker, Reinhard, Coltrane. A creator of a distinctive style of dealing with a musical instrument. McLaughlin also belongs to that realm.

Correct. There are several good vids of them, and watching them, and this one, gives me chills every time I listen to it. This is the greatest gathering of genius jazz rock folks that has ever existed. It is surreal to watch and listen to this. Also, BC is not from this Earth. There is not a single drummer before or since (and I know of most) that can combine his complete mastery of stick control, finger control, open-handed playing, pure speed and power, poly-rythyms, odd time sigs, and utterly insane taste no matter what. He is in league by himself.
