Mahavishnu Orchestra: The Lost Trident Sessions
by Christopher Hoard
This lost-in-the-vault-for-26-years session represents the near-impossible fusion archivist's dream: to find a complete studio release by the fusion era's seminal band at the very height of the creative powers (and the height of tension between members off the stage). Most musicians and fans who remember the force and tides of change generated by John McLaughlin's greatest ...

Jeff "Tain" Watts: Citizen Tain
by David Adler
In the mid 80s a single record got me hooked on straight-ahead jazz, and that record was Wynton Marsalis’s Black Codes from the Underground. The powerhouse drumming of Jeff “Tain" Watts was one of the elements that floored me. Watts remains a pillar of the current scene, playing in Branford Marsalis’s brilliant quartet and doing fine ...
Mahavishnu Orchestra: The Lost Trident Sessions

What is being touted as the discovery of the 90’s or something similar to – finding life on Mars, The Lost Trident Sessions represents The Mahavishnu Orchestra’s 3rd studio album which was preempted in favor of the live “Between Nothingness and Eternity”. Hard to believe something so important could go unnoticed? Well, thanks to producer and ...

This CD is Dixieland Jazz at it's finest !

Amen and Amen. I just checked at one ...
