by Walter Kolosky
Guitar great John McLaughlin has been leading his own bands and playing his own compositions for over thirty years. But like most musicians, he has paid his dues.

In one form or another, McLaughlin's three-part ...
A Conversation with John McLaughlin
by Walter Kolosky
Trying to classify guitarist and composer John McLaughlin's music is like trying to grab a handful of mercury. McLaughlin himself is fond of pointing out that words can't describe music anyway.
