In the 1970s, Billy Cobham was one of the most dynamic names in jazz-rock fusion. He recorded with Miles Davis and John McLaughlin’s Mahavishnu Orchestra before striking out on his own. He became highly influential in jazz and rock drum sounds, with his high pitched, tuned drums and his interesting mixtures of traditional beats with experimental melodic drumming. This album is a re-release of the second of five albums…
This album was made with a fairly impressive cast of musicians including Randy Jackson on bass, Pete Escovedo on percussion, as well as Pete Maunu on guitar and Mark Soskin on keyboards. Additionally Alvin Baptiste adds clarinet on several tracks, which seems to alternate between truly innovative and simply out-of-place. Much of this album feels dated to the modern listener, especially when songs will be broken out of for extended grooves with the band doing a vocal shout chorus.

Could this be the granddaddy of both new age and the world music movement? Fresh from his sojourn with Miles Davis's groundbreaking electric fusion band, guitarist John McLaughlin continued to explore that style with his own explosive electric group, the Mahavishnu Orchestra. However, he also recognized an affinity between jazz and Indian music, and began that investigation…

John McLaughlin - Industrial Zen (2006)

Widely recognized as one of the most innovative and influential guitar players since the 1960s, John McLaughlin has forged a musical path that has seen him flirt with everything from hard rock to world music. A fusion player in the true sense of the word, McLaughlin continued his progressive stylistic synthesis on 2006's INDUSTRIAL ZEN. While the guitarist is also known for his meditative work (especially his experiments with Indian music), INDUSTRIAL ZEN is something of a return to the jazz fusion that marked McLaughlin's work with Miles Davis and his own group the Mahavishnu Orchestra. Drummer Dennis Chambers, saxophonist Bill Evans, and guitar virtuoso Eric Johnson, among others, are on hand to lend sparks to the icon's six-string wizardry.

Since the 1970's John McLaughlin's long career has always taken mysical turns, from the Mahavishnu Orchestra to Shakti. Here on "Industrial Zen", McLaughlin turns his well honed skills to Jazz fusion. He is joined by many names that brought power-house jazz fusion to the frontline during the '90's, including Bill Evans, Gary Husband, Mark Mondesir, Vinnie Colauta and Dennis Chambers as well as Texas guitar legend Eric Johnson.

Contrairement aux saxophonistes ou aux pianistes, les guitaristes de jazz ne sont guère légions. Mais lorsqu’ils se font remarquer, ils deviennent souvent un genre à eux seuls. John McLaughlin entre de plein pied dans cette catégorie. Au point que le guitariste anglais né en 1942 soit l'une des plus importantes figures du jazz fusion. Étincelant dans le premier groupe électrique de Miles Davis à la fin des années 60 (il est au cœur d’In A Silent Way, album révolutionnaire du trompettiste), McLaughlin deviendra surtout une superstar au sein du Mahavishnu Orchestra, formation vénérée proposant un audacieux cocktail mêlant jazz, rock et musique indienne.

Joined by keyboardist Jan Hammer (of Mahavishnu Orchestra), guitarist Tommy Bolin, and bassist Lee Sklar, Cobham delivers a hard-grooving, sophisticated performance that stands among the era’s best fusion recordings.
