here's my review, in case you're not a member or not logged in:

"I've seen some of the best pulls on the internet here at Lossless Legs - at least this past year anyway. From GD to Clapton, Doors, or Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, over to Sam Bush, Tony Rice, David Grisman, and even Jerry Moore's Commander Cody tapes. I've barely scratched the surface. Shakti could be LL's best torrent ever. I'm speechless. -- Monte

I cannot find a better played album anywhere in my pile. -- from scribbled notes on my old cassette copy, circa mid-70s:

Columbia Records LP

mahavishnu john mclaughlin is a phenomenal musician in any incarnation. I often listen to Shakti and marvel at the sheer speed of his guitar playing. thanks for the links suggestion. Country Joe had a superb album War War War which is good but very heavy. Peace .
