This album is from a pivotal moment in McLaughlin's history.
Recorded in 1970 at the height of his work with Miles Davis, but before the Mahavishnu Orchestra and arguably one of the finest acid rock albums of all time.
McLaughlin is on fire, using fuzzboxes and phasers, over Larry Young's swirling Hammond B-3, with Billy Rich and Buddy Miles as the rock-solid rhythm section.
A stunning piece of prog jazz

LABELS: MINT
An immaculate set of labels - no spindle traces or any signs of use
VINYL Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces shine like new with nothing but harmless in-vinyl pressing blemishes
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Superb sound - crystal clear, sharp, deep and rich - beautifully recorded and engineered and my play-check at volume found little to fault - slight touch of static - nothing really - like new - fantastic LP - very highly recommended indeed
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Clean and unmarked - light storage rub to the edges and surfaces - nothing major
RED INNER SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Clean and unmarked with just one tiny central split to one side edge
