Cleveland, OH
April 21st, 1972
Soundboard Recording

02 You know you know
03 The Dance of Maya
04 The Noonward Race

John McLaughlin - guitar
Jan Hammer - keyboards
Jerry Goodman - violin
Rick Laird - bass guitar
Billy Cobham - drums

Also on the bill for this show were West, Bruce & Laing and Procol Harum, Mahavishnu Orchestra was the opening act. This show was professionally recorded and John McLaughlin loved it so much he tried to have CBS release it. Alas it still hasn't been officially released, which is sad because this is a kick ass performance. To have this recording come out with a professional mix would be fantastic. Since that is not the case we have this remastered version of Firepower Records bootleg. If you love John McLaughlin and/or Mahavishnu Orchestra I can not recommend this recording more.
