For fans of Gentle Giant & The Mahavishnu Orchestra
I was watching some horror shorts on Youtube the other night, and for some reason a couple of music videos popped up in the recommended pane, and it's as if they knew exactly what I liked to listen to... (worryingly I think that's exactly the case). However, in this instance I'll let them off, as the videos were an hour long concert from Gentle Giant, recorded at the Paris Theatre for the BBC in 1978, and two concerts from the Mahavishnu Orchestra from 1972 - a half hour gig recorded for the BBC and an hour and twenty minute live concert from France.I'm a fan of both bands, and the Mahavishnu Orchestra in particular, having half a dozen bootlegs from their classic early 70's period, so being able to see them as well is a treat. If you like either of these bands and haven't seen these videos then do yourself a favour and check them out. It's astonishing to see the Giant's live rendition of 'On Reflection', and John McLaughlin & Co produced some of the best music in the world during their heyday.
Thanks - awesome
