The Jazz Record Art Collective is proud to present a livestream performance with Chicago fusion group, General Zod performing Mahavishnu Orchestra’s 1971 release INNER MOUNTING FLAME on Thursday, August 12th at Fulton Street Collective.
The night will also feature live painting from visual artist Yvonne Doll.
“This is the album that made John McLaughlin a semi-household name, a furious, high-energy, yet rigorously conceived meeting of virtuosos that, for all intents and purposes, defined the fusion of jazz and rock a year after Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew breakthrough. It also inadvertently led to the derogatory connotation of the word fusion, for it paved the way for an army of imitators, many of whose excesses and commercial panderings devalued the entire movement.”
