DEVOTION

One of early McLaughlin solo album is really interesting one! Whenever it was released in 1970 - a great year for first generation of guitar heroes, as Santana or Hendrix, you will feel there this atmosphere perfectly.

Buddy Miles, former Hendrix Band of Gypsy's drummer, add much to common sound. The music there is heavy and psychedelic jazz-rock, with fast, energetic and very "rock" sound of McLaughlin guitar. Long jam-like solos are perfectly supported by drums and keyboards.

Soft and jazzy McLaughlin guitar technique is easy recognizable, but in all other this album could be just another Hendrix work. One of classic McLaughlin's album, must have for every this great guitarist's fan.
