5 stars Absolutely excellent - superb - divine. Though I have long since stopped listening to this style of music with regularity, it still sends chills up my spine every time I hear it. I first heard this back in the early 1970's in college. I had to buy a copy. I went to see them when they came to my college - SUNY at New Paltz. Saw every show. When CDs came out and I finally had a CD drive, this is one of the very first that I purchased. It ranks with Fragile and Close to the Edge by YES, In the Court of the Crimson King by King Crimson, ELP, 70's Chick Corea, 70's Miles Davis. Jan Hammer (keyboard) did Miami Vice theme. Mahavishnu was Miles trained. This is excellence personified.
