WELCOME TO LPCDREISSUES
On Avery Fisher Hall, New York 1973 (2CD), Mahavishnu Orchestra is represented by a substantial programme with roots in Jazz, Progressive. Songs such as Birds of Fire, Sister Andrea and The Dance of Maya establish the musical range, while the full sequence shows the shifts in intensity that define the performance.
It is a useful release for listeners who already know the best-known recordings and want to hear the material from another angle. The archive-style presentation emphasises atmosphere, repertoire and performance detail rather than trying to recreate a studio sound.
