John McLaughlin's albums
In February 1969 John McLaughlin had only just landed in the United States and knew nothing of the New York scene. Within the same month he was called into the In a Silent Way sessions and told to play like a man who had never touched a guitar. A year later, on Bitches Brew (1970), his name is the title of a track.
