Tell Me :
Talk
Awesome! Didn't know that. I'm also a huge fan the Mahavishnu Orchestra!!
Correction;
John McLaughlin - guitar
Billy Cobham - drums
Rick Laird - bass
Jan Hammer - elec. keyboard, synth
Jerry Goodman - violin (not Paganini)
From 18:20 and onwards they play some nice blues, in Mahavishnu fashion.
Stones are a pop band, and the general rules on pop compositions haven't changed that much over the times, you always have an alternation of verses and choruses with some spice on top. Of course different instruments, sounds, recording techniques, but if you are into modern pop music, you don't need to use too much brain to understand a 60 pop hit.
Fusion, on the other hand, has nothing to do with contemporary music. But I am quite sure that if you have a well educated ear, you can still enjoy it today, like you can enjoy loads of great music that is not "pop"-
Problem, now and then, is "education" ...

Of course you can call anybody who has a different taste or another opinion uneducated. Problem, now and then, is style.Anyway, have a nice day, Sir Liddas.
I was not saying that YOU are not educated, and that if one does not like fusion, or jazz or music composed following dodecaphony is necessarily uneducated.
I was just saying that, IN GENERAL, there is a reason why certain genres age better than others.
And to expand on my point of lack of musical education, IN MY EXPERIENCE, musical education is almost non existent, at least here, in Italy. When I was at school, music lessons were a couple of general notions on Verdi's plays and the C major scale on a flute and that's it.
Nowadays kids could have access to loads of great music, but algorithms kill their curiosity.

Mick Taylor saw this band live at the time, staying in the same Hotel. He instantly became a fan. Paganini on Violin.

The Mahavishnu Orchestra fit into the seventies. This kind of music slipped totally out of time - it does not work anymore today. Of course this is my opinion only - if people still enjoy it, it is fine. Even if one is critical towards the Stones I have the impression that their albums aged better than the Mahavishnu Orchestra.

I do not know if this has been noted, but this is a revised and updated site of a previous excellent MT site that was dormant for quite a while. Lots of information here.
