John McLaughlin has one of the richest artistic legacies in modern music, not only due to his unmatched technique but also his boundless curiosity. From early masterpieces Extrapolation and Love Devotion Surrender (with Carlos Santana), to the genre-bending invention of Mahavishnu Orchestra and the blistering acoustic explorations with Al Di Meola and Paco de Lucia, John has always sought the new and transcendent. Now, he has brought his singular vision to the world of film music with his score for the upcoming movie: Abandoned Heights. Compositionally, McLaughlin poured his imagination into the film's script to craft a rich blend of hot fusion and pensive ballads. McLaughlin's searing electric and mellifluous acoustic guitar lines are assertively supported by virtuosic performances from frequent collaborators Gary Husband (drums/keyboards), Julian Siegel (saxophone), Misha Mullov-Abbado and Etienne (bass). These industry vets gracefully spark fire on heavier tunes like ''The Scene'' and introspective delicacy on the ballad ''Nathaniel and Christine.'' Impex Records is delighted to bring you the newest incarnation of John McLaughlin's storied career, as he continues his quest for the sublime.
