Listen to an excerpt of Open Country Joy:
Who’s playing? Matt Haimovitz + Uccello, cellos; John McLaughlin, guitar
As with Uccello’s version of Hendrix’s “Machine Gun”, the Mahavishnu Orchestra’s Open Country Joy (from the 1973 album Birds of Fire) is set as a close transcription of the original that retains as much of the original parts as possible.
