Wowzers, fired from Mahavishnu Orchestra! Me never know.
Great interview.
Billy didn't elaborate on that ,but from the interviews I read with BC,he wanted to write some of the bands songs so he could get writing credits too.(that's how you make the money)
John McLaughlin and he butted heads over that ,and JM fired him.
Jean Luc Ponty told JM to shove it over writing credits too.
Anybody else notice the MO changed personnel drastically over the first 3 albums?
JM was being a bit of an eh hole.
Hey Geezer,
We've already interviewed a few folks in your list for upcoming episodes, and we're working on the others. Spoken to Roy H. On the phone and hoping he'll go ahead with it. He is definitely on the top of our list, too!
Joe
