One Truth Band: Friendship Posted by: bazonics
Video duration: 358 seconds Quality poor. My favourite live band in mclaughlins career after mahavishnu 1+2 is the one truth band. Saw them at the Rainbow-London in 1979 and they took the roof off. Main feature here is a keyboard solo by the brilliant (and often underrated) Stu Goldberg.
