Shakti headed for the safer confines of a London recording studio on its second album, minus R. Raghavan and minus some of the volatile energy that they generated on their debut record. They were, however, a more integrated, more subtle ensemble now, exploring quieter, more lyrical corners of their East-West fusion, with L. Shankar's spectacular violin and Zakir Hussain's tabla taking the solo foreground as much as, if not more than, McLaughlin's acoustic guitar.

More places to buy SHAKTI WITH JOHN MCLAUGHLIN music online. John McLaughlin should have given this album a different name. Jazz-rock fans of the day early 1977 did not want to be seen purchasing an album with such a title. It didn't help any to have a picture of John McLaughlin on the cover dressed and smiling as if he were a guru himself. Lets face facts, even at this time: McLaughlins fans came from a rock background. Of the three original Shakti albums, Handful of Beauty features the best playing from McLaughlin. Somber does not mean boring. The two master Indian percussionists Zakir Hussain and T. Vinayakaram provide the rhythm and much of the dynamic. The incomparable L. Shankar helps provide the mood.
