John McLaughlin

 
At the risk of sounding hopelessly romantic, love is the key element. I really love to play with different musicians who come from different cultural backgrounds.
John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin

Interplay and interaction are the integral parts of music - they're as important as the notes.
John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin

John McLaughlin
