2025 Release. Recorded live throughout their globe-spanning 50th anniversary tour in 2023, Mind Explosion is the final album from vanguard world fusion ensemble Shakti. To be released on Abstract Logix, it contains a selection of performances carefully curated from countless hours of concert recordings by co-founding guitarist John McLaughlin and Shakti master percussionist Selvaganesh Vinayakram. Mind Explosion is a rapturous celebration of the life, music, and humanity of Zakir Hussain – not just McLaughlin’s original partner in Shakti, but a brother and inspiration to every past and present member of Shakti – who passed away in December 2024. “I am eternally grateful to Zakir,” McLaughlin reflects, “because he was there before the beginning of Shakti to the very end.”
