    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.

    With the exception of an arrangement of a traditional South Indian piece "Kriti," McLaughlin and Shankar contribute all of the compositions, which lean even more heavily toward South Indian music with reminders of McLaughlin's Western roots. As a whole, this is less accessible to McLaughlin's jazz-rock flock than the first Shakti album, but still fascinating for contemporary listeners with a yen for world music, as well as curious stragglers from the classical Indian world dominated by Ravi Shankar (another indefatigable champion of East-West fusions).

    Personnel:
    John McLaughlin - Acoustic Guitar
    L.Shankar - Violin
    Zakir Hussain - Tabla
    T.H.Vinayakram (Vikku) - Ghatam (claypot) and Mdidangam

    The third and final Shakti recording from the '70s. The songs here are shorter than those on Shakti and Handful of Beauty, but no less impressive. The novelty of combining Eastern and Western musical styles had worn off and McLaughlin sounds comfortable. This allows for memorable compositions and interchanges, rather than the blistering virtuosity that characterized the first two releases. From the intense ("Daffodil and the Eagle") to the joyful ("Happiness Is Being Together"), Natural Elements stands as a milestone in McLaughlin's illustrious career.

    Personnel:
    John McLaughlin - Acoustic Guitar, Vocals
    L.Shankar - Violin, Viola, Vocals
    Zakir Hussain - Tabla, Timbales, Bongos, Dholak, Nal, Triangle, Vocals
    T.H.Vinayakram - Ghatam, Nal, Kanjeera, Moorsing (Juice Harp), Vocals

    tracklist:
    01. Mind Ecology
    02. Face To Face
    03. Come On Baby Dance With Me
    04. The Daffodil And The Eagle
    05. Happiness Is Being Together
    06. Bridge Of Sighs
    07. Get Down And Sruti
    08. Peace Of Mind
