Jean-Luc Ponty, "Final Truth, Pt. 1" (1981)

One of my favorites of his, from his "Mystical Adventures" album. I’ve come to love jazz violin, but my ear always goes to the piano solo.
@Harmonium1923, are you familiar with Chris Rhyne (1:27) ?

this kind of stuff is amazing to see live, but I could never get into it listening to a recording. I need rich chord progressions.

I had a friend who was big into mahavishnu orchestra. I had the same feeling about them. It's more about the technical prowess of the musicians than the compositions.

I need something more like this

@SW-User Yeah, Chick Corea was amazing, too. We don’t all have to like the same thing.
