For Imaginary Voyage, Ponty's instrumental lineup is identical to that of Mahavishnu -- electric violin, guitar, keyboards, bass, drums -- but he turns the emphasis on its head, with all commands coming directly from the violin (his) and less competitive crossplay emanating from his colleagues. For starters, \"New Country\" is a lively jazz-rock hoedown, one of those periodic C\u0026amp;W side trips that some fusioneers attempted for a lark, and \"The Gardens of Babylon\" is a wonderfully memorable tune, the beginnings of which grow out of \"New Country.\" The last half of the CD is taken up by the title composition, a strong four-part suite that hangs together with barely a sag in interest over its 20-minute span.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jean-Luc_Ponty\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ehttp:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Jean-Luc_Ponty\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 New Country \u003cbr\u003eA2 The Gardens Of Babylon \u003cbr\u003eA3 Wandering On The Milky Way \u003cbr\u003eA4 Once Upon A Dream \u003cbr\u003eA5 Tarantula \u003cbr\u003eB1 Imaginary Voyage (Part I) \u003cbr\u003eB2 Imaginary Voyage (Part II) \u003cbr\u003eB3 Imaginary Voyage (Part III) \u003cbr\u003eB4 Imaginary Voyage (Part Imaginary VI)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Records","offers":[{"title":"1976","offer_id":1020413053,"sku":"K 50317","price":52.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/2072\/products\/R-933606-1174431381.jpeg?v=1571439141","url":"https:\/\/recordpusher.live\/products\/jean-luc-ponty-imaginary-voyage","provider":"RecordPusher - International Vinyl Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
