Check out yesterday's segment to hear about the new chapter in one of his groundbreaking projects, Shakti, the acoustic Indian group that originated after Mahavishnu Orchestra in the 1970s. We hear about their first studio album in 45 years, This Moment, and John also shares the remarkable story of how Shakti first came together by chance through a highly influential get-together in 1972, and talks about Shakti's most bizarre concerts, a run of dates in 1977 opening for Black Sabbath! Today we learn about John's connections to the late Jeff Beck, including a story about their 1975 tour together, as well as his even longer connection to Eric Clapton, dating to the early 1960s. We even have John tell us about his time with Johnny Depp at the recent Jeff Beck memorial!
