RSD TITLE!!!!! Impex Records is proud to present an exclusive Record Store Day 2026 edition of guitar icon John McLaughlin's surprising new jazz fusion LP. The unexpected 2025 audiophile hit release of an in-development film score features McLaughlin's signature fiery, complex style and yearning spiritual exploration, bringing dramatic sweep to both hot-fusion rave-ups and evocative ballads. His scorching electric and mellifluous acoustic guitar melodies are boosted to incredible heights by the virtuosic performances from Gary Husband (drums/keyboards), Julian Siegel (saxophone), Misha Mullov-Abbado, and Etienne Mbappé (bass). These industry vets spark fire on heavier tunes like "The Scene "and introspective delicacy on the ballad "Nathaniel and Christine," creating one of the most unexpected independent jazz releases of the year! The Record Store Day version is limited to 500 copies and pressed on "Brooklyn Sunset" swirl 180-gram vinyl at Record Technology. It delivers spectacular sound and is the only way to experience McLaughlin's personal version of the album-closer "The End." Music from Abandoned Heights is a can't-miss pick up for fans of John McLaughlin and great jazz-rock music!
