By Elias Lieberman • 'A Handful of Beauty" - Shakti with John McLaughlin (Columbia Records) About a year ago, when John McLaughlin had formed an all-acoustic group, I was ecstatic. His solo acoustic guitar album, "My Goal's Beyond' , , had long been one of my favorites, combining elements of Western and Eastern music. So naturally I was excited when the first Shakti album was released last year. In many ways it was a brilliant album, in many .ways a disappointing one. It is impossible to question - McLaughlin's finesse and style but the first Sha~ti album suffered from a lack of contrasts. The music was based on traditional Indian formats, scored for acoustic guitar, violin, tabla and other Indian drums, but the problem with that album was simply that it was too intense. McLaughlin's riffs were lightning fast and exe~uted flawlessly but the music was sterile and barren. Also, the first album was recorded live which (may have) detracted from its overall success. So it was with a skeptical ear that I gave a listen to "A Handful of Beauty", the new album by John Mclaughlin and Shakti. Right from the start one can hear the difference.
