Nadavati's sole work is an interesting jazz rock album, that opens incongruously with Chicago styled horn charts (think album #1 of Chicago VII or the obscure Quebecois band Syncope). There's a definite Mahavishnu Orchestra streak that prevails, especially considering the violin and guitar parts. Some nice flute jazz too. They seem to favor unison runs to overlong solos, and that scores points in my book. Nadavati do not offer anything that hadn't already been done countless times prior during this era, but for what they do, it's quite excellent.
The CD offers one very relevant and lengthy live bonus track, coming it at nearly 19 minutes ('Moksa').
Ownership: 2015 Soleil Mutant (CD). Liner notes in French and English plus the one aforementioned bonus track.
