here is a quote related to this band:

After a European tour with Gunther Hampel's Time Is Now Band ("We played
at a fashion show with models wearing stainless steel clothes"), McLaughlin
was in England mixing his first album, "Extrapolation", when he received a
trans-Atlantic call from an old friend, Dave Holland, who had come to the
States to play with Miles Davis. On the phone, he introduced John to Tony
Williams who eventually invited him to come to New York for a recording
date. After a few false starts (they were rejected by Columbia producer Al
Kooper: "That lowered my estimation of *him*."), Tony Williams Lifetime
clicked and Larry Young, Williams and McLaughlin stayed together about two
years. Meanwhile, McLaughlin was simultaneously recording with Miles Davis,
appearing most notably on "In A Silent Way" and "Bitches Brew".
