* {{Fanservice}}: Non-sexual example (thankfully, given the leader's age) - the concluding "You Know You Know" is the only Mahavishnu Orchestra piece of the evening, and [=McLaughlin=] throws various [[EpicRiff famous riffs]] into the [[CallAndResponseSong call and response]] section - among them "[[Music/JimiHendrix Foxey Lady]]", "[[Music/MilesDavis Jean-Pierre]]", and "[[Music/TheAllmanBrothersBand Mountain Jam]]". The crowd responds as expected - [[IncrediblyLamePun he knew they'd know]], you see.

Real Life troping; Cool Old Guy is a narrative trope and deemed NRLEP because of that


''The Boston Record'' is a 2014 LiveAlbum by Music/JohnMcLaughlin and the 4th Dimension, a jazz-rock group. Recorded at Berklee College in June 2013, ''The Boston Record'' features the [[CoolOldGuy 72-year old]] guitarist revisiting seven of his past compositions along with "Echoes From Then" and "Call & Answer" from the band's 2012 album, ''[[PunBasedTitle Now Here This]]''. Heavier than the rest of the band's output so far, it sonically resembles [=McLaughlin's=] early work with The Music/TonyWilliams Lifetime and his own Mahavishnu Orchestra.

''The Boston Record'' is a 2014 LiveAlbum by John [=McLaughlin=] and the 4th Dimension, a jazz-rock group. Recorded at Berklee College in June 2013, ''The Boston Record'' features the [[CoolOldGuy 72-year old]] guitarist revisiting seven of his past compositions along with "Echoes From Then" and "Call & Answer" from the band's 2012 album, ''[[PunBasedTitle Now Here This]]''. [[MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness Heavier]] than the rest of the band's output so far, it sonically resembles [=McLaughlin's=] early work with The Tony Williams Lifetime and his own Mahavishnu Orchestra.

!! ''The Boston Record'' demonstrates the following tropes:
* CallAndResponseSong: One piece is actually titled "Call & Answer". The device is also very prominent on "You Know You Know".
* CallBack
* EpicRocking: Only "Señor C.S." clocks in under six minutes long.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: It's a LiveAlbum recorded in UsefulNotes/{{Boston}}.
* {{Fanservice}}: Non-sexual example (thankfully, given the leader's age) - the concluding "You Know You Know" is the only Mahavishnu Orchestra piece of the evening, and [=McLaughlin=] throws various [[EpicRiff famous riffs]] into the [[CallAndResponseSong call and response]] section - among them "[[Music/JimiHendrix Foxey Lady]]", "[[Music/MilesDavis Jean-Pierre]]", and "[[Music/TheAllmanBrothersBand Mountain Jam]]". The crowd responds as expected - [[IncrediblyLamePun he knew they'd know]], you see.
* FunkRock: "Little Miss Valley" qualifies as jazz-funk-rock.
* GratuitousForeignLanguage: One song, "Abbaji", is titled after the Hindu for "father".
* {{Instrumentals}}: Only two songs have vocals.
** LimitedLyricsSong: "Abbaji" has only two lines - "love and understanding" and "love is understanding".
** {{Scatting}}: "Echoes From Then"
* LeadDrummer: Ranjit Barot may not have his name in the band title, but he has plenty of soloing space and handles all of the vocal duties.
* NewSoundAlbum: Inverted - here, the band moves back towards [=McLaughlin's=] old sound.
* RearrangeTheSong: Most of the songs are treated as harder rock pieces in the live setting.
* ShoutOut: "Señor C.S." is a tribute to [[Music/Santana Carlos Santana]], one of [=McLaughlin's] occasional bandmates.
