I don't see any discussion of "My Goals Beyond" in the Mahavishnu Orchestra page. It featured Cobham and Goodman and is to my knowledge the first recording when McLaughlin began using the name "Mahavishnu John McLaughlin". I think it is worth a reference on this page.

[edit] Mahavishnu

I really don't think that Mahavishnu stuff should be included w/ mahavishnu orchestra stuff, for the following reasons:

   1)They are not hte same name
   2)Even if you consider the names close enough, heres why I think such should not be considered corrrect:
    Tho McLaughlin may have made many productions between the break up of the 1st Mahavishnu Orchestra, and the 2nd, none of them were real high profile.  Between 2nd Mahavishnu Orchestra, and Mahavishnu, however there is quite a high profile near career to consider.

Please reconsider this!
