Label: Metheny Group Productions

Musicians: Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Steve Rodby, Paul Wertico, Luis Conte, Mark Ledford, David Blamires

“All of Metheny’s stuff is great. This particular set has such sparkle. Often when a group plays together for so long, a kind of staleness arises; not so with these guys. Man oh man, can Pat play. Metheny is the most decorated guitarist in jazz history, and this one is among his best work. Every song is a gem: they swing, they’re funky, they’re tricky, and yet Pat’s as fresh as a teenager in his American Garage. Whether you think you’ve heard it all from Metheny, or you’re just discovering him, you should really love this one.” —CD Universe
