As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls

Pat Metheny on stage in Lugano
(Re)playing this album by Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays (with percussionist Nana Vasconcelos) always is a pleasure! This record is typical for the "jazz explorer" in Pat Metheny, as the titletrack - a superb 20 minutes crescendo - particularly well illustrates.

Whether with his band (Pat Metheny Group), alone or in reunion with other jazz musicians (Lyle Mays - quoted above - and more recently Brad Meldhau), Pat Metheny is sunny a musician ! His jazz (rock) sound bright, happy and always accessible.

Samples are available on Amazon.
