Pat Metheny: Speaking of Now Live
Pat Metheny is not only the greatest living guitarist but may well be the best in history, and I've seen Andres Segovia live! Not all these songs will please everyone, but the ones that shine (to you) are among the best live music you will ever see. Personally, I think Lyle Mays has the best soft touch and lyricism on the Steinway grand of any living pianist, so you're getting at least TWO of the world's best musicians in one group - this is music history, folks! Standout cuts for me were A Place in the World, Are You Going With Me? (on the incredible 42-string guitar built for Pat by a harpist), and the closing duet with Lyle and Pat (Map of the World). This is a MUST for musicians and jazz fans alike, and anyone who wants to see the BEST living player on his instrument.
