Free Music Review: Thanks Pat!
Hit: 5 Stars
Even though i have come a long way since my going-to-the-beach-with-the-Pat-Metheny-group-playing-on-the-car-stereo days, it is still VERY refreshing to listen to these tracks. The group really found their niche with this album (which is a unique mix of jazz, rock and american folk).
Looking back this was really the entrance door for me into the world of jazz and though now i listen to more REAL jazz than in those care free days i often find my self wondering if i'll ever again find a group that changes my musical direction the way the Pat Metheny group did. Surely the younger generation will not experience the same as the world (along with the musical world) has totally changed since 1978...but i sure hope they feel the joy that i experienced when i got to know this album.
Long live the true and sincere music from true, sincere AND real artists!
Pat Metheny Group Poster
Having crisscrossed America to the tune of 250 to 300 one-nighters a year while getting their sound and repertoire together, the Pat Metheny Group struck gold with this self-titled jazz-fusion classic in 1978. All the familiar components that have defined their evolution over the last 20 years are in place on Pat Metheny Group: the leader's dark, reverberant electric guitar sound and graceful acoustic colorations; pianist Mays's blend of Presbyterian hymnbook major-chord hosannas, Bill Evans-styled minor mystery, and orchestral synthesizer effects; the rolling, cymbal-inflected groove of Dan Gottlieb; and the Jaco Pastorious-influenced melodic bass lines of Mark Egan. On "San Lorenzo" and "Phase Dance" the band defined their anthemic blend of electric jazz, progressive rock, and roots Americana, while the countrylike intro to "Jaco," the sublime acoustic romance of "April Wind" and the brisk jazz samba changes of "Lone Jack" (with the leader's jaunty, lightly echoed melodic lead) speak to Metheny's interest in a wide range of source material--with a commitment to both extended forms and the art of improvisation. --Chip SternJazz Music CDs
