Title Note

Pat Metheny Trio: Pat Metheny (synthesizer, acoustic, electric, 42-string & 12-string fretless guitars); Larry Grenadier (acoustic bass); Bill Stewart (drums).

Recorded live in 1999 and 2000.

The live performance is the ideal medium for a talent like Pat Metheny, and this double-live set captures the guitar master with his trio over a series of 1999-2000 performances. As a unit, the group has a synergy uncommon among such short-lived ensembles. Their feel for each other's musical communication is at some points uncanny. Metheny in turn is just as accommodating to his partners, happy to play a supporting role when needed.

The music covered by the group includes a great deal of Metheny's older material, a few cherished standards, and a handful of recent compositions. Among the Metheny favorites are his early piece "Bright Size Life," the raucous "Question and Answer," and the pastel-hued "Unity Village." It's always a treat to hear players of this caliber wail away at standards, and their reworkings of "Giant Steps" and "All the Things You Are" are highlights. Other stellar performances are the off-kilter burner "Faith Healer," featuring a joyously noisy Metheny, and the swinging "Soul Cowboy."
