   New Pat Metheny album reminds me of this exchange I had in the 90s

   Me: Ever hear of Pat Metheny?

   Friend: Yeah, he’s like Jerry Garcia if Jerry never tried drugs

   Still makes me chuckle.

     @chopaganda @chris I like his composition/improvising but sometimes it feels like his improvisations were born out of a lab. This is especially true in the live setting. I’m don’t listen to this recording though! Thanks for sharing.

     @LittleTokyo @chopaganda @chris i love that pat metheny is a through-line in jazz from wes montgomery but agree his modern output can be a bit sanitized. conversely, this early-career track drips with melody and feeling and would be a desert island type tune for me. https://open.spotify.com/track/50viXdCMbGMgELb4Izu4wg?si=FMhL_t4vR_eS9XITV7r_bw
