Title: a little R&R
Review: I've been a Pat Metheny fan for years. I have most of his releases and find myself coming back to this CD alot. I think American Garage has a more of a rock n roll feel to it. I think Pat was experimenting with a garage band sound. The sound is probably not as polished as some of other efforts but I think it shows that Pat Metheny can mixed it up when he wants. He is always trying to add & experiment with new ideas This CD exemplifies that and show Pat Metheny in a slightly different lightI think this a worhty effort with lots of interesting guitar work. I particularly like Across the Heartland and Airstream. Most of the songs are easy to listen to although they may seem a little improvisational at times they usually have a nice flow to them. I would recommend this CD particularly as introduction to Methenys work and if you like a little rock & roll with your Jazz. I like New Chautauqua...Pat Metheny Group....First Circle....Imaginary Day as well. Also Travels (live) is excellent
