CD Reviews

Worth buying for "Close to Home" alone

K. Gardiner | London | 01/10/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Many years ago I saw a clip of the Pat Metheny group playing a wonderfully atmospheric tune that I was unable subsequently to find on any Metheny CD - the reason being that it was a Lyle Mays piece, the final track of this CD. Finally tracked it down - thanks to YouTube - and am glad I did. I think Bill Frisell could have been more prominent, and some of the tracks haven't aged well, but if you like Metheny you'll probably like this: Mays is after all a large part of the whole PMG experience."

Stunning

"I'll make this brief. I've been following Metheny and Mays for about 20+ years now. And of all the music I own (everything, not just Metheny and Mays), "Alaskan Suite" is one of my favorite songs of all time. It's power is unmatched. Can't begin to (and don't want to) list the images and emotions that this songs evokes. Truly incredible work by Lyle Mays."

Beautiful stuff!

""Slink"(with its elusive core,living up to its name in every way),"Mirror Of The Heart" and the painfully beautiful "Close To Home" make this album for me.Mays somehow evokes an incredible romantic atmosphere in this music.This stuff belongs in its own genre,like "New-Age Super Fusion",or 'Postmodern world jazz-fusion".It's just pure music by any other name."Close To Home" brings me "Close to tears" whenever I hear it.VERY few tunes provoke anything like that from me."
