Pat Metheny w/ Dave Holland and Roy Haynes: Question and Answer
by Chris May
Question and Answer is the second in a glittering, altogether too infrequent series of albums guitarist Pat Metheny has recorded in acoustic trio settings, usually on the hoof and with little post-production, which act as a counterweight to his more elaborate work with larger line-ups.
