Pat Metheny Group: The Way Up

Read "The Way Up" reviewed by Mark Sabbatini

by Mark Sabbatini

Pat Metheny hasn't exactly been on a roll lately. The guitarist typically alternates safe and daring work, satisfying mainstream hordes while reassuring purists he's still among the modern masters. But lately it's been more mellow and less leaving the nest, and some of it sounds long in the tooth. So it's refreshing that, even ...

Pat Metheny Group: The Way Up

Read "The Way Up" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

Titled with his customary forward-thinking optimism, The Way Up is Pat Metheny's first project for Nonesuch Records. For all its intricacy, this ambitious group endeavor, a single extended composition in four parts, brings to mind the earliest, and comparatively simpler, works of the guitarist composer when he first established a four-piece band under his own name ...

The Way Up

Read "The Way Up" reviewed by John Kelman

by John Kelman

Like him or not, the one thing you cannot accuse guitar icon Pat Metheny of is complacency. Over the course of his thirty-year career he has tackled everything from the Midwestern folk sensibility of New Chautauqua to the free-spirited interplay of his collaboration with Ornette Coleman, Song X. But as significant and diverse as his solo ...

The Pat Metheny Group: The Way Up

Read "The Way Up" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

From the opening sounds of traffic in Manhattan to the ascending coda, the Pat Metheny Group's The Way Up is a penetrating 68-minute statement about the search for meaning. Pat Metheny has been a clear voice in jazz since the release of his classic treatise, Bright Size Life, produced when he was 22 years ...

Brad Mehldau: Live in Tokyo

Read "Live in Tokyo" reviewed by Peter Aaron

by Peter Aaron

Detractors of pianist Brad Mehldau say his notoriety is merely a case of arriving at the right the time, of simply being the most visible Bill Evans disciple to come along in thirty-five years. They sometimes add that despite Evans' obvious influence, Mehldau's style owes more to his own European classical background than the late genius's ...

Brad Mehldau: Live in Tokyo

Read "Live in Tokyo" reviewed by AAJ Staff

by AAJ Staff

Far be it from me to judge a record by its slipcover, but the photo of Brad Mehldau gracing the jacket of the pianist's new solo CD, Live in Tokyo (arms crossed, head bowed, jet-black background) made my heart sink. For if the prodigiously talented Mehldau has a tragic flaw, it's the self-conscious preciousness that seeps ...
