Pat Metheny, Brad Mehldau - Metheny / Mehldau

"Have a seat. The doctor/dentist will be with you in a moment..."

I like Brad Mehldau. I really do. And I kind of like Pat Metheny. But I have never been a big huge fan of jazz guitar, and unfortunatley, that's what Pat plays. So, I tried not to think too hard about what was in store for me. I tried to believe that as a jazz musician, I would be able to learn from this music. I tried to believe that Mehldau would balance out the guitar and I would actually enjoy this CD. I even listened to it more than once (more than twice) to see if maybe I started to "get" it or it grew on me. Unfortunately, the only thing that happened is I discovered where dentists and doctors get their piped in waiting room music. Some people may like this album, but it is definitely not my cup of hot mocha. March 19, 2008

Over-busy

Hmmm....I dunno about this one. True, it does sound like the classic Jim Hall/Bill Evans disc, as some point out. On the other hand, it's a bit lifeless, sounds at times like over-busy noodling by each musician as they ignore each other, or try to top each other, only both at once. I wish they had maybe taken more time to rehearse the tunes, make some arrangements with some s p a c e between the notes. October 27, 2007

CD is incompatible with iTunes - caveat emptor

As this CD has some trick that makes it impossible for a PC CD reader to work, it has been impossible to load this CD into my iTunes. I couldn't read any warning about this trick on the CD cover. I would gladly return it. I feel cheated. October 15, 2007
