Pat Metheny Group - Travels

Quería compartir algo de Pat Metheny de los ochenta y elegí este disco doble en vivo. Quienes visitan Jazz en la Web saben de mi fascinación por las grabaciones de los conciertos y ésta es de mis favoritas, con la calidad de sonido que garantiza una edición oficial. La banda brilla en Phase Dance, que solía abrir las presentaciones durante muchos años, en la explosión de percusión de Straight On Red y en las versiones de clásicos como Are You Going With Me?, Song For Bilbao y San Lorenzo. (ECM, 1983).
