It might have been early 1974, or it might have been a tape. Or it might have been someone else that I confused with Pat Metheny. What other hot young smooth jazz guitarists were just starting to emerge on the scene in the 1969-74 time frame? >I suggest that you might be confusing Pat Metheny with Pat Martino. No. >Or else you just meant to type 1979, or 1989, or 1999... I meant to type 1969, because at the time I was in a band with a jazz pianist/organist from New England Conservatory. My recollection is that he and I were at some gig at NEC and that this recorded guitar music was playing over the PA and somebody said that it was Pat Metheny. The guitar tone was clean, he was playing in octaves, and the rhythm and changes were very inside. -- ______________________________________________________________ Richard Zvonar, PhD (818) 788-2202 http://www.zvonar.com http://RZCybernetics.com http://www.cybmotion.com/aliaszone http://www.live365.com/cgi-bin/directory.cgi?autostart=rz
