Il nuovo, atteso, lavoro del grande chitarrista jazz. Metheny debutta per una nuova etichetta, Modern Recordings, con un disco diverso ed innovativo. UN disco dove, oltre alla sua inmitabile chitarra, usa anche quella del chitarrista classico Jason Vieaux, per un incredibile viaggio tra jazz e musica da camera, rock ed innovazione. Un disco che fare discutere ma che ci presenta nuovamente la genialità di Metheny, musicista di grande forza espressiva ed al di sopra di ogni sospetto.
Più di 30 dischi a suo nome, 44 anni di carriera, William Hooker un batterista jazz di grande valore. Questo nuovo album, dove è accompagnato da una serie di musicisti di spessore (Jimmy Lopez, Charles Compo, Jai-Rohm Parker Walls, Stephan Gauci etc), è un lavoro intrigante, trasversale, innovativo. Un disco nuovo, in tutti i sensi, da parte di un musicista che non ha mai smesso di darci grande musica.
