Pat Metheny Group Lyle Mays Pat Metheny Lyle Mays/MI,USA 1978

This is a live recording from the early days of the Pat Metheny Group. Although it is an audience recording, it is a high-quality item that you can proudly hold in your hands, even though there are many soundboard recordings. At the beginning of “PHASE DANCE”, the sound was quite distorted from left to right (this song often starts the live performance, so it often gets distorted due to the recording person’s positioning and volume adjustment…), but it was restored considerably by diligent work like repairing an excavated work of art. In addition, the sound pressure has been increased overall by remastering. In the case of audience recordings, this label basically cuts between songs, but Metheny’s speech was recorded very easily and was edited by the taper himself, so this time the label has edited it as if it had been “rearranged”.
