  • Pat Metheny: "What's It All About" (available June 14th)
    "To me, there were always several interesting things about this piece," Metheny says of Carly Simon's first major hit (That's The Way I Always Heard It Should Be), "not the least of which is the way that she moves from root minor key to the major key just a half step above it so effortlessly in a way that is almost invisible. But also, I always just thought it was a great melody, with that big leap at the end of the first phrase. And form wise, the way it goes through this whole thing and then starts back up again to make the same build again. My take on it harmonically colors in some of what I always thought was implied in there."
    After nearly 40 recordings under his own name, this is the first Pat Metheny album where there is not a single Metheny composition represented. This is a personal view of ten classic songs, some very well known, some less so, filtered through the harmonic and melodic ideology of a modern master with a most individual approach.

    In my humble-but-most-accurate opine, very few excel at 'purely-musical' interpretation - then, its revelation on the guitar of compositions by others - better than Mr. Metheny; even those considerable tunes with lyrics. And he's been doing this, exponentially and dramatically, for a long time. He is to be lauded, commended and recommended for his expertise within this unique style. An amazing instrumentalist. I think we kindred recognize genius when it presents itself - and then, to our utter amazement.

      Mr. Shank, I read youtube comments with feelings and with thought, and some trepidation, of course. Your words here help me to feel like what I have enjoyed and has thrilled me isn't too far off of what the experienced and talented ones recognize as 'good'. I play some guitar and I loved your words. Thanks.

    Pat Metheny's version was beautiful, but I truly like your version more. I played the video at %75 speed and it was close to the original song and added a bit more of that "raining on a sunny day" feel. I would love to hear it replayed a little slower if you ever felt up to it. Either way simply amazing!

    I would SO love to see a TAB music book of this new solo album, which I have been very highly anticipating. I am currently building a Baritone to be set up for your "partial Nashville" tuning so that I can learn the tunes you so beautifully transcribed in your "One Quiet Night" book.
    All the best to you, and thanks so much for your constant inspiration.

    That's an overstatement, I suspect. He acknowledges that music comes from a source that transcends the material realm as we understand it. He was raised around (not "in," really) a pretty bizarre sect in Missouri, which probably did quite a bit to cultivate an aversion to religion -- something I share, even though I'm a Christian believer. And yes, I earnestly believe that Pat and his music are gifts from a loving God. :-)
