This show, as well as an early show on the same night, were last minute 
additions to the PMG schedule, just prior to them leaving for a series 
of dates in Japan and, later, the European tour (see MAAP 1). Before a 
hometown crowd (the PMG was based in Boston at this time), this is one 
of the most high-energy shows we've ever heard from the first PMG. 
Whereas the early show, which featured the same set list, was well-played 
if unspectacular - due perhaps to the time constraints imposed by the 
second show - this late show found the PMG free to stretch out and to 
take both old and new compositions into previously unexplored terrain. 
This early version of "As Falls Wichita," for which Pat jokingly tells the 
audience he is considering the title "I Don't Want To Get Drafted," is 
a particular highlight.  Enjoy!

Notes from the Festival Jazz di Roma program:

June 10 - PAT METHENY GROUP

"The Pat Metheny Group has been consistently regarded as the most valid modern group, the one with the greatest success among those living in the no-man's land between jazz and rock.

"Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays recently played in the U.S. together with Jaco Pastorius and Joni Mitchell, and the Pat Metheny Group is now on the top of the U.S. jazz charts with their latest release "American Garage".

"If the wind could sing, it would sound like the music from this impressionist jazz quartet."
