  • Jim Hall & Pat Metheny Acclaimed Duo Album Reissue Out Now

    The acclaimed 1999 album Jim Hall & Pat Metheny, reissued for the first time on Nonesuch Records, is out now. Pat Metheny's duo collaboration with Jim Hall, whom he has called the "father of modern guitar playing," features 17 tracks: original tunes from each guitarist, several improvisations captured in the studio, plus six tunes recorded live in concert, including Gershwin's "Summertime." "The excellence of the playing is the heart of the matter," says the Philadelphia Inquirer of the album. "It's a privilege to listen in." The Los Angeles Times calls it "extraordinary."

About this Album

These five tracks were recorded live in Tokyo, with Metheny's trio, featuring bassist Christian McBride and drummer Antonio Sanchez (“arguably his best” ensemble yet, says the Boston Herald), at the end of 2004, before they went into the studio to record Day Trip. Several tracks were previously available as downloads; this will be the first time all five are available together on CD.
