180g audiophile vinyl reissue of the Pat Metheny's '80/81'.

Metheny's strongest improvisational recording brought him into the orbit of some heavy players. On this double album, the 26-year-old guitarist could engage with the saxophones of Dewey Redman and Michael Brecker, and ride the surging pulsations supplied by a first-ever rhythm section teaming of Charlie Haden and Jack DeJohnette.

"What results is an always fascinating, often provocative performance from all involved. Mike Brecker's marvelous swooping and soaring improvisation of 'First Folk Song' is one of his finest recorded moments" - High Fidelity
