It's late night/early morning, so I'm playing music that won't wake up the neighbors. Here's Pat Metheny from the 1980's, cool enough for a VH-1 music video, great enough to greet the soon-to-arrive dawn.

AMG Review of Still Life (Talking)
Alex Henderson
All Music GuideWhile Brazilian music had captured Pat Metheny's attention since the '70s, he placed an especially strong emphasis on Brazilian elements in the late '80s. A master of uniting seemingly disparate elements as a cohesive whole, the imaginative guitarist effectively combines Brazilian-influenced harmonies and rhythm with jazz, folk, and pop elements on "So May It Secretly Begin," "Third Wind," "Minuano (Six Eight)," and other celebrated gems included on Still Life (Talking). The Brazilian leanings are put aside on one of Metheny's most unique offerings ever, "Last Train Home," which boasts a charming Western theme that brings to mind a peaceful journey across the Arizona desert. That may not sound like the description of a jazz piece, but then, making the unlikely a reality is among Metheny's many admirable qualities.

A dynamic track from "Still Life (Talking)" which suggests springtime activities. Or does it hint at something else? It's early Friday morning, and I'm off to the land of nod.
