Matteus Mancuso has gotten a lot of well-deserved attention, but Joshua Meader deserves at least as much. He is a next-level guitar player, breaking new ground like crazy.

This adaptation was next level for me. Not many guitarists would attempt this Metheny song, especially with all those chord changes over that 3/4 feel. Sixteenth-note flurries that kept going up and down the neck. The improvisation, and the fact that you did not repeat yourself note-wise, places you in virtuoso status. My favorite to date! Amazing.

I agree, this guy is not like many guitarists. He eats jazz since he was a kid and play all day. He reached a level out of this world, incredible indeed

probably the most underrated and underappreciated Pat Metheny record mostly because it had a hit song on it last train home-the only one that ever got any airplay even on straight jazz stations sadly, when the rest of the record is just absolutely burning Brazilian killer polyrhythmic amazing stuff you featuring it!

Sounds great but less is more..the problem with technical guitar work is that sometimes emotional content goes missing between the arpeggios Wes Montgomery was one of Pat’s guitar heroes he was a master and huge advocate of less is more. The space between the notes and how you phase them is just as important as how fast you can play scales in fact it’s more difficult to do.
