Yeah, Pat has been playing How Insensitive (written by Antonio Carlos Jobim, musically based on Chopin's Prelude in E minor) for years and years, and it's always different and it's always beautiful and always brilliant. I caught the current Pat Metheny Group tour back in March, which was genius ... every song, every note played by everybody. Just as it has been every time I've ever heard the group over the decades. Ultimate world class consistency, for 25 years. What other contemporary music group has been writing, playing, and recording on the level they've been doing it on, as consistently as they've been doing it, for as long? No other. By the way, John, did you enjoy the gig? -Fred
