An Evening with Pat Metheny with Larry Grenadier

One of the most revered guitarists in contemporary jazz is settling in for a week-long residency at the Blue Note, accompanied by longtime foil Larry Grenadier. Pat Metheny has played with the bassist in a number of groups before, and the two got along so well that they've decided to strike out as a duo. These Tokyo gigs come on the back of a series of dates in the US in the autumn of 2011, during which the pair unearthed some seldom-heard Metheny pieces while studiously ignoring his recent album of pop covers, What's It All About.
