This subtle, sublime collaboration finds bassist Charlie Haden and guitarist Pat Metheny crafting bejewelled chamber duets that transcend genre. With their shared Missouri lineage as a thematic touchstone, Haden and Metheny forge a lyrical, mostly acoustic style at once intimate and expansive. Both pare their playing to a Zen-like economy, focusing on a purity of tone, clarity of harmony, and counterpoint to achieve a tender lyricism.

Hi Stevee_S

I've got the 24 bit version of this but apart from the more conventional tracks (Foreign Affair, Shadow on the Wall and Moonlight Shadow) I'm finding it very hard to get into this album. Not like me when it comes to Mr. Oldfield.

Don't know that one. I'll give it a spin now on Spotify.

Hi Stevee_S

I have to agree with you Sorren it's OK but that's about it unfortunately. The upside is I didn't go and buy it on spec' just listening via Quobuz.

Have to say that I am really disappointed with the Quobuz music database. There appears to be vast amounts of artists and albums totally MIA. For example a quick search for King Crimson has turned up absolutely nothing, zip, nada, rien, sweet FA!

Eric Clapton "There's One In Every Crowd" (Spotify Premium)

Posted on: 03 February 2014 by MDS

Some of the recorded memories on this album makes listening to it apposite in the centenary of the start of WWI

Now for a little more from the metrognomes of Zürich...

good listenin'
