Customer Rating:      Summary: Nice Music Comment: This was nice, but I think I was expecting a bit more, still very nice.
Customer Rating:      Summary: rare and refined Comment: a purified and refined beauty; this is controlled technique, and takes a skilled, yet patient ear to understand how rare this sound is.
Customer Rating:      Summary: pure harmony Comment: An intimate, sometimes haunting, always soothing compilation of melodious tracks by two masters. The focus is introspective yet sophisticated; it is a subtle, lyrical synthesis of dreamy acoustic guitar and bass.
Haden's bass lines twine and insinuate through the familiar Metheny guitar work; this is real mellow winding-down music, better than evening cocktails.
These tracks are only vaguely jazz-like; really, this music is genre transcending. Great stuff as background music to read or write by. If only more of reality was this smooth . . .
Highly recommended.

Customer Rating:      Summary: perfect late night cd. Comment: reading & music go together like wine & cheese at my house. since most of my reading is done later in the evening, i am always looking for great music on the quieter side (the stooges, husker du, etc... will not do at midnight). this is one of my favorite late night recordings. I can't recommend it highly enough. Metheny's guitar & Haden's bass work up perfection on these melodies. Each track is a gem. Can't wait to give it yet another listen.
Customer Rating:      Summary: One of my most treasured records Comment: I often return to this recording. It's simply sublime. The interplay between the players is beyond words, and the last song "Spiritual" is just that. Gives me goose bumbs everytime I hear it. A great record for falling asleep to, or having a quiet evening with someone you love. I can't recommend it enough. I'm not a huge fan of Pat's 80's new agey sounding stuff, but "Beyond the Missouri Sky" is amazing. I've enjoyed several Charile Haden records as well. I can't believe that this record is buried as cd #38 on amazon when one types in Pat Metheny. To me it should be the first one up, even before his first three records.
