My favourite Pat Metheny Group album, featuring Latin influences and the band at the height of their maturity and prowess. The first album to be released on the Geffen rather than ECM label, and featuring an all digital recording. It's recorded at quite a low level and the high frequencies are not as scintillating as on their analog ECM albums, but features digital dynamics and kick.
