Meldau/Metheny: Thoughts?

I've been a Metheny fan for years. I've listened to several Meldau CDs but, although it was obvious that he is an accomplished pianist and composer, for some inexplicable reason I found it difficult to connect to his music. So I hesitated to purchase this CD. Well, IMO, it is a fantastic listen. With each musician complimenting the other it sounds like they have been playing together for many years. I would have to enthusiastically nominate this CD as one of the best jazz releases of 2006.

The collaboration of these 2 is excellent. I bought it as soon as it was released & still listen to it frequently. T bone, I too wish there were more music posts but maybe most folks listen to gear & not new music.

btw, also listening alot to Madeleine Peyroux, Half the Perfect World, a nice jazz vocal album of mostly covers.
