A must for Metheny and AMJ fans November 14, 2008

Even if you are not a Metheny fan. Which I am, owning nearly every release with Metheny playing. You have to own this Album. I like the others, have had the Polish release for many years and just can not stop listening to it.
They have to go on tour together now- surely!

Not much to add to my fellow friends comments above.... i have owned the previous Polish issue for some time now and it was great having that - let alone this one... the new tracks are like wise great.... I own most Pat's albums - (last count was 38) and this is simply that album which i like to hear whenever i need not to be alone and want to get some great voice around me... and believe me - Anna's voice is incredible throughout.... Also try all her 11 albums - they are not to be missed - i have them all and they are all worth the money.... You might have a problem to find them readily available anywhere but once you do you will not regret it!!!!! enjoy it all and stay well!

Beautiful music October 22, 2008

I bought the original Polish version a couple of years ago via an import specialist. I first heard of this album when Jazz FM DJ played a couple of tracks from it on his late show (When jazz FM actually played Jazz)
I am not much into vocal music but Jopek has an exceptional voice and is intimate with Metheny's vision of the music. Jopek and her band don't give straight forward playing of these metheny tunes but interpret and rework them often subtly but always with passion and dedication. These are high class musicians.
Metheny's contribution is without saying superb and he blends in with the band with ease as if they have been playing together over many years. Yet he still retains his unique presence and tone but not at the expense of everyone else, just as a seasoned jazz musician should do.
Jopek's vocals are emotive, lyrical and the band support her beautifully.
There are translations of the lyrics on this european/US edition so we actually know what she is singing. But to be honest she is so good and her voice so instrument like and communicative the meaning and emotion of the songs are conveyed as well as they possibly could be. The translation is not really that important.
There are 3 extra tracks on this latest edition which is a great welcome 2 of which are from live concerts Metheny and Jopek did several years ago. Some live material is up on you tube if you want to hear how good this music is. The three extra tracks are: 1. "Lulajze Jezuniu" (Polish Christmas Carol) 2. "Na Calej Polaci Snieg" (The Snow Falls All Over The Place) 3. "Szepty I Lzy" (Whispers And Tears).
I would recommend this to any Metheny fans or vocal/jazz vocal fans, but it crosses across all the boundaries so should appeal to just music lovers. I will be exploring more of AMJ's music because of this album.
For Metheny fans i would also recommend classical guitar interpretations of the music of Pat Metheny by Jason Vieaux. The album is called "images of Metheny" Metheny met the guitarist and was very impressed with the album. Vieaux manages to distil the essence of the music into shorter renditions of the originals.
Awesome CD September 25, 2008

I bought this CD three years ago and have played it none stop. I really enjoy Pat's music, but I also enjoy Anna Maria Jopek's vocals. This is a remarkable cd. I look forward to getting this release as it contains 3 extra tracks. Enjoy!!
