I would think there would be a large intersection between the audience for Steely Dan and Pat Metheny: smart, inventive, genre-busting music with strong melodic/harmonic content. >I always feel >like I'm on a fast moving train or in a fast paced car whenever I hear >his music And yet there are his many achingly beautiful slow ballads, like "Always and Forever" from his Secret Story album. Talk about strong melodic/harmonic content! Not to mention emotion as deep as an ocean. -Fred
