Live(ish) From SpragueLand: Episode 16, The Fields, The Sky

For this episode we’re exploring some of my favorite Metheny compositions including “Have You Heard”, “In Her Family”, and “Are You Going With Me” plus we have Rebecca Jade in the loop singing beautiful lyrics (written by Randy Phillips) to some of Pat’s initially instrumental tunes. What a sound, what a story!

The band includes some of the best with Rebecca Jade on vocals, John Opferkuch on piano; Mack Leighton on bass; Duncan Moore on drums; and Peter Sprague on guitar. Plus a special guest appearance all the way from Denver —Grammy Award winner Dianne Reeves will sing a classic Metheny song that’s been her opening number on recent tours. The audience goes wild and understandably so, the blendo of Dianne’s vocals with Pat’s magic song reaches all of the right spots of the human condition.

Price of admission? Actually the concert is free but we will have a “virtual tip jar” complete with PayPal, Zelle and Venmo info for you to donate whatever you feel good about. Also good old snail mailing checks works too. You folks have been super generous with this and it makes us happy.
