I have We Live Here and love it. In the field of jazz fusion I love this guy Norm Stockton.

That was his tribute to 'garage rock' done Pat Metheny style.

The first 3 Pat Metheny Group albums are all gold. Offramp is gorgeous and my favorite of his late 70s/early 80s work, so far.

My top 5:

The Road To You
Offramp
Bright Size Life
Pat Metheny Group
The Way Up

I like American Garage, probably would be in my top 10. We Live Here is do listen to occasionally, because it's smooth and I can laugh at it. I am missing a lot of Pat Metheny albums, but I have a lot of albums featuring him, like the Parallel Realities one, the trio album with Dave Holland and Roy Haynes, Michael Brecker's "Pilgramage", and Pat's trio albums, among others.

The most melodious of the creative modern jazz guys. Very diverse as well. Top albums:


1. The Way Up

2. PMG

3. Still Life (Talking)

4. Bright Size Life

5. Speaking of Now


"Song X" with Ornette Coleman is awesome too.
