"This is terrific. Officially it's a mixtape but the way he's put it together and how it flows suggests there was much more thought behind it than just throwing disparate tracks together.

"If this was just a regular album I wouldn't give it a particularly good rating, but as a parody of all the tired cliches in 70s and 80s rock music it works brilliantly (especially with how hilariously stupid some of the lyrics are) You'd need to watch the film first though before listening to thi..."  [+]  Reply

"The very unmistakable sound of Pat Metheny projects a feeling of warmth and happiness through a mixture of different musical styles including soft rock and free form jazz encompassing Latin American influences. A beautifully recorded and produced album, when I have the volume up on this the band ..."  [+]  Reply

"This album, as well as their self titled, are incredibly underrated in my opinion. I'm seriously in love with their sound. Just a shame about the fact that the single, "New Song" is such a pile of meh."  Reply
