Like Minds is a wonderful CD with an 'all-star line-up': Gary Burton (vibraphone), Chick Corea (piano), Pat Metheny (guitar), Dave Holland (bass) and Roy Haynes (drums). This project started with an email from Pat Metheny; or possibly earlier, in 1973, at a Metheny, Corea and Burton concert at the University of Michigan. Burton wanted some of the best songs from Metheny and Corea and a new piece on
… this CD. For Metheny this became Elucidation and for Corea Futures. Burton wrote the title track. In addition, a song from the 60s by him was recorded: Country Roads. The only classic on Like Minds is George Gershwin's Soon. The interplay between these top musicians is special and these greats also give each other the space to excel. So not only big names, but also real top jazz.more
