All of the music recordings on this site are recordings of independent origin (ROIOs) Music that has not been officially released. If you are an artist or a legal representative of an artist and you do not want your ROIO shared on my site for free among your fans (and creating new fans), just tell me in the comment area and I will remove them. By the way these recordings exist. They won't go away. All of them can be found at various places on line. Sharing just keeps the fans that support the artists from having to get ripped off by purchasing them on auction sites, and it also introduces music to people who would never have known the artist, creating a stronger fan base.

Pat Metheny Group, Hempstead, NY, 11-17-1979 (Pre-FM)


This is a really great recording of the original Pat Metheny Group.  This was recorded just after the bands second album American Garage was released.  American Garage reached number one on the jazz album charts.  While the American Garage album itself was not technically recorded very well the compositions were good and the album was for many a great introduction to the transcendent sound of this band.
