Description by OLDIES.com:
In 2007, composer, arranger and performer Richard Niles wrote, produced and hosted a three-part radio series for the BBC titled Pat Metheny--Bright Size Life. The in-depth discussions Niles held with Metheny for the series covered all aspects of the renowned musician who has revolutionized guitar and jazz--from Metheny's first realization of his affinity for music to his wisdom accrued from years of dedicated musicianship--at practice, in the studio and on the road around the world. For the first time in print, here are those fascinating interviews along with many others Niles has held with Metheny over time. The book includes rare photos, music examples, a full discography and insightful contributions form Lyle Mays, Gary Burton, Jack DeJohnette, John Patitucci, Mike Metheny and the late Michael Brecker.
