This is a live recording of Pat Metheny’s latest unit (as of June 2026), "SIDE-EYE III+." The source material is an audience recording captured during their performance at an international jazz festival in La Spezia, Italy. To be frank, the original sound quality was not ideal; while remastering has brought it to a level suitable for listening, certain issues—such as heavy compression present in the original source—could not be fully corrected. Consequently, it is conservatively graded as "VERY-GOOD." That said, seasoned collectors of Pat Metheny’s music might well consider it worthy of an "EXCELLENT" rating.
