Expecting more of the same, I bought Metheny's "80/81", but it is mostly traditional jazz, and "Pat Metheny Group", which is not quite as good a "Wichita". 1. What kind of music is "Wichita"? Does it have a generic name, besides just being "a kind of jazz"? 2. Are there other Metheny albums like "Wichita"? 3. Can you folks suggest other musicians who play this sort of stuff?
