CD Reviews5 stars for the music. Robert W | 12/08/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "I'm writing this review specifically for the remastered versions of Still Life Talking, Letter From Home, and Secret Story. Chances are you probably already own these and are wondering about the new versions. If these are some of your favorite albums, as they are mine, then you can't go wrong. Of the 3, SLT and LFH show the biggest improvements. They both have a much wider soundstage and improved depth with a much cleaner high end as well as powerful bass and clarity. I have listened side by side with the originals and the difference is VERY noticeable. If you have a good system these are fine recordings. (No Ipods please.) However unless you are die hard Metheny fan, Secret Story is not that great an improvement. This was already a great recording, especially for 15 years ago, and side by side with the original it's hard to tell. In some areas slightly. Enough to warrant the cost of a new CD, well maybe. The extra bonus CD material is mediocre at best and even though I'm a huge fan I probably could have lived without it. It's just OK. Nothing stellar here. Bottom line: SLT and LFH? Yes, definitely an improvement. Get them. SS....well, maybe if you're a huge fan. (Or if you've never heard this album in the first place. Some of the best music ever made. Period.)" MPG gumbo soup Hans W. Amador | N. CA | 03/22/2009 (5 out of 5 stars) "What a great album from the PMG. It's like a Gumbo soup with so many flavors and textures added. From soulful riffs to uplifting vocals just about every song is a 10. If you love the PMG group you'll love this album. It is more of a main stream smooth jazz album from Pat Metheny than say the Song X album he did with Ornette Coleman."
