UncleRaveyDavey got me thinking about the 80’s – and why I hate it so much.
But then I remembered that it wasn’t all that bad, with this album being one of the reasons – more to come I think, especially when URD starts the discussion going by emailing me why he loves the ’80’s (come on Ravey!).

I was told once by a so called music-expert that Pat Methany made music for lifts – mmm.
OK there are two ways to listen to this guy – either you put it on to relax to and just chill out with friends and vino and you have this as soothing background music or you put on a pair of good quality headphones and listen, really listen to the music. Its the second approach that provides the most pleasure – try it and let me know what you think.
I do know that if I was in a lift and this guy was playing I’d be going up and down all day.
Hope you enjoy the samples
