Digital Booklet
- Billboard Jazz Albums - #1 (1980) "With American Garage, the Pat Metheny Group solidified its signature sound. This album, the group’s second, took the Number 1 spot on the 1980 Billboard Jazz chart and spawned a legion of followers. Its virtuosic blend of jazz and roots rock evokes the heartland like no other and has withstood its own commercial success relatively unscathed." - ECM: Between Sound and Space American Garage is the second album by the Pat Metheny Group, released in 1979 on ECM Records. The album represented the most collaborative writing session between Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays up to that point in the band's history. American Garage marked Mays' first use of the Oberheim synthesizer, which became an integral part of the Group's sound.

What is High-Resolution Audio?

High-resolution audio offers the highest-fidelity available, far surpassing the sound quality of traditional CDs. When you listen to music on a CD or tracks purchased via consumer services such as iTunes, you are hearing a low-resolution version of what was actually recorded and mastered in the studio. ProStudioMasters offers the original studio masters — exactly as the artist, producers and sound engineers mastered them — for download, directly to you.

What do I need for playback?

You may need additional software / hardware to take full advantage of the higher 24-bit high-res audio formats, but any music lover that has heard 16-bit vs 24-bit will tell you it's worth it!
