Lyle Mays "Alaskan Suite"


"Lyle Mays waited a long, long time before straying from the Pat Metheny Group to issue his first solo album (recorded 1985, released 1986 on Geffen Records) but when he did, on his own, Mays' synthesizer solos and textures are close in sound to what he was doing in the Metheny group. The 14-minute "Alaskan Suite" forms the centerpiece of the LP's side two"...
