Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories)

1

Beyond the Missouri Sky (Short Stories) is a jazz album by the bassist Charlie Haden and the guitarist Pat Metheny. It won the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance.

Composition

"Tears of Rain" is an original composition for this project by Metheny, recorded with his sitar-guitar. In the CD booklet, Haden asserts (incorrectly) that Johnny Mandel's "The Moon Song" had never been recorded before.

Reception

The Penguin Guide to Jazz selected the album as part of its suggested Core Collection. AllMusic called it "a fine record when the material is happening, but a bit of a chore when it is not".
