For people who never clicked with Metheny or have only heard his smoother side, check out his playing on Kenny Garrett's Pursuance record,it's fierce.

Having his name misspelled might not have helped his vote count.
I'm enthralled by about half the tracks on his debut, respect his outing with Ornette, and everything else I've heard completely escapes me. Especially when he plays that guitar synth sound that sound like my cat talking to the birds: "mew mew mew mew mew mew...mew mew mew mew mew".

More to the point, where's Terje Rypdal?!?

This is how I feel about a lot of his music. His sound ranges from tolerable to awful on most records for me, and sound/tone is everything to me. He smokes on that Trio 99/00 album though and sounds better than usual as well.

And the Gary Burton album 'Like Minds' with Chick Corea and Roy Haynes, he's great on that.

Also he did this crazy rob-orchestra thing:
