I came across a version of Giant Steps by Pat Metheny that they play in a rather slow tempo. I don't really care for his version, but was intrigued by the concept. Are you aware of any other recordings of a slower version of this song?

Who is the drummer on this?? (Is it Elvin?)
Or was a cement mixer nearby?
Thanks,
Sorry Don, I'm on the road and totally forgot to reply. Answer is I'm not sure who it is but it's not Elvin, I believe it's a Providence rhythm section

I was tempted to post this, but after the aural gag responses I got on a private mailing list...
There is a slow ballad /ragtime version that Benny green and ray brown play on the some of my friends are piano player album I think..
But they go into a faster time for solos if I remember correctly..
I can't remember it to well but look up Benny green and Ray Brown giant steps..
