Last Train Home is an instrumental jazz fusion piece by Pat Metheny Group - released in 1987 on the album Still Life (Talking). The tune was reportedly written quickly as a single complete phrase - with the bridge added later. It is regarded as one of the hardest tunes in the group's repertoire to improvise on - demanding solos that match the melody's level of detail. The track showcases the Pat Metheny Group's expansive, intricate sound of the late 1980s and sits in the jazz fusion - contemporary jazz genre.
