Withholding Pattern is a solo album by English jazz musician John Surman recorded in December 1984 and released on ECM the following year.

Reception

AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars and its review by Ron Wynn states: "Saxophone workout from '85 by outstanding British player John Surman. While solo sax can be extremely tiring, Surman mixes enough elements of rock, free, blues, and hard bop to keep the songs varied. His aggressive style, especially on baritone, keeps the energy level high."[1]
