Absolut richtig.

C'est le poete de la musique

Hear hear

63 here. I remember being introduced to the Pat Metheny Group back in the late 70s by a friend. As we toked the bong, I remember thinking “wow! This guitarist is amazing!” But then, my attention quickly was stolen by the keyboardist. It was quite the struggle trying to focus on both of them while being distracted by the insane rhythm work. All were so haunting & compelling I was nearly pulled apart in all directions. I was hooked forever! Lyle & Pat will never die.

Some of them don't walk the earth anymore

@@obhuicoksetyaetse1 No one lives forever. Lyle Mays is one of many that will be deeply missed. But, there's a new generation of virtuoso talent coming up, inspired by those that came before.

Stig Madsen isn’t this version just awe inspiring!

This phenomenal performance had the same effect on me, Stig. Just tugs at the heartstrings. Now, every time the sun comes out, it's like Lyle's playing up there.

I confirm every word you wrote ! His playing touches deeply.......

He was, indeed, "close to home" here... now he is home, and I'd bet the version upstairs will be even better! Yet another thing to look forward to eventually! :)

Sure ,there are keybords in Heaven and the kind of keybords that Mr Mays ( God bless his soul) will play forever nonstop without anyone getting bored or irritated, l hope we can meet him there .

Mee too!!!

I agree

Can't find the interview again, but Pat said Lyle could fill in the places he couldn't get with the guitar.

Not wanting to rag om Pat, because his music has been some of the most influencal music in my life, but after Lyle stopped playing with him, it kinda descended, from Orchestrion and forward. Most likely Pat feels this too. He was really lucky to have Lyle. Lyle's contribution to PMG was the glue for the soul.

I was there too! Annual trip to the jazz festival to see Metheny. Great memories

I agree. Funny thing is maybe that feeling was why they changed the title. It was originally called "Mars." :-)

Gave me an out of body experience and it was beautiful

You are a very good listener :)

Ogni volta che sento gli accordi combinati di Lyle & Pat torno indietro nel tempo..profumi di case montane i silenzi nelle vie.

Home is where there's always soup on the stove, and someone who loves you ....

me too....

so well put

Thank you Maria! And you're right about the Bill Evans school. Lyle Mays is taking it in the best direction it can go. All of the most evolved artists (including Bach) started with a language that preceded them and penetrated it deeply enough, and injected it enough with their own sensibility, that it continues grow.

Yes, I'm at about 5:40 as I read your comment, and he's there!

You got it! His music restores my faith in the human race.

Well stated my friend 😀

...and great person

I use to think that the San Lorenzo solo in Travels was the best .... until I heard this one. I feel that there are some similarities, but this is just amazing. RIP Lyle.

Hi Patrick Johnson, thanks to you I have now discovered this album. I've obviously been a long term fan of Pat Metheny (and First Light!), but had not previously come across this one. I can't find a CD copy for any reasonable cost, so for now I've bought the lower quality MP3 version from Amazon and have been listening (very nice). You also seem to have got me into EST - I just bought two of their CDs today! I think at the moment though that I prefer your version of 'Elevation of Love'. Happy New Year to you and yours - pass it on to the 'old man'!

It's so good! Can't believe you hadn't heard it before Conrad. You won't be able to stop now mate!

yes me too. i listened to lyle and pat from 1985 till 1990 almost every day, still have most albums, rediscovering them now! bill frisell is also one of those giants!

Definitely dude. The Lyle Mays album was such a massive influence on me when I was younger (And still now really!) Bill Frisell's playing on it is so unique (As his playing is on everything!) Just takes you to another world

You are very lucky. I saw Pat twice but never with Lyle😢

Was. RIP.

@@UKISOCIETY Is.

I do believe in God and I very strongly believe Lyle was given a Godly talent.

'a time of innocence and being safe and at peace...' if only today's world could be like that - will it ever be? One day perhaps - if enough of us want it to be.

40 years ! Remember buying the white album after a mate leant me a copy; the rest is history; time flies.

The real magic is that both Pat and Lyle play lyrically/melodically and from the soul. It's a big WOW every time I have seen or heard them over the years.

+Vicki Dorsey I saw him numerous times in Boston! Would drive past his home on Huron Ave (?) in Cambridge hoping to get a glimpse. What a talented duo....
