Magic!!! Miss Lyle

Love this album. Used to own it when it first came out. My daughter may still have it. Makes my mind soar.

without pat metheny the world would be a mistake!

Getting ready for short trip, stopped in store to pick up a cassette to listen to enroute. another fellow browsing, asked him if he suggested any jazz albums? He just handed me this album, and nodded. Driving the Parks highway to Denali Park, fall yellow leaves, pale powder blue Alaska Range in distance, music on, emerged through this portal into Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays otherworld. A magic and deep album, I revisit often, and 35 years later, return to that day like a movie.

- still happening in 2024.

Opening tune at the Loft. Played by David Mancuso.

I love this album I remember driving on the freeway with my girlfriend on the 14 fwy late at night playing this song it blew us both away we were in heaven driving it seems like it was taking us through the mountains through the freeway this beautiful you should make another updated version

This was the first Part Metheny Group album I ever heard as a student in n the 80's and I was hooked and continue to very much enjoy his music today.

Обожаю этот фильм!

良い感じです！

Seeing this live, in Denver… after repeated vinyl listenings: The studio version sounded live. The live performance, seemed in-studio!

Nunca me canso de escucharlo.

@H.T.C. Procol Harum is always great. The photos you chose do nothing to enhance the majesty of the music. You want subscribers, to this uncreative whatever? Go stick it!!! There are other sites that post Procol Harum! Really, your photos are an insult to the music and basically a joke.

Why the crappy photo?

PONEME LA LISTA DE TEMAS

There’s a B side to this. (Sept 15)

I listened to this Every Day for at lest 5 months after it was released, and it's funny how musical taste change over the years. This music now sounds very "dated", and meandering....actually reminding me a bit of "Ommadawn" by Mike Oldfield - kinda "old-school" Proggy! And as much as I loved the late Lyle May's piano work, his Oberheim Synth textures were still rooted in the British Prog sounds of Rick Wakeman, and Keith Emerson. Oh...and the album cover? - probably one of the Worst in the entire ECM catalogue! - looks like it was done by someone in a Jr. High-school Graphics class. And what's this recitation of numbers in the murky middle section...reminding me of Glass's "Einstein on the Beach", and some of David Sylvian's ambient work. So now, at 66 years of age, I actually find myself listening more to Godspeed! You Black Emperor, and Michael Gira Swans.

THE GREATEST ALBUM EVER RECORDED

An amazing album.

🙏❤️🌎🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵 Amazing artistry

So I put a theme together of U.S. cities, 2 from most states. My wife asked me about this one, " What does it mean?' I said, "Nothing! It's just the perfect song while you're driving cross country at night that keeps you awake and maybe takes you into another dimension!"

Due tre note...et voilà un brano immortale

Keith Reid was a mad genius; Gary Brooker and Robin Trower were musical geniuses. What they made together is phenomenal and, in some ways, unmatched.

Kick ass Robin Trower

Fifty five!

It always bothers me a bit that Naná Vasconcelos is hardly or rarely mentioned, even though his contribution to this album is exceptional.

This is such a great song. It’s a departure from their very often dark gothic songs… which I do love. In fact my favorite band!

始まりのざわめきと興奮がある。

Hi I announced to delete this Music Piece posting as I wanted to post a graphical Video to it. Now as they are so many Posting it would hurt do delete all positive the Comments about the Music so I let it stay and will post a New Playlist with the song but as I sometimes do a adapted Version of it. Hope You like it to and take a look at it.

As I drive across the plains towards Kansas City from Colorado I always hope to drive into and thru a thunderstorm at about midday... I put this on and I'm transported to my childhood home. Magical, each and every time.😎✌❤

pat metheny,lyle mays y nana vasconcelos no tienen padrote(como decimos en Vzla)este es el mejor disco de jazz contemporáneo,y es de 1981

I don't know how they did it, but I'm so with myself with this music. It takes my mind back to my childhood. I don't know why, it's a real masterpiece

Some friends of mine introduced me to The Pat Metheny Group sometime in the late '80's, starting with "Travels". I was immediately hooked! I have this album on vinyl, and I used to have it on CD, which is now forever lost. Sad to hear about Lyle Mays. May he forever rest in peace. One can only imagine the compositions he is composing now!

Disco maravilhoso ,transcendente ,ate hoje desperta a mesma viagem espiritual de libertação

oh, yeah

noice

Dear friends, Are the Yeats Waterfalls same as Wodogrzmoty Mickiewicza?. Wojciech

masterpiece

I bought this in 1984 when they released it on CD and loved it so much. It disappeared one day. I think it was an ex-boyfriend... 😠

j'ai le vinyl juste derrière moi, acheté en 82 après l'avoir écouté chez un ami ... mais je n'ai plus rien pour l'écouter. J'ai décidé d'offrir tous mes vinyls à ma fille et j'espère qu'elle aura le même plaisir.

A story being told by a song is UNIVERSAL. LIFE IS A GREAT GIFT SOURROUNDED BY GIFTS.

Особено любима :)

I do own a copy of this record and think it is the best ever colaboración the late Lye Mays did with Pat Metheny. As another person wrote: a true masterpiece. Hope one day, he will be invited to be a part of the yearly Panama Jazz Festival.

This is the ideal soundtrack for a train ride west! Godspeed Lyle❤

I listen to this emotional record once a month at least . It takes me back to all the places I have lived and dreamed of. Thank you Pat and still missed Lyle Mays

Cosmic trance.

well this was hard to find...

I miss Lyle Mays.

I bought this album many moons ago knowing nothing about Pat or Lyle. Sometimes God just looks out for ya. I would put this in the same class as my Chick Corea Leprachaun's Dream. If the house was on fire these are 2 of the ones I'd grab.
