A few years ago I was out and about driving in a mall parking lot and came to a stop sign. This woman had to stop too; she was driving a convertible with the top down. I heard her music, we were playing the exact same track, same PM CD same time. I stopped and told her to listen to my CD. I'll never forget that on a beautiful summer Pat Metheny day. We both got a laugh and talked about PM and tours and shows that we had been to. Sometimes friendships last just a few minutes over a common interest.
This is a question, sometimes enyoing great music, ask myself: How many people round the globe would've been listening the same song at the same time? But you fellow broke any statistics. Cheers
Yes.... well said !! When after a number of years listen to this music I realized lyle was the composer who created the deep feeling of power or uplifting joy or expansive raw univeral energy when in nature. Lyle made the music human where I could feel all thoughts feeling that I love the sun on my skin the water so vast and alive with possibilities. Pat and lyle created the magic or juju incredible improvisational music 🎶 that opened up the soul that has no boundaries ..... Their music is living within my body-mind thank you ...Pat and lyle
Upon seeing your profile picture my day just improved exponentially, what an angel you are, god bless, I can sense your as beautiful on the inside as you are on the outside, sending love and blessings.
Had the pleasure of watching Metheny and the fellas live once in late '02 at the Ohio Theater in Columbus, a restored baroque architecture venue where the acoustics are quite good. Holy crap- was on the edge of my seat almost the entire concert- even my buddy noticed...those memeories cannot be taken away. One of the best concerts in my life.
Live At The Great American Music Hall, San Francisco 1977. August 31, 1977... second set was free... remember seeing Lyle Mays in the lobby phone booth asking folks to come on down... saw the second set free as there weren't enough folks to fill the hall... can you imagine that now? These guys were amazing then. RIP Lyle. An amazing artist. Truly amazing keyboardist. Truly creative.
Gee! Pat Metheny just never ceases to please and delight, no matter how many times I have listened to the same Metheny songs over and over and over, they never cease to amaze me, I always find something new in the song. Excellent!
I have listened to countless artists and bands over the years but PMG and Steely Dan are the only ones I can listen over and over again till I’m death. Any other suggestions? I guess fourplay is pretty good too, but doesn’t come close to these two.
Thanks Pat and Lyle for such great compositions that transport us the way music does...your stuff resonates to the bone marrow. And, 40 years on, hearing all this sound brings back sweet memories. You're the best!
He rocked the Berlin Philharmonie sometime in the mid 80's, a huge venue. I was gobsmacked and have been hooked ever since. Musical magic. If I had to choose 1 artist to listen to for the rest of time it would be him, no doubt. He plays Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Thursday 10.5.23.
One of the overlooked aspects to Metheny's writing, as well as his longstanding collaborative work with Mays, is just how successful he's always been at creating music that sounds completely effortless, despite being considerably more detailed under the sheets.
I think that comes about because Metheny, I truly believe, LIVES the guitar. The guy probably practices and practices, nonstop. When he DOESN'T have an instrument on his neck, he probably feels truly uncomfortable. Practice, practice, practice... Do a show, then practice some more. Guy probably has practiced all night before, then does a show, practice, stay up all night, practice...
I remember Pat Metheny Unity Group played this track a couple of years ago in London during the Kin (←→) tour and i'll never forget hearing those opening bars made the entire audience cheer really loud, it had been a really long time since i had seen this song get played live and it was really nice to hear it again. I consider 'Have You Heard' one of PMG's greatest pieces ever.
Amazing. I don't remember what year this was from, but I do remember that the first time I heard this was in my mid-teens and I was tired of all the modern pop crap so I switched to a station playing "smooth jazz" and heard Pat Metheny Group for my first time. Just like when I was a teen, I find myself becoming "mindless", aware of nothing but the experience of the happiness that the music stirs within me.
This along with other Metheny tracks always conjures images of travelling across beautiful lakes, spectacular mountain ranges and vast great plains of America..... Stunning
the sound track of my travels all over the planet Pat and Lyle have been there made nature more rich color and movement and if I am waiting for long periods pat and lyle are there thank you
When this astounding album came out, I listened to it all the way through when I got home from work for a year at least. NOTHING makes the world go away like Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays. nothing.
Hi Pat Letter From Home is a beauty that only a beautiful Sunday morning has, I would like to congratulate you of this beautiful work is, and how much makes us happy. Sometimes I put the CD in the car and I get to listen 2, 3 months later, that the light always conspire in your favor hug. Oi Pat Letter From Home é de uma beleza que só uma linda manhã de domingo tem, gostaria de parabenizalo desse lindo trabalho é, e o quanto nos deixa feliz. As vezes coloco o CD no carro e chego a escutar 2 ,3 meses mais em fim, que a luz sempre conspire a seu favor abraço .
Totally!!! I'm terrified of flying in small planes, even though I've done it before. I'm even more terrified of flying in a military aircraft, and my Trigeminal Neuralgia would not allow me to do it. Still, if he were the pilot and I the passenger, especially if I had to be transported to the ER, and the PMG were the team, I'd have to trust, because I'd have the best! I know that sounds funny, but this music puts me in a place where I'd just find myself letting go of my inhibitions. It has a way of doing that, and I've been a huge fan since 1982. "Offramp" was just released, and I already had heard "American Garage" and "Bright Sized Life". I was hooked, especially when I heard "Amelia" with Joni Mitchell and him on "Miles of Aisles."
This song has to have one of the top lead solos of all time. I mean it just fits like a rolling stream in it's bed.........My Pat Metheny CD's rule my life, not the RCC.
Paul Wertico...thank you and your Amazing Hands, and of course yours Paiste ...more partucular ...and expensive cymbals in the world...but i play Sabian
Pat at his notiest and pickiest. The whole album is full of technique-heavy solos that flow fast and breezy like this, one of Pat’s many styles and one we didn’t hear quite as much beyond this record. I think if it as Pat’s answer to the guitar shredder movement of the day. Fun (for him) for a while at least.

My uncle and I used to listen to this for hours while we were painting and making art. I will forever remember those moments. Rest in peace Rudy.
Those are the moments that make a life. Never be sad. Be grateful. Cheers!!
RIP Rudy 🙏❤
beautiful. thanks for sharing that
Lyle Mays's piano playing was nothing short of genius. Happy I had the chance to experience it.
Me too. Was lucky enough to see the PMG 3 times.
Yes.... well said !! When after a number of years listen to this music I realized lyle was the composer who created the deep feeling of power or uplifting joy or expansive raw univeral energy when in nature.

They have touched us in profound ways
Upon seeing your profile picture my day just improved exponentially, what an angel you are, god bless, I can sense your as beautiful on the inside as you are on the outside, sending love and blessings.
Me too, I think I've seen PMG half a dozen times. Geniuses all!!
Metheny's melodies are simple, beautiful, memorable, and complex all at the same time.
That's the key.
Music from Heaven.
Pat Metheny and Earth Wind & Fire are the bands I've seen more than any other!
Only Pat Metheny and group can do this with this sound..🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Had the pleasure of watching Metheny and the fellas live once in late '02 at the Ohio Theater in Columbus, a restored baroque architecture venue where the acoustics are quite good. Holy crap- was on the edge of my seat almost the entire concert- even my buddy noticed...those memeories cannot be taken away. One of the best concerts in my life.
You said it!
I got to see them at Red Rocks Ampitheater (or ampitheatre depending on how pretentious I am feeling - LOL). Phenominal.

Pat Metheny's music kicks much ass! I really got into him during the 80s! I love this track!!
Me too!!!!
As much as I’ve always loved Pat Metheny’s music, I think that Pedro Aznar is the star in all his tracks. I’m always amazed by his vocal prowess.
Yes same! I love the groove he offers to their songs! ❤
check out his recently live youtube streamings
Pitch perfect and beautiful intonation major player in the rare mix
i totally agree it is amazing
Thank you for stating this!
Eternal music. Without time.
Timeless
Gee! Pat Metheny just never ceases to please and delight, no matter how many times I have listened to the same Metheny songs over and over and over, they never cease to amaze me, I always find something new in the song. Excellent!
RIP Lyle Mays.
The technique and precision reminds me of Steely Dan. love pat metheny group! :D
I'm also a fan of Steely Dan. Maybe no coincidence :)
Love Steely Dan also. One of my favourites
@@Ali-lw1toc we all got good taste in that case !
I have listened to countless artists and bands over the years but PMG and Steely Dan are the only ones I can listen over and over again till I’m death. Any other suggestions? I guess fourplay is pretty good too, but doesn’t come close to these two.
Celestial, cerebral jazz at it's best.
This is what I imagine the music in heaven to sound like. The vocals are angelic
I love it's vibe.. very 80s and early 90s
Many years ago a close friend asked asked me: what does it felt like to run? I told her to listen to this track...PM is the sound track of my life.
Thanks Pat and Lyle for such great compositions that transport us the way music does...your stuff resonates to the bone marrow. And, 40 years on, hearing all this sound brings back sweet memories. You're the best!

I used to jam with Pat back in the day!
Thoes were the days as they say!
What a great song
Que bueno¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ es el album que me abrió las puertas a otra dimensión musical grande Pat Metheny
So Refreshing! I've loved this for a mighty long time and still...
don't know how I found pat Metheney but I do remember when. Best summer of my life. Helped transform me. Sometimes I listen just to remember that time
何万回きいてもカッコいい！
心にじわりと沁みます
Pedro kills on vocals. R.I.P. Lyle!
I felt every note of that guitar solo
How is it physically possible to play guitar like this? True wizardry.
So Nostalgic
Glad I got to see Pat Metheny live👍
This album is so masterful and this song especially.
I remember Pat Metheny Unity Group played this track a couple of years ago in London during the Kin (←→) tour and i'll never forget hearing those opening bars made the entire audience cheer really loud, it had been a really long time since i had seen this song get played live and it was really nice to hear it again. I consider 'Have You Heard' one of PMG's greatest pieces ever.
warhawkBeyond2040 I was at that gig. Couldn't believe they played it. Was one of those people cheering very loud indeed.
Without a doubt one of his best. The soloing is amazing! I love the Brazilian influence on both "Letter From Home" and "Still Life Talking"
We beat this up during the 90's and supported Metheny since the 80s.....
since the 70s for me...
“We beat this up..”
Not before Jaco beat you up first!
Lo mejor de Metheny: P.M. GROUP. Sin duda ninguna.
What a great track!!!
Amazing. I don't remember what year this was from, but I do remember that the first time I heard this was in my mid-teens and I was tired of all the modern pop crap so I switched to a station playing "smooth jazz" and heard Pat Metheny Group for my first time.

bought the jojo ending album for last train home,ended up fallin in love with this absolute masterpiece.
thanks dp,you improuved my musical taste
Perfect remedy for these times....timeless
Pat's guitar play and tone is so progressive and upbeat 😀
I purchased this CD in 1993.This is the Best tune.Pat Metheny group at it's Best.
This along with other Metheny tracks always conjures images of travelling across beautiful lakes, spectacular mountain ranges and vast great plains of America.....
Stunning
Interesting comment cuz that's exactly the feeling and image I get when I hear a lot of his music.
I played Metheny while driving all through Italy. It brings me back every time.
the sound track of my travels all over the planet Pat and Lyle have been there made nature more rich color and movement and if I am waiting for long periods pat and lyle are there thank you
@@donbobness Awesome
Yes!!
Picked this cd up used from the local music store in town for dirt cheap and it was totally worth it.
You got a steal That whole album is worth a listen. I remember I bought that album back in 89 for $6. That was the full price ofor the cassette tape.
Not usually a common thing... to find a used Metheny album.
Most who get a Metheny album keep everything he records.
Incredible music, i'm bound to this for ever since it came on earth, Thank you Mr Pat Metheny and Mr Lyle Mays.
RIP Lyle
Classic jam from Pat...thanks Julio.🎼🎵🎶
Album meraviglioso l'ho ascoltato tante di quelle volte fino a consumarlo
When your a mechanic and the jazz hit the brain. Man I'll build a whole car before the song over with
Thats the best cymbal work I've ever heard. This song proves the power of the cymbal, case closed.
Had the pleasure of seeing this band live performance at the Royal Albert Hall.....unforgettable...
I 💘 YOU PAT THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO THIS WONDERFUL ART FORM MANY THANKS.
Thanks pedro. Beautiful
OMG! Pat is doing work here!!! As always!!!!!!!
este es uno de los legados más bellos que me ha dejado mi padre, gracias
Magistral.
When this astounding album came out, I listened to it all the way through when I got home from work for a year at least. NOTHING makes the world go away like Pat Metheny & Lyle Mays. nothing.

orchestration personified to the max.off the chain
Love some Pat Metheny music!
This is a tune you could use against your fear of flying in an Airplane...
(Patrick. Switzerland) :)

Have given up trying to pick a favourite, can appreciate them all after a few bars.
this song gets me every time!
Yes it’s amazing!!! I miss the old pat Metheny... good times

Another great song, discovered it today!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this - pure Ecstasy!
I was young in Dakar in the early 90" when I listened for the first time this album
Awesome album...Had the pleasure of seeing him perform in Bolzano, Italy a few years ago....
This song has to have one of the top lead solos of all time. I mean it just fits like a rolling stream in it's bed.........My Pat Metheny CD's rule my life, not the RCC.
One Love Family. The Frankie Paradise Network. NYC
The best of PMG
Paul Wertico...thank you and your Amazing Hands, and of course yours Paiste ...more partucular ...and expensive cymbals in the world...but i play Sabian
More jazz please ❤🎉
PMG in Radio City Music Hall in the late 80's.
I was in heaven.
Immaculate perfection !!
Timeless brilliance !
Great music you just don't hear anymore. Jazz is forgotten.
Robert glasper? Joshua Redman? Christian Scott? Branford marsalis?
No we don't, at least on Tv or radio. That's why we've got RUclips!
Man, You absolutely nailed it! Perfect!
Mestre Pat Metheny e group.

Soundtrack of my life ❤
Que buen disco
Si...Otimo realmente...Un saludo desde Italia....Ciao
best record ever!
Dunno this piece, but I'm sure by the thousandth listen, I will !!
my personal favorite PM album out of about 35 that I have
I strive to possess the English language as well as these Cats make me happy without using words.
Relaxing
THIS IS BRUTALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
This trumpet track is smooth yo!
Underrated.
Ahhh.. the memories...
This album came out in 1989 every song is great
Du très bon, de la très belle musique !!! Que demander de mieux !!😉
Amazing!!!!Master
Once I heard Eric Johnson's compliment back then in the early '90's who is the best all around guitarist that I've heard, I liked Metheny.
beautiful
Simple. The best
Magnifique ❤❤❤
This is Epic: Pat is like a master painter here...
That's why he was awarded by the National Endowment for the Arts as Master Jazz Artist of 2018.
Thank you Brennan for stating my belief that pedro's vocal sold the first circle album and on.
