Just the Two of Us: Carbon Monoxide Poem
Only met Lyle once, in '83, but what a mensch. I coulda hung with the guy for a week, and he made you feel like he'd be into it. Also a murderous, cutthroat chess player.
Yes, Panufo, although he often rushed off at the end of gigs, I imagine he would be really good company, providing you were not too fawning. I spoke to him once after Shepherds Bush Empire gig - 'Imaginary Day' album. Asked him when a new solo album would be coming and he told me and a group of friends; 'It's in gestation - about 9 months ' with a wry smile. Panufo, thanks for the word 'mensch' which is now going to become part of my vocabulary !
One and Only Lyle ❤
Très grand pianiste… vraiment, un autre bill Evans
His gift was an extension of Bill Evans
Beguiling talent indeed ! And a masterful approach to the spread across the universe of human sonic/musical extensions.
Thank you Marra48. Such a beautiful video. Well written, well spoken. Too many of my favorites have passed: Ferguson, Jarreau, Shorter, Corea, Mays, and now Sanborn. My heart breaks every time we lose a master artisan. Thank God for the music they've left us.
Yes, same here - for me particularly Shorter and Corea and Lyle
Listening to his work with Pat always brings a tear to my eye, always so tasteful, perfectly complementing the surrounding musical ambience. Always adding to it, but never overstated. I could go on but I'd rather just listen to him, and words don't do him justice.

What a beautiful description of a beautiful musician. Lyle you were a gift to us. Miss you man 💖

CUED UP for PARTICULAR SONGS
I last saw Lyle with PMG in ‘02. I had tickets to The Way Up in ‘05. I was in a low spot in my life and as the date approached, I passed the tickets on to my kid brother. It was many years before I finally got the memo that I’d already missed my last chance to see PMG. To then learn of Lyle’s passing some years afterward was jarring beyond description. San Lorenzo, As Falls Wichita, Close to Home, September 15th… are timeless, and I never tire of listening to these testaments to this musical giant. Thanks, Lyle.
Saved for special moments just like a profiterole well I cried here .
How lovely that you cried, Diane - his music has that depth of feeling for me too!
What a wonderful tribute to a musical genius. I saw him twice in person during the early 80s with the PMG. Hard to imagine he's gone.
Yes, he was great live, the way he used to do his double-thumb-roll-of-appreciation at the end of concerts - but his music is still with us !
Lyle was my classmate at North Texas spring 1975. One of the most brilliant and talented musicians I have ever known. His passing is a great loss to all who’ve been touched so deeply by his music and his soul. Rest in peace my dear old friend.
I bet he was also a really nice guy and great stimulating company.
@@marra4887 Intense, loved playing Foosball at a little bar right near campus.
❤😊❤❤
What a privilege able say, "I knew him when ..." Good for you Jer. and as your comment tells, his interests - & talents - much more than *just* music.
I miss Lyle because he was the most inspired musical creator and huge pianist
Yes, his arrangements were an integral part of PMG. His eponymous first album is quality throughout: with Slink, Message From The Heart and the spiritually uplifting Ascent
Thank you Lyle❤
One of the best things of youtube is to see the music that commenters like themselves. I listened to 'D. Maurice - No Tomorrow' Thanks! It's like a human algorithm. It had me racking my brain for what it reminded me of - 'Alfa Mist - "Door (featuring Jordan Rakei) Try it! Una delle cose migliori di UA-cam è vedere la musica che piace ai commentatori. Ho ascoltato 'D. Maurice - No domani' Grazie! È come un algoritmo umano. Mi ha fatto scervellarmi per quello che mi ricordava - 'Alfa Mist - "Door (featuring Jordan Rakei) Provalo!
Es muy cierto lo que se expresa al final del video: Lyle mejora la vida de quienes hemos tenido el privilegio de conocer, disfrutar y apreciar su música... Larga vida a Lyle.
Bravo, Depuis TRAVELS 83 , la magie de cet Ange m'accompagnait et elle me manque RIP
I always get chill bumps and teary when I hear Slink. Absolutely beautiful. All the years with PMG, beautiful and transcending also.
Bravo, well done!
William, Although we criticise the internet for many things-being able to share an emotion with like-minded people, especially the soulfulness of music, is one of the great pluses. Glad you appreciated my deep love for Lyle’s music - and wonderful to know there are many others, like you, who also share this passion !
I am so happy you posted this Marra. Lyle was to me what Music is to the World. He was my mentor, inspired me always with his playing and taught me how to look beyond the world's troubles to a better world all through his playing and presence. Never did agree with his long hair but I still and always will love Lyle Mays! Thank you Marra. Thank You Lyle!

James, Listen to this wonderful version of Lyle's Alaskan Suite by this young Polish orchestra - you can see how much they are really enjoying the exhilaration of 'Ascent'!
very beautiful eulogy, very touching...love you and your sublime music lyle ,,,
Paul, Great to share our love of Lyle's music
What an awesome homage to this incredible piece and an even more incredible composer. I'm sorry that I only just now discovered this video. I have used this Lyle Mays album as a marker for a critical time in my life (it was released around the time I relocated from Milwaukee Wisconsin to Brooklyn New York). I heard it at Tower Records way back when it came out in 1986. I didn't have the money to buy the album at that time. Several months went by and I bought the cassette tape by the end of 1986. I bought the vinyl sometime later. I was so turned on by this album I went and bought it for several friends! What's funny is that I knew so little about Pat Metheny. I didn't know Lyle Mays was an integral part of the Pat Metheny Group (how naive of me). Anyway, I hope you get this feedback, albeit 6 years later. Thank God this was one fine musician who didn't bury, but rather cultivated his talent into something that can't be easily mimicked or trivialized! Thanks!!!
Yes, James, lovely to get your feedback! EVERY track on the album is special - and you've spread the word to your friends. We're both great Lyle fans, so you might appreciate my Lyle Eulogy: ua-cam.com/video/xALBQkpi68M/v-deo.html
I view Pat and Lyle the same way I view Lennon and McCartney….two sides to coin. What a gift Lyle was.
My heart broke when I heard the news about Lyle's passing. It still hurts when I think about it. ❤❤
And many others like yourself, Vanessa - but Lyle's music lives on.
@@marra4887 Indeed it does, Marra.
Such a beautiful sentiment for a beautiful person. I miss him.
Craig, Great to share our love of Lyle's music.
Wow... a wonderful, fitting, and wholly engaging tribute that helps bring closure. Thank you. 🙏

@@marra4887 Indeed. BTW, he inspires much of my composing - and that of many others no doubt. I assume you've read the amazing material and stories on his website? Thank you again for creating this; it's very well done. Peace. 🕊

Lovely tribute, perfect it be done in poetic style, reflecting Lyle’s poetic expression. It was more than the rhythm, the harmony, the prodigious technique - it was his conception, his imagination (as you noted right off the bat), his ability to carry the listener to a rarified soulful dimension. And how he lifted and complimented Pat’s musical soul…miraculous!! 🙏🎵👏🏼

During the Pat Metheny Group’s early years, I gobbled up every album they put out. It wasn’t until I heard a Lyle Mays solo album that I realized what I loved most about the group’s sound was Lyle Mays! He was the perfect yin to Pat Metheny‘s yang. ☯️
perfect yin to Pat metheny's yang - I like it
Lovely tribute. Thank you.🙏 ❤

His lovely message of music is like that of an angel. He is so missed but I can listen to Close to Home endlessly and I don’t know what to say but Thank You.

Awesome! - He was the BEST! A genius of our time...
Beautiful. His work is so consistent and cohesive that it will stand the test of time. And this is only granted to the great ones.
Yes. A modern Chopin meets Debussy if you ask me.
It's a cliche, but there will never be another Lyle Mays.
Tu nous manques Lyle !
Outstandingly beautiful! Lyle is missed very much.
THANK YOU for this. I was looping "Long Life" in the car/at home a few days before I learned Lyle passed. I REALLY appreciate Nomad for adding beautiful photos he took (with locations) in his "Visions of a past life.." video. ua-cam.com/video/JlSb-VWE6z4/v-deo.html
Yes, some wonderfully evocative landscapes to go with Lyle's gem.
In the lineage of Bill Evens, and like Bill a one off.
Lyle was a great, best years of the P.MG.
Yes, I agree, Darren - PMG with Lyle. 'Lyle Mays' eponymous album is high quality throughout.
Didn’t know he had passed, saw them many times in Toronto, such a talent.
What can I say. I think it is possible he elevated the music with Pat to a whole other level. I think it was 2004-2005 I saw his last show with Pat at The Mondovi Center. I was and always will be an admirer of the Pat Metheny Group. He is gone but not forgotten. Thank you Lyle.
He certainly did elevate the music to a whole other level - his arrangements were special. try this Brazilian pianist's beautiful tribute ua-cam.com/video/aPwq5-irLLI/v-deo.html
@@marra4887That was amazing. Wow. Thanks. Damn I'm getting teary because The Pat Metheny Group's music was beyond special. If there could ever be a tribute group, or Pat getting this dude to play Lyle, I would go see it in a nano-second. I think I'm going to watch Minuano live. The tune "Chris" is also another genius of Lyle's from the Falcon and Snowman soundtrack. See what you started?
Lyle's playing for God's heavenly Angels now! Just waiting for someone to release a Song named after him! 2/10?

The world is now missing one of its great creations. It is not better off without him. In fact we are much lesser now. Some people are critical for our planet. Lyle was one of those. What a drag.
