Introduction- The Way Up LIVE
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2013
- This film was shot during the Asian leg of the 2004 tour in Seoul, Korea. It is a special documentation of the Pat Metheny Group featuring Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Steve Rodby, Antonio Sanchez, Cuong Vu, Gregoire Maret, and Nando Lauria.
Musicians: Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Steve Rodby, Antonio Sanchez, Cuong Vu, Gregoire Maret, and Nando Lauria.
Pat and Lyle have written the most beautiful music that earth has ever heard.
Can’t believe it was almost 20 yrs ago! It is so great an honor for me to have been a small part of the concert. I still remember its atmosphere and fever in the LG arts center in Seoul.
This is fitting. PMG saying goodbye with this opus to fans, with Lyles passing, their music showed us The Way Up. Rest peacefully Lyle.
I agree with you. I don’t know but it seems Lyle seemed to keep Metheny from going off the rails. Now with Lyle gone R.I.P. it seems Pat has taken some interesting endeavors
@@susanjohnson5446 Pat on his own projects since the 80’s has always been on interesting endeavors. PMG was it’s own thing and he respected that. Since he had Lyle to compose with. But that’s just my own assessment. Lol
literally... for me -- this is the ultimate modern instrumental music. in every way. improvisational level, composition, performance... this is as good as I can dream up.
doesnt get any better than this
Yes!!!!
There's none such that is any better.., this always hits me deep in my soul and therefore is simply therapeutic ❤❤❤
I love his recordings. But the live performances leave me speachless. Rest in Peace Lyle Mayes.
Superb fusion with such an elaborate orchestration. The subdivisions held by Lyle and percussion let Pat's melody flow dólce.
Wow, this is the tops, cream of the crops, etc. I'm ashamed I haven't had this in my life for longer. I've always said ELP is the best, especially as a live band(early days), but this, I can die now knowing I've seen the best musicianmanshp ever!!!!! So, this, Yes & ELP, are the best of the best. I got the dvd from netflix, I was frozen & zoned watching it. Thank you Pat Metheny and band, you're all superheroes in my book, I'm in awe of you all, you all deserve wonderful lives for your positive contribution to this earth.
& a big thanks to my Mom and my Uncle Jerry for playing me Pat Metheny as a kid, circa 1980's in Tampa, FL, I probably wouldn't know about this greatness, if it weren't for you both, loves yas!
WBMFTSNE, Travels and First Circle are, for me, pinnacles.
To have seen PMG Tour First Circle, and appreciate what ELP pulled off on their 73-74 Brain Salad Surgery tour really peaks the live music meter.
My man Antonio Sanchez!
Que recuerdos y que placer escuchar a Lyle Mays. Faltó tiempo para ser más valorado como un muy muy buen tecladista y pianista. Sonido personal, limpio y cálido 🎹
So many intricate sounds! Seeing it being performed is the best way to appreciate it.
The cool thing about jazz is that it has international appreciation.
Lmao!
Unlike pop music
Within the first 40 seconds my mind was expanding. You know the music is so talent-filled it makes you laugh!
Such a good point. And when you can’t wait to go back and revisit to try to get your head wrapped around what the hell is happening
This is simply the best blu ray concert ever put onto disc these are simply state of the art musicians it does not get any better than this,i just wish pat and lyle would get back together we miss them a lot.
Gives me goose bumps every time..Sometimes I tear up too..Don’t know why
The very first PMG album I bought - and all because I dreamt of the cover one night & was moved to just buy it. I must say it was a great purchase!
I just lined up the original album recording .... with this live recording in an audio editing program - the timing and executions are absolutely identical. Of course, some of the improv varies, but essentially, the band is so freaking awesome... that they performed this piece live exactly as they recorded it. Which is stunning. Essentially, a Pat Metheny Group album recording is as "live" as it can get. Especially when you compare it to or consider the amount of post production bullshit that most "artists" have to do to make an album nowadays.
(UPDATE: after listening to the combined tracks for another 15 minutes)
I mean, my God. This is incredible. It's perfectly in line. Geez oh man. These guys are unbelievable.
Oh, another thing: Steve Rodby's drum beat is the frickin whip.
The masterpiece. Absolutely!!!
Thanks so much for sharing all the music!!! You're a living legend! Lyle too!! I'm here in Indy, would like to see you! Hope you are well God loves you deeply Shalom 🎸🔊 🐕⛰️🏞️ 🏔️🎊 🎆🎉 ✨🎇 🎶🎉🎈🎹🎵
This band has added new members--trumpeter Cuong Vu and harmonica player Gregoire Maret. They also added another member, Nando Lauria.
I have the DVD with this whole concert. Amazing composition.
Saw this performed live in concert on this tour. An interesting part of this to that's not shown in this video is how often Pat's guitar tech is constantly carrying different guitars on and off the stage for Pat to play! It was actually a very interesting part of the show that you don't see here.
Wow even the damn harmonica player has some serious chops. Always the best with PM. Drumming here is crazy good too.
When I saw this show live, later in the set, they did Are You Going With Me, and Lyle and the harmonica player traded solos. It was really cool.
Very challenging composition with a memorable recurring theme.
I hope one day PMG is back together again. It can be so called "Reunion" or "Farewell" tour, doesn't matter. But these guys must share their vision of beauty using the language we love and understand - the language of music. They have mastered the art of composition and arrangement to perfection. If time comes and they perform that "reunion" tour, it will be the happiest day for many, myself included. We need you back, PMG!
This is perhaps the most complex piece of music I have ever heard after Frank Zappa’s Black Page. Kudos to the entire band and the composers.
I miss Lyle! Being an musician and a physicist I would love to have met hin! Rest in peace, Lyle!
wow, this is just AMAZING
Can't Believe it's already 10 year old. Still sounds as fresh as when it first started polarising the Metheny flock. Still an absolute Jazz-Nirvana for me, with everything else paling into insignificance. Sadly, for now it seems PMG is no more. Maybe they just couldn't continue with the knowledge they'd never surpass this masterpiece. Whatever the case, long live TWU!!!!
Brad Parker Yeah, polarizing, that was me too when the album came out. Played the CD for a while, didn't hate it, but I just didn't get it. Literally forgot about it.
Found my copy maybe 7 years ago, and honesty couldn't recall what this CD sounded like till I played it. Holy. Sh&t! I got it. Couldn't stop listening, especially, the Intro and Part One. Just inexplicable!
Strangely enough Michael, I "got" this very early. Not normal for me. I once tossed a prerecorded Yellowjackets cassette (remember those?) into a drawer in disgust. It did nothing for me. A few years later I happened to listen to it again, and it was the best thing I'd ever heard. I promptly became a die-hard YJ fan. It's almost like the subconscious chews on the material despite not being continuously exposed to it. Then again, guess it's probably got more to do with age and maturity.
Whatever the case, I'm glad you've got TWU now. My problem now is to find anything else of remotely similar quality...
holdsworth !! and yes close to the edge
He's from another planet.
Slide + eBow on a 12 string, lol, I adore this album
Absolute genius!!😀
Nothing will ever be even close to top this album
R.I.P. LYLE
synchro technic melody fluidity perfection

I stil have to watch this vid but'Im sure I will buy that DVD anyhow. Pat&Group has always been awesome for me
Pat is phenomenal !!! 🎸😘🎶
Pure excellence...........
Beautiful Song!
Stunning! Wonderful! So creative, clever - yet highly musical. It would be wonderful if a DVD were available - is there one?
Man, the chord at 3:44 just blows my mind!
Gracias por tan bella musica

Very cool!
Correction: *2005, not 2004. Album came out Jan. 2005. Tour followed.
聴き込めば聴き込む程スルメアルバムですよ♪ライヴもアルバム演奏を忠実に再現しています。
アルバム「The Way Up」PMG最後の結論的アルバム。05年作品。
3:27 that's one smooth move by Pat.
Grandios!!!

LINDO DEMAIS!
Wow!

Metheny è un grande talento.
Seeing him tomorrow at the beacon
Almost non human in scope!
Went to the concert.. it was ridiculous. I was just smh...
colossal na música instrumental
Magia.
tout simplement grandiose
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Qué impresionante debe haber sido poder tocar en la banda. Cada uno empujando al otro a niveles de concentración y precisión que generaban entre ellos un ambiente hyper excitante de musicalidad y creatividad. Difícil sostener ese ritmo mucho tiempo... quizás también exigió tanto, que costó mantener semejante nivel, o superarlo....
ok, ok...
Metheny è davvero un grande
Come to indonesia pliss
nice bass inlays
he chucks that e-bow :)
Where can I find this show?
Aaron Agnew there used to be a 20 minute segment but all that is left is the intro. It was my favorite live performance and i have longed to hear the other segments for a while now.
Get the Blu-ray. It's only 15 bucks on Amazon. It has a great DTS HD-MA 5.1 track of the show.
PMG at their best❤️
Ok this really destroyed me. No one had music in front of them. Wow.
is the classical guitar in standard tuning?
no sheet music!
I was here :D
This is music of the future, everything before (and I mean from all composers!) seems 'old hat'. Where do we go from here ?
Without Lyle, it will be very difficult go anywhere...
il faut une vie pour arriver a metheny......
Is this available on DVD?
Yes
+Great Prog Tracks netflix for sure
B R A V O

Electric 12 string slide jazz mmmmmmm

Metheny è un grande talento.
