I've always had a great appreciation for Pat Metheny. Thank you for putting this together!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for stopping by.
Wonderful revisiting of Pat Metheny's music. Those ECM years IMHO were the best with Lyle Mays. They certainly created magic!
Hear hear! Thanks for watching.
Back in Stockholm, arrived from KL yesterday....
Very interesting. Coming back to this music now again, still so good. A real musician, in so many different genres, always totally honest and of course tecnically brilliant, one of the very best guitar players being around.
The duo record with Charlie Haden, "Missouri sky," a real favourite of mine.
And yes "Last train home", very cathy melody, almost a hit song back then.
(And Chet B forever....)
Perfect description of PM's musicianship. Glad to hear "Beyond the Missouri Sky" is a favourite of yours too. Many thanks for stopping by and watching.
Very good presentation. A favorite album of mine and my wife is the background sound track that Pat played acoustic guitar for the movie “A Map Of The World” which came out in 1999. The sound track was produced by Pat and Steve Robby. The music is very soothing. We play it often when having dinner. My introduction to The Pat Metheny Group was the album “OFFRAMP”.
His music catalogue is expansive and I'm still trying to catch up. I didn't know about that soundtrack until you mentioned it. I'm going to check it out. Many thanks for stopping and watching.
It’s refreshing to know others are as passionate about music as I’ve always been.
Great to see you back, thanks!
Hey, thanks for that and stopping by. Have a great weekend!
I agree with you regarding "The Pat Metheny Group" album. The song "Jaco" is a masterpiece.
Glad you agree. Many thanks for stopping by.
Wow, just fantastic! I love your descriptions of the albums and I can tell that you know a lot about Pat Metheny. My Pat Metheny collection has grown a lot in 2023. My top two albums of his are “Off Ramp” and “Still Life (Talking)”, but other albums of his slide into the mix quite a bit. This month it’s been “As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls” and “Watercolors”. There’s still a few I want to get, but most of the vinyl I have found. I only played his latest “Dream Box” album once, because the vinyl has too much background noise. I cleaned it before playing it too. Maybe it’s just my copy? But there’s no other instruments, just guitar. The ECM pressings got me spoiled. They are perfection! Thank you for making this video!
Oh that's great to know your favourite albums. How odd with that noise issue on your Dream Box lp. I haven't had any issues with my copy. And yes, the ECM pressings were just brilliant weren't they? Thanks for watching!
Sueno Con Mexico and San Lorenzo ( off of the white album ) and Jaco.. off off the self titled white album from 1978..Called Pat Metheny Group are my most listened to Pat M songs !
That's great to know. I really love "Sueno Con Mexico". Nice to meet a kindred fan with that song. And yes, my favs are mainly from that PMG era too.
Metheny's musicianship is second to none. Can't think of any other musician winning 20 Grammy awards. You have a pretty awesome collection of albums and you are an obvious fan. The newer Metheny records look really interesting. Will check them out after watching your re-visit. I didn't know he had a new record out this year. You have such an eclectic taste in music.
Agree that PM is an absolute guitar /composer legend. "From This Place" and "Dream Box" are pretty chilled albums. Hope you enjoy listening to them. Thanks for watching.
I have never bought a Metheny album but I have has a lot of them sent to me. I guess people are trying to tell me something. I need to sit down someday and concentrate on the music and see and understand why he is so well loved. Great video and loved your passion for the artist
Wow. Would love for people to send me PM albums! haha. Yes there must be a message somewhere about that. I hope you will enjoy his music. Thanks for your kind comment and for stopping by.
What a great video! Such an amazing guitarist.
Glad you enjoyed it! And yes, Metheny is certainly a music/guitar genius. Thanks for watching.
Amazing video! Thank you very much for bringing some albums that I didn't know. I'm rediscovering his work based on your tips and I'm loving it. Tks!!!!
Great to hear! Hope you enjoy his other albums. Many thanks for stopping by.
I love your enthusiasm for music! I think we all have a favourite artist whose back catalogue needs a revisit! Great video
Couldn't agree more about revisiting our favourite artists. Glad you enjoyed the video. Many thanks for stopping by.
I had never heard of Pat Matheny. I'm going to go check out this music 😊👍
Hope you will enjoy PM's music. There is just so much music out there in general...hard to keep up isn't it? Many thanks for watching.
@@retromusings I've enjoyed what I've heard so far of PM's music from your recommendations. As you say there is so much great music. It's always great to discover new music. Thank you 👍
Must be fantastic to re-discover the Pat Metheny Group's music. My favourite albums are "Travels", "First Circle and "Watercolors". Keyboardist Lyle Mays was instrumental in the PMG's success.
It was definitely a new journey seeing it with different eyes! "Travels" is another amazing album too. Just too many PMG records out there.Couldn't agree more about Mays' role in PMG's success. Thanks for stopping by.
Wow...No Letter from Home or Imaginary day? Those two are in my top 5 Matheny albums
His music catalogue is so wonderful and massive. It was very hard to whittle things down for the video. As the title of the video indicates, these are my personal favourites so it's pretty subjective. Many thanks for stopping by and watching.
Such a fantastic video. So cool to see someone in the vinyl community giving Pat Metheny ( and Lyle Mays ) some well-deserved attention with so much enthusiasm. I have a few of the PMG albums mainly covering their time with ECM. I think those were really the golden years for Metheny and Mays. I have Beyond the Missouri Sky, One Quiet Night, Speaking of Now, the ECM Selected Recordings and First Circle all on cd and listen to them a lot.
Wow. Love your PM cd albums! "One Quiet Night" is really brilliant. PM's acoustic re-working of "Last Train Home" is simply wonderful. I have a stack of PM cds and just didn't have time to cover them all. PM's music catalogue is just so vast. Where do does one start? Thanks for watching.
Had no idea Metheny was so young when he cranked out his first debut album. Listened to the your top 10 Metheny songs online and they are really fantastic. "First Circle" is amazing and that acoustic " Beyond the Missouri Sky" record with Haden is supremely chilled.
Yes. He was very young. He was pretty much a guitar prodigy and played with legendary Gary Burton and Burton virtually took him under his wings so to speak. Glad you enjoyed listening to my favourite songs. Thanks for stopping by.
For me - "Beyond the Missouri sky" and favourite track is "Two For The Road". Watching PM and CH perform it live is one of the most iconic musical experiences of my life.
Agree that "Two for the Road" is amazing. That whole "Beyond the Missouri Sky" cd is just so awesome. That really must have been some experience watching PM and CH perform together live. Thanks for sharing that!
@@retromusings I am not a religious person, but the closest thing in my life to church/synagog experiences are live performances, and that has never been truer than when I watched those two perform the album live. The entire audience was so silent and into the beauty of the music, it was just literally breath taking. I could just feel that I'm having one of the greatest moments of my life right there and then. Got chocked up multiple times. Not really a typical Pat album but it is my favourite and definitely on my "Island" list... Thank you for the video - I will definitely check some PM albums/tracks I haven't previously after watching it.
The White Album ( Self Titled ) American Garage and New Chautauqua and his debut are my favorites !😊What I call "The White Album" is actually the debut album for Pat Metheny "Group" from 1978.. I have it on cassette, Cd and bought it on release on vinyl in 1978. Bright Size Life is so good and to have Jaco Pastorius on his solo debut as well is terrific ! Really great video, and I like your editing.
Oh wow. I must re-listen to "American Garage" and "New Chautauqua" again over this weekend. Great to know those are your favs. And thanks for clarifying the "white album" is their official debut as the PMG. I feel pretty darn lucky to have a copy of "Bright Size Life". Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Fun to share our Pat Metheny albums, and it's funny.. "Bright Size Life" was the last that I acquired a few years back ! I love "The White Album" as I call it.. Only my favorite over the others by a smidge !@@retromusings
Great vid! I actually haven’t listened to Pat in a while. I’m gonna listen to him today. I remember loving that Missouri Sky album. He’s one of the all time greats. I also love Larry Coryell and John Abercrombie. My brother was friends with John. You did an awesome job with the edits! Such wonderful artwork and photos. Great story about your brother’s records. Cheers ✨✨✨✨✨🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍🏻
Thanks so much for stopping by and for your kind comment!
He’s such an incredible guitarist. Probably imitated the most nowadays by Jazz players. Not heard much of his more recent albums but definitely checking out the Charlie Haden one you mentioned. My favourite 2 tracks are probably “Bright Size Life” (which is now a Standard) & “Here To Stay” off “We Live Here”.
That's great to know your favs. Thanks for sharing that. I feel very lucky to have a copy of his debut album. Hope you will enjoy "Beyond the Missouri Sky". Thanks for watching.
I have never listened to a PM past the first ECM lp, "Witchata Falls...sounded like Muzak to me. Don't know why?
We lived in the same area, I would see him around town. Not going to say where for his privacy.
Didn't he go to North Texas State?
I 've never connected w/ his playing at all.
Even w/ Ornette and Charlie
I'm probably jealous.
I'm going give him a real listen.
The Joni Mitchell stuff w/ Jaco was real good. Alot of love coming thru in Jaco's playing for Joni.
There are some PM albums I found hard to connect with, especially the ones that are experimental. I think the ECM years were the golden era with Mays on board. Thanks for stopping by.
I think Metheny is one of the greatest jazz guitarists. Amazing story how you were introduced to his music. . My favorite albums are " One Quiet Night", "American Garage", "First Circle" and "Beyond the Missouri Sky". My go to songs are "Last Train Home," Más Allá , First Circle and Are You Going With Me"
Couldn't agree more. One Quiet Night is an amazing album. I have it on cd. And I adore the song Mas Alla too. Thanks for sharing your favs and for stopping by.
I don't remember the last time I played any Pat Methany must be more than a decade ago, thanks, good video!
Thanks for watching!
Pat without Lyle is like bread without butter,my fave album is the white one.
Well said! Couldn't agree more about Mays and Metheny. I think I need to listen to the PMG 1978 white album more often. Thanks for stopping by.
『First circle 』ですね！😊
ひょっとして『サンロレンツ』かな？😅
No talk about his masterpiece..Secret Story. Won a Grammy too.
Couldn't agree more about "Secret Story". One of 20 grammy-winning albums. PM's catalogue is just so so vast it's hard to cover it all in a 13-minute video. Thanks for stopping by.
I'm just getting back to listening to the music I own on vinyl. I bought "American Garage" when it came out way back in the day. (My brother is a guitarist and got me into Metheny.). Thank you for making this video. I enjoyed it greatly, and I'm looking forward to exploring his catalog further.
Glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for stopping by and watching.
Great artist. One of the most accomplished guitarists I’ve ever heard. Saw him live on his ’kin’ tour. Blown away. I have many of his albums including his more experimental efforts like Tap and Orchestrion. American Garage is magic to me. I appreciate your video on Pat. ☮️
( I highly recommend The sound of summer running, by Marc Johnson that features Pat Metheny and Bill Frisell)
Couldn't agree more. He is an absolute legendary guitarist. Seeing him live in concert must have been one incredible experience. A lot of people are fans of "American Garage". I am certainly going to listen to that album more often. Thanks for stopping by.
I’ve been revisiting Pat Metheny recently as well! I’ve featured some of his albums in my last few videos. There must be something in the air! His music is fantastic! Great video! Thanks for sharing your collection and thoughts!
Oh wow. That's so cool. I look forward to watching your videos on PM. and yes, there must be something "in the air". Glad you enjoyed the video and many thanks for stopping by.
Give a tank of gas, some open road, and Pat Matheny. 😊😊😊😊
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again.
hi retro, great video on pat metheny! i don't have much by him but he was a talented musician for sure. he had a lot more lps than i thought, but they sound like they are pretty decent from your descriptions. you have a beautiful collection of his lps, will have to start searching out some of his recordings. thanks for sharing this pat metheny information, i always learn something about an artist that i don't know much about because of your videos. take care and thanks again!
I really like his music with the ECM label and he has done some fantastic collaborations like the one with Charlie Haden. Hope you enjoy delving into his music. Thanks for watching!
Nice picks! Bright Size Life and Offramp are personal favorites. If you haven’t check out Pat Metheny Dave Holland Roy Haynes Question and Answer from 1990. Another favorite of mine.
Oh I don't know about Question and Answer. Thanks for flagging that up. Will check it out for sure. Thanks for stopping by.
gonna go listen to As Falls Wichita, So Falls Wichita Falls because of this vid, thanks!
Fantastic. Hope you will enjoy it as much as I do. Many thanks for stopping by and watching the video.
…this was great ! i have American Garage which i like and 80/81 which i’ve not yet listened to…had/have? Still Life on cassette, really liked the added vocals, i think that group appeared on Sat Night Live or Sunday Night…
That's great to know about "American Garage" and "80/81" which I don't have on vinyl or cd. I must have a listen to that one online and have another listen to "American Garage" this weekend. Had no idea they were on SNL etc. Thanks for stopping by!
I have been thinking about starting to explore his catalogue, so your video is timely .
I have heard parts of the Wichita and Off Ramp albums in the past , and generally liked what I heard .
Thank you for your recommendations , as they will help me focus on some albums to start listening to .
Cheers !
What wonderful timing! Hope you will enjoy my list of favourite albums and songs. PM's catalogue is so vast and just so many songs/albums that are simply exquisite, taking listeners on a soul-searching journey with unexpected twists and turns to a destination unknown. Thanks for stopping by.
@@retromusings My pleasure . Thank you again for all of the great recommendations . I look forward to the journey !
As Wichita Fall, so fall Wichita. 😂
Glad you see the humour with that tongue-twisting album title!
『Letter from home 』が入っていないのが驚き‼︎
あとは、パット・メセニーのソロ第２段作品。
それから1990年以降の一連のCD作品群です。
彼女は紹介しきれなかったので、割愛したのかな？
I have " Letter from Home " on cd and a lot of his works and collaborations in the 1990s to 2000s on cd too. His music catalogue is massive and impossible to cover in a short UA-cam video. My retrospective reflects my personal views and favourites. Your passion for Metheny's music is very admirable. Many thanks for watching.
You've done it again; nice info on "Bright Size Life." I have two Pat Metheny CDs: "Still Life Talking" and "Letter from Home." I used to play the former a lot; for a while it was one of the CDs I used when evaluating stereo equipment for purchase. Your enthusiasm and excitement is fun to see, which is one reason I enjoy your videos, and in fact, yours is also one of the few channels I have the notification bell turned on for. And if you play "Offramp" a lot, two copies makes sense to me. As for live performances, I have a DVD of a live PM concert, "We Live Here: Live in Japan," and I saw him live back in the 90s with Herbie Hancock, Jack Dejohnette and Dave Holland in NYC at the Beacon Theater; killer concert. If you get a chance to see him, take it!
Oh my goodness. What an incredible experience seeing PM perform live with those fellow jazz legends in NYC! It certainly sounds like a killer memorable event. Not sure if I will ever have the opportunity to see him live in concert but it's all good. I derive great pleasure watching his past concerts on UA-cam. Thanks for stopping by.
@@retromusings There's a DVD of the same group performing, but it's from a different show, the 1990 Mellon Jazz Festival. Perhaps you'll run across it.
