There is something about blind musicians. Although they blend and share very well with other musicians, they have this need to rely on themselves. Listen from 4:20. He plays rhythm section, counter voice, solo, everything by himself. An incredible groove ! I tried myself to write and play music at night, no light, just sound and touch. After all, this is what music is 100% about. Easy to say I suppose for someone that sees when the light is on, and I'm so sorry that turning the light on does not change much for him. A brilliant person.
Thank you, James Taylor, for pearls like this! Thank you Raul, for performances like this. Love you both! "Go away then, damn you, Go on and do as you please, You ain't gonna see me gettin' down on my knees. I'm undecided, and your heart's been divided, You've been turning my world upside down.
I just discovered this guy! All I can say is wow! A touch of Maxwell, Donnie Hathaway and Al Jarrrau is some of his songs. I’ve been listening to him all day! I’m intrigued
I don’t even know where to begin! This was BEAUTIFUL on so many levels! I would love to have experienced this live! Pat Metheny... Raúl Midón.... PRICELESS💙💛
James called it his Folk Jazz song, this is kind of a funky jazz approach. It’s nice however I kinda wish it was more like Pat’s arrangement on the Brecker Release.
Beatiful! though very well Pat and sax could've been allowed more interplay room, a little too busy comping by the pianist, grabing all the answer spots, in my opinion. The mix could affect a bit, too
The sax solo is really, really, really amazing! It’s all about sensibility! ❤️

Yes, and a bit of George Benson in there also.
And a little Stevie Wonder
an excellent assessment
This took my breath away.
Pat smile at the end = admiration and knowingness. This song is a work of art
5:01 when Metheny look you like that you know you did a great job
Pats smile at the end says it all!

Is he the blind cat who played and sang Stevie's 'I just Called ' on Herbie Hancock's 'Possibilities"??? Great!
Effing amazing all the players
Warmest voice
Fabulous sax solo. As always Pat Metheny was wonderful. The vocalist could have great if only he would have ommitted the scaling.
Sensational!
James called it his Folk Jazz song, this is kind of a funky jazz approach. It’s nice however I kinda wish it was more like Pat’s arrangement on the Brecker Release.
Just wow! He'll be in Woodbridge, NJ on May 19, 2010. I'll be there!
just a big WOW
what an inspiration ^ ^
Great song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vielen Dank für diesen Upload!
Thanks for posting this
Wowwwww
Masters
here's way pat wrote "james": they have similar feelings
i'd like so much to hear them to play together
anyway this vocalist is all right
Hump Day Wednesday! Crack open your favorite beverage and enjoy the jam!
@sonolaziapina the singer is raul midon. hes a crazy guitar player and a badass vocalist too.
Who’s the saxophonist? Amazing! What’s his name?
he's just there for picture...:) it's he's friends night.
Places me in. Mind of. Donnie. Hathaway . . My. Man . God. Bless . Peace . And I no your not lonely at night .. 😎🤣
This was a tribute to Michael Brecker - respect!
Oh, geeesh...At least 10 people feel inclined to be lonely tonight. ;(
❤️
Dopo l'originale,la versione che preferisco
That's Marcus Strickland on tenor saxophone
humm !
the end of this performance is reflect on the face of the other guitarrist
👍
when u gg play with JT?..awesome!! such soothinh
great voice
Sweet💕💕💕
uau
😍
@sonolaziapina I see, he's Raul Midon
Damn that Metheny tone at 3:47.... pfffff any clue how he gets it? thanks!
who's the singer and the other members of the band with Metheny?
Anyone know who the sax player is?
I don't know sax player but know sex player
Go to the original and compare that to this (especially the vocal, and sax solo)...that's all I'm going to say😖
I thought Metheny doesn't like doing this kind of type?
Beatiful! though very well Pat and sax could've been allowed more interplay room, a little too busy comping by the pianist, grabing all the answer spots, in my opinion. The mix could affect a bit, too
Man, if you are jamming with Metheny, sharing a some crowded stage, let him play a little! It's a win-win. Lyle did.
lovely version...but please don't compare this to James
Seriously no need for Pat
😐. Hard to touch the Isley Brothers version. That is the standard.
DO yourself a favor...NEVER try cover James Taylor!
amazing
