Im currently going through depression, fucking sucks but this song is just...makes me ecstatic, gets me smiling and happy, hopeful....I cant describe it properly, but thanks. This performance has saved my life a few times, literally.
This song is like the most important in the world to me. It's electrifying and hopeful, I dare say one of the best compositions in musical history. I save it for important moments.
Keep pushing through for on the other side of depression awaits its polar opposite so use the depression as the fuel to get you there with an assist from the Pat Metheny Group
One of the Greatest Bands ever!!..... &...... Without doubt The Greatest Guitarist of my 70 years lifetime Live Long Pat Metheny ....ps R I P Lyle Mays , your contribution will be your legacy you will never be forgotten nor will your music !
I’m buddhist and i practice Soka Gakkai Buddhism. August and September have been though for me, and only with Faith, practice, Study and Pat Metheny I could be happy in the middle of the storm. Im eternally gratefull
What a testament to how great this band was that the live version is even better than the studio version. The song masterfully builds in intensity from the first note to the end of the song.
I took my boyfriend at the time to see Pat at the Pageant in St. Louis for his birthday. When he performed this song, everything seemed to be right with the world! I looked at my boyfriend, he was ecstatic and I was on cloud 9! I will never forget how this song made me feel! It continues to be one of my favorite songs!
I agree.Saw him by accident in Denver 1985 .Thats why Ive been to PMG concerts 5 more times over the years.There is no Jazz Fusion band any better!!! Its a total Experience!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is driving along the coastline at sunset, in a convertible, with the top down. With your significant other and your best friends. Wind in your hair, smiles, sunglasses.
You're so right. It has a traveling vibe to it. My parents used to play this on the long car rides to and from camping trips or visiting family upstate. I associate it with the rolling hills just south of the San Francisco Bay Area as you leave the central valley, going from the San Luis Resevoir to Casa de Fruta and Gilroy on State Route 152. It's a welcome relief from all that flat land -- and a bit of a thrilling drive.
This is what happens when an American studious virtuoso combines emotions and genres from all corners of the planet. The result is as always pure , unadulterated orgasmic music. RIP Lyle!
Sad because it’s over, glad because it happened. How fortunate are we to have lived and seen them in their time? The most fulfilling concerts I’ve ever seen.
When you feel really inspired and you get in the studio tryin to catch the vibe you have in mind. And then, after couple measure magic disapear !! This song feel so sponteanus, real definition or an artist !!!
Seeing Lyle Mays at the piano and keyboards. Im overwhelmed with a sense of satisfaction , and everything's ok just seeing him sitting there the master pianist that he is! Its had 2 have had a great impact on Pat everytime looking over at the piano and not seeing Lyle his friend, fellow musician, and composer missing ! His heart must ache as my heart aches 4 him. Years from now they'll still be talking about Pat Matheny Lyle May's and every musician that played with them, and they'll still be playing their music!
I love Pat Methany! His music is so tranquil, I just like to relax when I'm listening to his music! This li a jazz concert is so nice! I had a chance to see him live around 1995. Great concert I've ever seen! 👍
The Depth and Bredth of Pat and Lyle as a team, and amplified as a whole in the entirety of the Pat Metheny Group, is both a sublime and beautiful thing. This song exemplifies that with stark clarity! It is "As It Is" ...PERFECTION! Thanks for posting feedbackbro!
It gives me a feeling of winning. Accomplishment in life. I visualize myself already there and being who I want to be in life The track is 07:42 long on the album and it captures my heart first time playing it today. Plus its the opening song of the album. Played the whole album in the morning. Now I'm playing "As it is" on repeat I Am a Winner
Now THAT is how u play the drums for PMG. Though i love Danny. But my goodness. The best drummer for THIS band. Hands down. Just enhances the true soundscape of everything.
GLORIOUS TUNE!!! Pat's music can help save this often stupid world!!!! For me it's HEAVEN to imagine say driving on a beautiful summer day in a convertible - with the top down - your girlfriend (whom u are absolutely NUTS about) is holding your hand, it's your first day of a 2-week vacation, & u are driving say along the gorgeous Columbia River in Oregon when 5:10 (& following) of this number hits (on your fab new car sound system) & you better just try to bottle up the tears!! (For u ARE driving after all !!) To top it off, we are now headed towards a world with MORE wisdom among many average people! MUCH less vegging in front of our "glass-teats" & "idiot-boxes"! MUCH less fear & panic & drinking the "Kool-Aid" that the mass-media puts out daily!! MORE belief that we can even be headed for a GLORIOUS & FABULOUS future - as humanity - IF we work together on some ACTUAL solutions to our problems! GO PAT!! HAVE to THANK-YOU for your AMAZING & INSPIRING music!!!
The rhythmic grooves they and Lyle lay down here are so flawlessly solid...unique swing feel at 3:18 under the first solo just one example...all rhythm section players should study THIS video for how it’s done!
Saw them four times on this tour: Chicago, St. Louis, Columbia, MO, and Kansas City. I could have been to every show on this tour, just magical, inspiring, healing. It would be tremendous to get this lineup back to play this remarkable album again - sure miss Lyle.
Quando me perguntam quem é seu músico preferido , sem dúvida; Pat . A música dele transcende a alma. Não é lógica é altamente divina. Esse sabe usar sua arte com propósito. Eu tenho tantos adjetivos para dizer , mas..., não caberiam aqui. Fica por conta da imaginação e emoções. Valeu Patrick Metheny
His last few years he wasn't even in music anymore...just couldn't take the business end of it. Software development. Even a Supreme talent like he was reaches a point. He layed out every ounce of his immense creative juice that he had ...he left it on the field
R.I.P Lyle Mays. His talent and music will be missed
RIP Lyle Maze, met Pat n your fine compositions in the mid 80s.
He's still here, the music lives on🎶
This melody is so spiritual to me goosbump
Im currently going through depression, fucking sucks but this song is just...makes me ecstatic, gets me smiling and happy, hopeful....I cant describe it properly, but thanks. This performance has saved my life a few times, literally.

...beautiful witness....
Is it jazz? Is it rock? Is it fusion? who the F cares its PAT METHENY MUSIC!!!!!
@@adamthomas6803 You magnificent bastard!!! YES!!
Or is it MoR? That's my problem with Pat Metheny.
Facts!
it's clube da esquina moods
All it is is beautiful
Metheny and Mays are both great musicians in their own right, but together they create something truly special.
Yangshensensen is
Notice Richard Bona on acoustic guitar and the balafon
Metheny, post Mays, still creating MAGIC with arguably greater musicians.
Muzo5628 STEIN youve gotta be good to play with Pat and yes I love his new album “from this place”
like "Mike and Scottie"
Best Jazz band out there...period!!!!!!!
The Gospel of Pat Metheny. Incredible chord progressions. wow .
clube da esquina moods
this is the greatest piece of music ever recorded, bar nothing
No it isn't. A ridiculous comment.
@@kevinmanns7170 ok well your fav...?
I may be watching what Pat is doing, but always, I am listening to Lyle... RIP oh brillant one !
I'm 24 years i love this song thank you my farther for this
When you see him perform live it’s definitely a different experience!! My all time favorite artist!! HANDS DOWN!!
I agree.Saw him by accident in Denver 1985 .Thats why Ive been to PMG concerts 5 more times over the years.There is no Jazz Fusion band any better!!! Its a total Experience!!!!!!!!!!!
holy smokes from beyond!!! what treasure have i found !
One of my favorite songs of all time, hell yes!

Mays and Metheny - a musical match made in heaven. RIP Lyle 💕. Pat you make me cry on this one - you touch my soul on that end solo 🥰💕🙏
Truth.....

This piano sound was unique...the touch of Lyle...no other can do this
@@ferencferdinandweisz8248 Lyle was indeed unique and had the gift....
Hey man, with you on that👍🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾stay blessed and corona free.

So basically a millionaire to enjoy a song.

....word...and...truth...
Tremenda pieza de Jazz,metheny un Genio Musical.
Pat Metheny the best guitarist hands down.
a very special , unique if you will
no one has made music like them- so refreshing- its the summary of all music combined!
If we all lived a guaranteed 1000 years, this would be given the (at least) 2 billion likes that it easily deserves.
Unbelievable, life changing concerts. To know that this can never happen again is shattering.
Sad because it’s over, glad because it happened. How fortunate are we to have lived and seen them in their time? The most fulfilling concerts I’ve ever seen.
@@jjsc4396 Truth....
One of the Greatest Bands ever!....RIP Lyle Mays......the great .....
This is what I call music!
my goodness this is pure gold
When you feel really inspired and you get in the studio tryin to catch the vibe you have in mind. And then, after couple measure magic disapear !! This song feel so sponteanus, real definition or an artist !!!
Yup

I saw this tour in Santa Cruz 2002 what a fantastic show and Richard Bona was brilliant
I absolutely loved this song!
My musical evolutio started with this concert DVD. I was cca. 12 years old.
It's Steven Rodbury and Antonio Sanchez's world, we're just living in it. Good god, those 2 own this song
The rhythmic grooves they and Lyle lay down here are so flawlessly solid...unique swing feel at 3:18 under the first solo just one example...all rhythm section players should study THIS video for how it’s done!
I absolutely LOVE this piece.
A complete masterpiece!
This needs way more likes
he is a genious!! love this song!!
The Greatest Group Of All Time 🐐
Antonio Sanchez is GOD on drums
Yes he is
Inspiring beyond belief
