This young man is 84! Looking in really great shape Mr Ron Carter.
What a privilege to listen to two utter legends... discussing a parking space! Thanks so much for posting and stay well. x
These two masters need to get together and record a duet album ASAP!
Love Ron Carter and I'm a Huge Metheny fan as well! 50's/60's era Jazz is my passion, but Pat is a unique cat who gets the music on a deep level and thus fits in well with these great masters! Great conversation, really enjoyed this! Blessings to you both Ron & Pat!
Two legendary musicians with massive careers.
It's surreal to think that my hero Ron Carter one day would start a yt podcast...
Such a great and heart warming interview between two giants! Thanks guys!!!
Thank you for listening :)
Oh just LOVE Ron Carter. I recorded with him in the 90’s just once. Life changing to know him and play with him.
I don't know who the real KBKESQ is, but they have made my day!
How beautiful to be able to share this moment with these two maestros.... Thank you so much Ron. 🤗🤗🤗👍👍
I love the idea of Ron Carter dealing with alternate side of the street parking.
😂
Pat you said the drummer is always the leader in your Rick Beato interview!!
Indeed, he did. He also said it in a 2002 interview with MJ1.
Two friends who happen to be superb musicians - what a great hang, even if it’s virtual.
Ron i love how you get right to the interview, limited small talk and jump right in
May 10th 2022
Big birthday for Ron
At Carnegie Hall
Some tickets still available
That was beautiful...such great, wise, genius humans...Thanks Ron and "PM"! ;-)
Just here to give flowers to the amazing Ron Carter. I learned about Mr. Carter from a Tribe Called Quest song and it got me interested in jazz. I thank Mr. Carter for not being an elitist that looked down on hip-hop instead he poured into the genre with his amazing bass playing and allowed new generations to be aware of his music.
Thank you for your kind words :) When A Tribe Called Quest first asked me to record, I didn't know anything about hip-hop, so I asked my sons if they thought I should take the gig. They said yes, and I'm glad I listened.
Love this two Artist Have listen all their 's Album and performance with other wonderfull Artists
When Pat mentioned Ron’s relationship to time he mentioned Ron and the way he keeps time on the bandstand. I thought about all the sessions and how he has to be in different places to play period. Great interview. Ron is the man.
Interresting conversation between to great musicians. Has been a big fan of Ron Carter and Jim Hall together. Did buy all Pat's recordings in the early days. As Ron says, is that melodic guitarists is their own orchestra. Also like to mention Ed Bickert who had his almost endless harmonic chord voicing. Bass can also be very melodic instrument.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Great conversation. Pat is relaxed with his friend. Great to hear.
Great. I'd love to see you talk with David Becker 🎵
….as soon as we can arrange our schedules, it will be done.
@@RonCarterBassist Great thank you sir!
The ultimate reason for Mr Carter posing the question about their public performance layoff reveals itself after hearing a rather philosophical response!
This interview means so much. There's just one thing; he's said on two different interviews that the drummer is the leader of the band. There's the interview someone else mentioned, and there's the MJ1 interview. I get the feeling he said the bassist was the band leader to have a more favorable interview with you. Gotta love him, 'cause he aims to please.
Two of my favorite musicians! Grew up as a drummer playing to Pat Metheny’s great music of the 70s and 80s, and now playing piano to all of his tunes…well, many of his tunes. Ron Carter remains a grandmaster on bass. Loved this interview!
"Sunny" will live forever.
Wow, this is such a wonderful, brilliant conversation; Metheny is incredible, Mr. Carter is a fantastic living legend. So much experience, knowledge, playfulness, this was a joy!
Listening to the level of depth of this conversation is like being a tiny dot desperately clinging to a page. Its hard to come to terms with the breath and scope of these concepts, and at the same time I can't imagine a better use of ones energy, intellect, time and focus. What a gift.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I love that the barking dog is named Parker!
I didn't catch that, thanks....perfect.
My dog heard the bark while I was listening to the interview on my phone and he started barking back.
Oh yes! I knew he was a dog lover. I've had four Guide Dogs. My first Guide, Kiev and I went to his second "The First Circle" show here in Atlanta at the Fox Theatre. I knew "Forward March" was opening the show, so I waited until they marched past me, and what do you think I did? Well, I marched right behind them until that whistle-blow, did a 180 and dashed back to my seat near the back of the audience! I'm so glad I didn't get in trouble for that!
2 BEAUTIFULL HUMAN BEEN
Gabor Szabo is an amazing player
Thank you so much, Ron and Pat. Great 😃 interview with insight and new knowledge!!!
pat metheny seems like a cool dude, nice take
wow wow wow
"Music is just the envelope for the thing".
I've listened to Metheny's music for 35 years, but have heard him interviewed only three times, odd thoughts he's uttered have stayed in my mind:
"I'm extremely aware of the details of existence"...
I now look forward to his interviews, he's a bit unusual:)
I've listened to Ron Carter my entire adult life, some albums hundreds of times. I'll never meet him but I feel like I know him.It was a pleasure to hear these guys talk.
I agree with the idea of music as being the means to an end; establishing and celebrating ideal social relations during performance as Christopher Small extensively wrote in his work. Thanks Ron Carter and Pat Matheny. Stay safe...
I will always love the picture of ron sitting in his house in his chair with McCoy from the back of one of my favorite albums Trident all the best
I love that album and that picture, with Elvin Jones too. I didn't know that was Ron's house.
The way that jazz musicians are connected to each other, personally and musically, across so many styles and age differences always amazes me. These interviews are a great gift to fans and musicians. Thanks for doing this.
Thank you for listening, Mr. Daniels.
I just clicked on cuz two of the musicians I admire most are talking,although I am a classical cellist I do dabble in Jazz and to hear that you guys like the cello is amazing. Thank you Ron Carter for such an intimate and frank conversation.
Thank YOU for listening!
@@RonCarterBassist thank you for putting it together.
Wow, Ron Carter has a podcast? That is cool, I'll follow it closely.
It's strange, but I tear up, maybe in awe of these two people, as I relate to a lot of things they say. The part about music being the envelope struck a chord in me - NPI. Fantastic interview.
get a hold of yourself man
@@MM-rr1kp mmm naah.
Voyer's dream ! thanks RB
The respect and vibe between you two is as warm as melted butter.
Thank You, Ron. Great interview. 2 Living legends.
Double quarter pounder. Good stuff. Quite different approaches. Ron has an ethernal child, playful soul and approaches a gig spontameously, much as a kid on his Lego construction. Fresh and with a slack. Always different.Pat on the other hand is like always inside the gig, restless, planned, always working on the crafting, not a detail left to luck which give us a different result. Maybe not as fresh but huge in conception. Love them both. Both are amazing and both are necessary. The world would be the saddest place without their music.
Loved 🥰 this conversation
Dear Mr. Carter and dear Mr. Metheny! Thanks a lot for your wonderful, respectful and honest talk. It's a great pleasure to me to listen to your soulful experience and - that's evident - for all of your musical masterpieces! Best wishes from my heart! Lovely greetings from Leipzig, Germany.
Two absolute LEGENDS speaking my language. This is amazing!
Thanks for this very entertaining interview. These two gentlemen are great musicians and good people.
I enjoyed watching this sooo much. Although I hardly ever play my guitar anymore, Pat Metheny and Ron Carter changed my life. After seeing Pat's show in 80's in Warsaw, I got interested in jazz music and remined his bigest fan until now. Years after that, when I moved to NYC I studied with Ron at City College and my life was never the same. I've heard Pat say that Miles' Four and More (with Ron playing bass) inspired him to play Jazz. I remember listening to the same LP in Poland and being blown away by the new (to me sound) from a far awar land I did know I would be living in in the future. My mind wonders about what could have, should have, would have been...
Thank you so much for sharing your memories!
I want to see/hear Ron&Pat duo!
Yeeeess you right
My favorite bass player! Subscribed❤️
Thank you for your support!
Shout out to Detroit/Cass Tech legend Mr Ron Carter...Blessings
Two of my favorite musicians! Thank you so much for this conversation, Mr. Carter! Really enjoyed! Greetings from Brazil
Was a close school chum of Rick Beato's in Ithaca back in the Pleistocene. Recently heard his interview with Ron, then Pat and now Ron interviewing Pat seems like the icing on the cake!
I feel like I know these two absolutely remarkable figures a little bit better. This has been such a treat. Everything seems to be going to hell in a hurry in our world and thank God for music and for the truly great souls who create it at the highest level!
Your words are very kind, thank you!
music is the envelope for the thing
Mr. Carter, Excellent interview!! Insightful questions for "not complicated bass player questions". Two music legends in a relaxed setting during a crazy moment in modern history. I see the mutual admiration and respect. Bromance at its best! Thank you both.
I think “not complicated but insightful” might be exactly what bass players and many other musicians should aspire to be!
Thank you so much for this deep & insightful interview Mr. Carter
Happy Sunday ☀️
You are most welcome! I thoroughly enjoyed these conversations - really helped during that "long intermission"
Seeing two of the best musicians of our lifetime chatting away is a beautiful site. If you play stand up bass and arent educated about Ron please go study him. Legend.
i call it “the Big Tacit” - streamed or playback, listeners weren’t in the room, breathing the delicacy of mutual improvisation, We can only hope they appreciate the pause getting sublimated as much as we do.
The level of respect , dedication and personal commitment that these people talk about music , and their own accomplishments in the field , brings a lot of inspiration for a guy like me. Thank you, mr. Ron Carter.
I've seen you Pat a few times, mostly with Lyle and Pat Metheny Group. Love your music, man. And Ron I go back even further, I saw you playing with George Benson in the late 70's.. Awesome musicians, both of you!
Thank you Mr. Coughlin!
So cool to hear longtime pros discuss the music and ask each other questions I wish I knew to ask. Thank you Ron Carter.
You're very welcome!
Two for 1 👏👏👏 Rick, Ron, Pat 👏👏👏👏when it rains it pours 🌧⛈🌧☔️thanks buddy 👏👏👏👏😎👍🏻🥂
This is the first time I have heard Pat Metheny in an interview. I found this segment this morning. I've been a fan since ProjectX, also Offramp is one of my top 3 favorite jazz albums. I still believe when Miles Davis passed away the mantel of improvision was given to Pat Matheny. A special thanks to Ron Carter for this interview. I've never seen Pat Matheny in concert and may never see him. #Come to Orlando lol. Your still on my bucket list. 😁
Hi there, Mr. Jones. If you're on the email list, you and I got the "Side-Eye" tour announcement and the wonderful preorder notice of the limited box set of "Road to the Sun". He'll be there on February 17, so I really hope you finally get to see him! Enjoy!
@@heatherstub Thank you so much for the update. I will definitely put the date on my calendar. 😀😀😀
Hi again Ms Heather!! Just found the tour date for Feb 17th. at the brand new Steinmetz Hall in Downtown Orlando. This is a brand new facility that is being ranked as one of the best arenas for acostics. It's in the top 5 ranking in the world!!!!! Wow!!
here is another interview youll like
th-cam.com/video/QEgalcH_-b4/w-d-xo.html
There's also an interview with Ron Carter on the same channel
Highly recommend the podcast series PM did where he discusses the making of various albums. Really worth seeking out.
Just a beautiful interview. He gave me such peace and happiness this morning.
As a big fan of both of you gentlemen for 45 years, seeing you together from the front row in your duo format a few years back was one of the musical high points in my life. Many thanks to you both, and keep on doing what you do!
Very nice interview !!! Always learning with all of you!!
much love
you guys are so nice
Absolutely the best!
BTW, Fred Katz. Great Jazz Cellist. Also there is a really wild stand-up cellist, Rushad Eggleston, who played in the band Crooked Still, who’s music is uncategorizable
(the last question) I would play drums....with Mr Carter on Ac Bass 8-)
Great questions Mr.Carter!
Wow this was beautiful!
Near 7:10 Pat says he wouldn’t be a musician if it weren’t for Ron. This is to both Ron and Pat: it would be so helpful to hear more about that process, in as much musical detail as you’d be willing to share, for us musicians to learn. Of course that would need to be at least a full interview, just to summarize it, but it would be historical. Please consider this heartfelt request? 🙏🏾🎶💚
Not to answer for Pat or mr Carter, but interpret Metheny's answer as an acknowledgement that hearing Miles Davis' Four and More really got him deep into jazz and on the trajectory of becoming a musician. Mr Carter was of course integral in that quintet. Hence his acknowledgement here.
Thanks for the suggestion! I do plan on doing more interviews in the future.
Yes, we have had a lot of time to see how the relationship with ourselves is.
Ron, greetings from Rochester, NY area. Thanks so much for sharing this. You and Pat have been huge inspirations for me throughout my 50+ yr. career as a professional musician. God bless and stay safe. - rp
Thank you so much Mr. Picket.
Great chat! Thank you!!
I've only recently come to realize that any time l see or hear Ron Carter, l just know everything is gonna be alright.
Weird thing to say or to realize but true, none the less.
Can't imagine ANYONE else anchoring the Miles Davis quintet.
Making those unusual Pinocchio changes swing hard. Damn.
Thanks, Mr C.
Thank you so much!
Two legends!!!
Great!
Ha this one is truly truly fun, thanks Ron :)))
thank you so much Ron Carter!!!
Thanks Sir!
Great as always sir!
Wonderful
Great interview
This was absolutely fantastic
This is SO cool. Two of my (almost) life long heros. Thank you for this. Really good thoughts while we wait to see you in concert.
🎶 great interview!
Matt Brubeck - cellist.
It's lovely to hear two of the musicians I admire the most talk like that. Inspiring. And, You didn't ask, but I would play the bass, too ;-)
You are so right about respecting the moment and prep and giving your best.
It's worked for me thus far...
Great interview. Big fan of your playing. Looking forward to seeing Pat live on the upcoming tour. Seeing your long time band mate Herbie Hancock later in the month. Nice to have live music back again.
Killer - thank you for taking the time to post! It's amazing to see how much both of you legends are sharing these day!
You're welcome!
it's truly wonderful to know Mr. Carter now have his owned channel.
Congratulations Ron.
Really look forward to many forthcoming interviews with great musicians.
Thanks and appreciated Ron, subscribed. 🙂🙏
Thank you for your support! It is appreciated!
wow!
love the light bulb changing experience metaphor and the stretching of time - i've heard this sense of time morphing during the pandemic - to hear two of my idols being affected by it is fascinating and so human of these guys to open up about feeling fear
Wow! You both have been huge influence upon me as a musician and a lover of music. I've spent hours of my formative years listening to both of you. I hope you realize the real and profound impact you've had on my life (and I am sure countless others). Thank you for this!
Thank YOU for your kind words and years of support!
@@RonCarterBassist Farmers feed our bodies, musicians like you feed our souls. In times like the present, the soul-food you've provided is so important.
This is too cool for school. :)
Love your stuff guys.
Writing Ron Carter!
finding Blues Farm...
Blues Farm is such a nice album. I still listen to it all the time.
