Pat Metheny is as high as you can go in music. There are many great musicians in the world, dead and living, but his is the pinnacle of achievement possible by the human intellect. Centuries on, his music will be studied, there will be Ph.ds based on his music and so forth. Should our progeny be so lucky, his music may even be performed live as homage (and only as homage as no mere worthless mortal can be or play as him). Perhaps Bach and Metheny will look down on them with a tender smile from the immaterial planes above, the way fathers smile at their children.
WOW Michael!!! how did you HEAR those words in my MIND!!! LOL LOL!! couldn't AGREE MORE!!! there's NOWHERE ELSE TO GO AFTER THIS!!! Pat is just beyond #DOPE!! sometimes I don't even know HOW TO DESCRIBE him!! #SMH when i attended my FIRST concert, I couldn't SLEEP for a WEEK!!! every song, note, vocal sound, riff was IN MY HEAD!! this what he DOES!! w/OUT even knowing how he's affected the UNIVERSE!!! like U said, there's nowhere ELSE TO GO after you GET HERE!!! #PMGallday
There's no pinnacle... There is a volume of possibilites that human can go on that type of area. I believe he's awesome, but he's not all things in music. Absolutely. And i love him.
Did you transcribe it in writing on a score by chance? I also love this piece of music! In particular the final of the solo from 5:46 is a kind of apotheosis I find.
Just a truly outstanding chart...that whole album SON ooozes from every pore great compos...love it...
im fucking in love with this riff
Been a fan since 83, turned on by cassette tape. Grateful.

They start with african rhythm name makossa from Camerun inspired by Richard Bona
My drummer of choice with Pat & Lyle has always been Dan Gottleib, from American Garage, etc.
Love me some Danny, love me some Paul, love me some Antonio, love 'em all...
