Hey, Tony .... I remember this from Witchita Falls album, my favorite Metheny, too. But somehow you make this sound like a modern piece written for classical guiter. You keep expanding the repertoire! Great tone and great arrangement. Jack in San Diego
I've often said that I wouldn't like to end up like someone, cause he's not good enough.. but I can say that I would be more than happy to end up like you. Can you tell me how you got so good in the past? Did u take classes or lock yourself inside 8 hours a day? pleease tell me
I can't believe someone as gifted as you has played my two all time favorite guitar songs, Blood on the Roof Top and PM's September Fifteenth. I have listened to everyone of your you tube videos, you are truly a gifted musician. Thank you for sharing your music.
All I can say is wow! You have a great touch and an amazing set of ears! I am blown away by your rendition of this great tune. I simply can't thank you enough for posting this and for sharing your music with us. You have a great talent!
Very nice. Metheny's music is my whole world, and you're one of the few of us left who is actually capable of retaining the chord progressions and the feel as accurately as humanly possible.
Wow! i was just listening 'If I could' by Pat, I think pat's concept of tone production and choice of right notes was awesome. Can you do the arrangements on 'If I could', i really love the simplicity of that melody. and by the way, you did a fantastic job on this one! i am loving it!
don't know that one. what album is it on. i just picked up a recent solo guitar album of his ("one quiet night") that i'm giving a first few listens to. his music can be really hard to get a grasp of.
It's extremely difficult to capture the delicate and difficult harmony of Metheny's tunes. Here all the harmony is intact, Master. Almost SIX! minutes of relax and enjoyment.... Thanks, Tony!
thanks, Jesus. and I'd say this tune is one of his most harmonically straightforward. Probably what makes it a stand out choice for my kind of approach. A lot of his stuff I can't get a handle on. Too hard to figure out and diaphanous and impromptu and all that jazz.
Well you went ahead and took one of my favorite songs and favorite artists, put your touch to it and made magic! Wonderfully feeling and subtle touch! You never fail to impress! Thanks for the enjoyment!
Having never heard this piece before, I visited the original over to the right in the suggested videos section. I must say I prefer your performance over the original. I think such a delicate piece as this requires a solo instrumental approach. The modernistic chordal sounds are really a standout over the more traditional opening. Without being buried beneath what I deem excessive synth beds & strings, the piece truly shines in its compositional variety. Outstanding, and thanks for posting! ~Jon
Yeah I imagine to someone coming to it nowadays the orig may sound a bit dated. Funny, it doesn't to me. It just takes me back to the summer of '84 when i lived on Martha's Vineyard. ah, to be 24 again. I suppose if Pat wrote and recorded it now he would use a full string section or something. but you must admit the body of the tune doesn't have very much synth. Thanks, buddy
@troubleclef So true. I suppose things only appear dated to those who didn't experience it fresh & new back-in-the-day. Like me and Kate Bush; none of her music seems dated to me. Ciao.
