  • In addition to everything else, this album must the the ultimate driving music!

    I have driven hundreds and hundreds of miles to this. One can just drive on and on!

  • Probably one of the most important pieces of music along with Still life Talking. Lyle mays is one of the best and I would say is on the top of the list with Kit Watkins. That is saying alot!!

  • great pictures! This album brings back memories, feelings and emotions from 20+ years ago. Hard to find music like this today.

  • welcome wichita welcome and you and i can fly from here.

  • one of the greatest callborations of jazz matheny and mays

  • I'm happy to hear this after all these years, still as beautiful as it was when it came out.

  • Magnificent as always, thank you so much for loading ...

  • Oh wow, I haven't heard this since I got rid of all my cassette tapes. It sounds as amazing to me now as it did then. I guess it's time I get a CD or join the 21st Century and get an mp3 player...... :-}

  • I've loved this opus since I was first turned on to it back in the late 80s or early 90s when I was but a yound mann in my early 20s. So relaxing. Great to put on in the morning while drinking a cup of coffe and watching the sun rise. For that matter, great to put on anytime I feel inn need of finding a peaceful place inside of myself.

    Lovely.

  • this is what i call very very good taste in music, you got it . loved pat for years hes so darn good. heard him live on many occasions

  • This is truly a classic of all time. I remember seeing the Pat Metheny Group with Lyle Mayes in 1984 doing their Offramp concert in Toronto with my friend Janice. This song really stands out.

    VERY GOOD. Better than Yes.

  • You´re right bro..... It´s mind blowing... An as someone said... One never tires of this fantastic music. It´s something else. Tell you, There´s a healing factor to Metheny´s music.... It´s some sort of beautiful medicin, impossible to od. The more you listen to it the better you feel.

  • Where's the Love button?

  • one of the greatest if not the greatest musician compared to all genres.. he was a musical mastermind

  • When John Lennon died he was 15 miles from my home in NYC...WNEW-FM played round the clock Beatles and Lennon songs....with he exception of 2....this...and Whitebird.....that was the begining of my discovery into Pat Methany and It's a Beautiful Day...it wasn't a beautiful week but it t'was another lesson in graditude of life for this 15 yr old!

  • what is that beautiful sound from 9:14 to 9:18 ??

  • @TroySundt It could have been the oberheim 4 voice. It sounds really familiar but I can't put my finger on it.

  • Wow! All time classic... This album introduced me to the Pat Metheny Group and the rest is history.. I have every single records of him... because every album different and unique... It is true.. .this is pure Intelligent Music as its best. Overwhelming virtuosity. This track brings tears to my eyes of excitement.... Thank you so much "miglio100" for this outstanding upload. :)

  • still my fave Pat Metheny album!!!!! on Vinyl!!!!!! as well as all a huge portion of his works.... my fave jazz/fusion (names names names...) artist!!! Truly ethereal!!!!!

    Through Naim/Bryston/Thorens and home-made transmission line speakers.... pure bliss!!!!! :)

  • this is the very first CD I ever owned! Brand new CD player (when CD players were not very common yet) and a brand new PMG CD to go with it. Bliss, pure bliss!

  • Give a resounding jeers to Youtube not allowing longer uploads. Reminds me of my 8-track youth.

  • I used to have this album... I must have worn it out

  • When I first heard this on the radio, I thought it was a new Weather Report song. When the DJ said the name then that it was by Pat Metheny I thought he had made a mistake. But sure enough, Pat was moving in a different direction. I for one was glad he did. When I bought the lp and heard it through my Infinity's it sounded better than I could have imagined. There is so much going on with song when heard through a decent system that you can't really describe it. THANKS.

  • I saw pat and lyle perform this song in toronto

    this was probably in 1983 or 84 on the water

    front of lake Ontario. The Lady I was with made

    this one of the most magical times of my life

    i so wish i was their right now.

  • I mean, anybody can say this about any song, but I mean it: this is probably my single favorite song of all time. As a boy, I grew up hearing this song over and over. Many of times, during the greatest moments of my youth. Many may consider it my history of good childhood with this song, but nothing feels as uplifting as hearing this song to me.

  • @ miglio100

    Many, many thx for this nice upload!

  • These two (Pat and Lyle) will, I'm certain, be remembered in musical history the same way Mozart - and other famous composers from long ago - are in the present.

    On another note, I consider them my idols as far as both performance and composing go. They're somewhere that I hope to be some day.

  • Stunning video to a stunning peice of music. Very well done!

  • One of the best pieces of music. This and "First Circle" are my favorites. This album introduced me to PMG.

  • I could not agree with you more livefromhollywood.

  • Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays became household names among musicians with "the white album" (San Lorenzo, Phase Dance, etc.). Then with American Garage, the band was catapulted onto the pop charts! All of us hardcore musicians were scared their music would keep getting more watered down to suck in those album sales (CD's were not yet available then).

    Then this album came out and I was mindblown they pulled something off like this at the top of their pop fame. Wow.

  • @CribNotes

    ah, you nailed it brother...this group was the last train home fore it all went to hell, and music in Amerika meant whorin for the man.

  • @CribNotes

    Um, no offense, but what song(s) from AMERICAN GARAGE ever made the "pop charts"?  And what "pop fame"? *puzzled*

  • @CribNotes Yes, Thankfully American Garage was not the beginning of a pop sellout trend. PM and PMG are awesome musicians.

  • wow - i thank you for posting this wonderful rare moments of generious music

  • My all time favourite soundscape.

  • Timeless classic after almost 30 years. Hopefully someone will be saying this in 300 years. I think they will . . . .

    Thank you Miglio 100 for posting.

    I'm sure the boyz wouldn't mind.

  • @LivefromHollywood

    No problem. I never tire of this myself; I just love it. Nah...the guys wouldn't mind. It was fulfilling doing it.

  • @LivefromHollywood genius song, now try this

  • @LivefromHollywood genius song, now listen to "the roots of coincidence" - WoW

  • @LivefromHollywood in 300 years this world will be toast.. the only thing anyone will be saying is.. ooouch!

  • @LivefromHollywood The native american.... before we kill them all and force them to live like animal in park

  • stupendo....e molto profondo...

  • Daccordissimo...il 24 Febbraio lo vedrò live per la terza volta....Semplicemente strepitoso

  • La più bella cosa che ho mai sentito... un opera vera!
