  • impressive is the interference of bossa nova in his repertoire

  • This song will every once in while play in my mind, generating a longing to hear it again, Pat is out of this Wolrd!

  • @Jewlampijs95 wow, the sound of this vid kicks ass. how did you manage to put it that high?

  • 489 likes, 13 dislikes.... how could anyone NOT like this?

  • Pat is Pat.....but the tone of the bass is Wonderful!!!!!!

  • One of my favourites by PMG. Guys, I am, just like surimugg ... speechless. So love this song, it's got so much soul and is so melancholic and beautiful like ocean boundlessness

  • I'm speachless!!!

  • so agree with Macraewalker below

  • Hay clasicos en el Rock!! Pero esto es un clasico de la musica Universal! Sencillamente sublime, Pat, es la mejor interpretación (despues de la original) que he escuchado, eres el mejor! El jazz será eterno gracias a este tipo de interpretaciones.

  • I love the way he jumps at 4:22! And of course all his stripy jumpers...

  • I absolutely love MediaOutletOnline for getting f~ree s0ngs like this one. You should try and find it using Google.

  • Wow! Truly beautiful music!!

  • Thank You for posting my video answer :) This version is fantastic! Pat and Steve are both masters here.

  • pat is one of the few that still makes me cry with his solos. What fucking great piece!

  • What a hash Metheny makes of this beautiful song. Check out 10-year-old Sam Scott's version to see how it's supposed to be played.

  • @rrwheelerrr

    And the drummer is awful; keeps speed it up more and more...like he thinks it's boggie time. BAllad destroyed and turned into generic elevator music. Guitar feels like someone's typing away.

  • @Rexicano You obviously know nothing about the drummer Antonio Sanchez. Your comment is ludicrous. He is one of the most sought after drummers in the world today. You are an idiot for saying the "drummer is awful." He is the best drummer I've ever seen live.

  • @bruce68 used reverb and deley lexicom! and roland gr!

  • I was at this show.  It was fantastic. They did a great version of Phase Dance.

  • sweet

  • WOO! Arena Jazz! Finally! If anyone deserves some pyros with his playing, its Pat.

  • Pat is the best here and everywhere ...

    and forever!

    and etc.

  • maybe the greatest song/video ever - and still available in my country

  • Really fine visted with you guys Santa Rosa at the Luther Burbank Theater 2003 as always a great show. Ivan rane

  • wow that was awesome

  • This is so excelent!!! Watch my version Im starting to play jazz guitar now (used to play folk music fom Puerto Rico) and got some lines from this video

  • I got to see him on his 'orchestrion' tour, that was one of the best nights of my life.

  • Steve Rodby and Paul Wertico's new band - Marbin

  • Oh my gosh!!! Pat is soooo amazing....

  • Tom Jobim, one fo the greatest composers of this century, composed this song...

  • awesome...awesome...awesome...­almost like the way church makes you feel...

  • His sound is great!

  • Too much sound effects.

  • @bruce68 What "sound effects"do you mean?The reverb on Pats guitar?

  • @gebass6 I don't know but i prefer natural sound. May be compressor and chorus kill the natural sound and attack of the guitarist

  • feelingnya parah benr...

    I think your grammar deserves some justice. lol

  • Antonio Carlos Jobin, o mestre da música brasileira, viva a bossa nova, viva o samba, isso é Brasil!

  • Why i play guitar,it doesnt diserve me

  • I pray to one day have the privilege of witnessing this Deva perform live.

  • It's really sweet...

  • he has fun, the have fun, i have fun - great song, great perfomance

  • @318825768 Actually Pat is just Pat. His compositions say nothing of any other musician I have ever heard. (Yes, I know this is Jobim). Anyhow, I know you're just another one of those know it all jazz losers with no life who talks shit about everyone but yourself. Who are you again? You jazz gay wads are all the same. "Let's play as many notes as possible and call it music 'cause I have no musical talent. I can only play what lame band teachers tell me I'm allowed to play." BOOOOORINNG!!!

  • @318825768

    U're a cheap copy of a musician

  • A diamond swimming in a sea of 25 Cent plastic rings and glue - on mustaches.

  • Pat's playing requires both very high technique and passion , but he is so incredibly a easy listening guitarist, no matter you know how to play an instrument or not, you can feel he is saying somthing in his music. When I first listen to this version of How Insensitive , I can't stop myself from watching this video again and again, it's been about 2 years and I'm still watching this! Thanks for posting this!

  • @CMaj7b5 Be careful with the word easy listening! I know what you mean by it.. As in: you just "get it" when you hear the music.. the message is clear and you don't have to be some sort of musical genius to understand (: ! Right? but when you use that word in conversation with for instance, Pat he'll probably slap you in the face for comparing his music to elevator music xD which in a lot of people's vocabulary is a synonim for easy listening :P! Cheers

  • @diederikeggenkamp "the message is clear and you don't have to be some sort of musical genius to understand" yes that's my point! cus Im not good in English. Thanks for reply

  • GRACIAS POR EXISTIR

  • some great solo work here by Pat.

  • Sorry people I didnt like this version at all.. just turn out to be like an improvising gig.. like a jam.. it doesnt have any creative construction on the song.. it's like "let´s play"... and sorry I really like Antonio Sanchez.. but he failed there.. brazilian drum is really hard to understand.. like jazz.. its all unlinear.. i guess he didn't get it..

    I'm not saying all that as a Brazilian that I am, but as a musician..

  • @leotvz to many jazz musicians the head is just a vehicle to set a stage for the blowing. I also don't think that Sanchez was trying to exactly emulate brazilain drums. I think this entire gourp was putting their collective stamp on a standard tune. When you listen to Pat or any of his groups or ensembles he is playing in you can not expect standard tunes to sound...well standard.

  • @leotvz What? Jazz musicians have been improvising like this since the 40s! Go check out some of the old vids of Charlie Parker and you'll see what I mean.

  • Haha i love how antonio put lamp chain as his fake rivets :D ( i do that also ;) )

  • Fantastic!

  • This song is so awesome...I love how this guy tells a story with his playing.

  • Check out Steve Rodby. Smooth as silk on the Double Bass.

  • Those "naysayers" of you...go back to Music 101..!

    You're, in my humble opinion...clueless!

  • its funny you said that. ive never heard of this guy until i went to music school. im sooooooo glad i learned about this guy. pat's a fucking legend.

  • Wow, really great!

  • Waw... so.. flying !!

  • wow!

  • senza parole

  • the famed 'orgasm faces' start at 3:50 and last the length of the solo

  • @aspadeaspade1 ,,,,,so agreed!

  • I disagree, I think its right on for the space they are playing in.

  • onore a te o DIO dela musica

  • great solo Metheny, the holy ghost took over!

    This drummer is sick, amazing gringo groove.

  • @SergioPires2010 Metheny is the best!!! but the drummer aint no gringo, He's latin, Antonio Sanchez, from Mexico

  • @SergioPires2010 He's actually not a gringo, his name is Antonio Sanchez. :P

  • @hypersonic12 So for a Brazilian, that makes him a "Cucaracha" - almost as bad as a Gringo, but not as bad as an Argentinian...... "Can a white man play the blues?" translated into Brazilian = "Can a Cucaracha/Gringo play bossa/samba?". And for the answer to that perhaps we can have SergioPires2010 back up again... "Ah yes, close, guys, but no cigar".... Except that this is not meant to be a Brazilian bossa, played by white middle-class Brazilians for .... white middle-class Brazilians.....

  • @twangbarfly ehhhhhh that was fuckign amazing stop complaining you fuck...

  • @gugabool1 Do you know what I'm complaining about? No? Fail! Try turning your mouth off and switching your brain on before you hit your keyboard - of course it's fucking amazing!!!

  • bom demais!

  • Own style for sure.... incredible intensity and originality.

  • he created a new style, way of soloing guitar...Pat I love your music.

  • you know i don't think i've ever heard him play "Spain"

  • I guess you still haven't

  • i would love to hear him play spain! that would kick some serious ass.

  • Tricked out?!?! I beg to differ. This is a wonderful interpretation in the tradition of Antonio Carlos Jobim!

  • Even if another artist did some amazing rendition of the song... there's no active principle in effect which somehow would serve to diminish the artistic brilliance of this performance.

  • ...and of course the two people who've given a "thumb down" to this comment of mine have nothing to say so they lazily click the thumb.

  • WOW!!!

  • Yes,the best master.:-)

  • he is the master!

  • he doesn't even have to look at the neck!

  • GENIUS!

  • es emocionante ver a este hombre tocar, lo da todo!!!

  • The master of phrasing and crafting a story telling solo! Not many can structure their solos to build up the way he does. Also, his sidestepping is so elegantly executed! Much like Kenny Garrett in some ways.

  • @AmundLauritzen YOu cannot beat WES ! sadly.. i like dis take though

  • where's waldo!!

  • yea im gonna rip that intro

  • i love pat's music but it has it's ups and downs based on listening and ispiration

  • yeah i wish i had this on cd. i know a few bits of it from what ive learned off here.

  • i gotta study that intro.....so rich....pat is the cat!

  • Antonio Sanchez.

  • sweet!!

  • Maravilhoso!!!!!!

  • Incredible! He captured and enraptured the audience at the Montreal Jazz Festival a few years ago that the festival concluded with a massive free non scheduled concert that had so may spectators that the transportation system was a mess. When I finally got near the area the crowd was such as to make me go back home after all the effort to get there. I wonder if anyone knows the estimated crowd numbers for that performance. He simply wowed the adoring people of Montreal! Bravo!

  • 1:56 nice

  • when i see this i don't want to play guitar anymore... its too good... unbelieveble

    pat is the best

  • this should be inspiration!

    good luck :)

  • Pat Is Brilliant !!

  • C est LE plus grand. Rien a dire.

  • no doubt about it: it is the very best version of How insensitive - more passion (given from one of the most versatile guitarist on earth) is not possible - this version is a milestone in jazzmusic. Pat Metheny is unbelievable - with the drive of the drummer and the steady bass this version of How insensitive goes deep into my heart!

  • Que improviso !

    a lot of stars :D

  • Its nice and cool, but nothing like brazilian swing.. Antonio Jobim 4life!

  • @NiTroOoO Who cares about Brazilian swing in this context? I'd rather hear this!

  • He is at home... defining new standards in bossa-nova.

  • Great!

  • i dont like sorry

  • 403 to 407!!

  • great_!

  • Simplesmente Incrível !

    Romulo -Joinvile - SC - Brasil

  • makes the hair on the back of ones neck stand up.....>!

  • It's my favorite along the version by Montgomery. A classic! Brilliant!

  • Antonio Sanchez is a mutant.

  • Pat KILLS this song. (I mean this in a good way...)

  • @guitarcolossus, I would say he kills listeners (in a good way)))))))))))))))

  • PAT METHENY GENIUS!!!

  • Sui generis..!

  • absolutely great, as usual, but.....Pat's trouble, now, is his sound...that absolutely faboulus ES175 coming from a '56 world is (weel was...) simply Pat's sound. The PM Ibanez is almost nothing in comparison...when I hear it I start to become...nervous! Hey Pat, throw it from any window and get back again you ES175...please...

  • Pat retired the 175 because it was on the verge of falling to pieces. His opinion is that the Ibenez sounds just as good as the 175. On one album (We Live Here, maybe?), half the tracks were recorded with the 175, the other half with the Ibenez. Can you tell which are which? I can't.

  • This is a clear, articulate tone. No muffled barking. I dig it.

  • uuuughhh i wish i could play like that.!!!!

  • Yeah, don't we all!!! Having musical ability like that must be so awesome.

  • Absolutely brilliant rendition!

  • are you kidding me? this is ridiculously Pat at his best. Awesome!!

  • dayum my dawg sanchez got dat bossa on lock

  • Where is Waldo? ..Where is Pat?

  • I love how almost all traditional jazz guitarist sort of avoided string bending on the guitar. And Pat has managed to use it in his own way and make it sound great. Although he uses it very subtlely.

  • lol yeah so if anyone wants to buy me that guitar. that'd just be stellar

  • ha he quoted jaco at 4:14

  • how do you make those time links????

  • what song?

  • Does anyone have tabs for this or know where to find it??? It would be great if someone can help me out.

  • As good as Antonio Sanchez is, i wish pat played with Brian Blade more often.

  • GREAT angles of Antonio...

  • anyone have tabs for this?!!? omg..

  • me estas salvando la vida pat muchas gracias

  • smooth...

  • Hey check out these older Japanese gentlemen doing this song. SOEDWARDS has them on a video doing this song.

  • I never tire of hearing Pat.

  • pat metheny es el cangri! oh si mamabicho!

  • PAT METHENY MASTER !!!

    defay11 guitarist

  • mortal,hermanos,mortal este trio...

  • what a trip!, what a medicine for souls! thank you pat , its a pleasure hear you!

  • Je n'avais jamais ecoute' Metheny avec la musique d'un autre. Jobim au moins!  Merveilleux!

  • rodby is such a badass

  • I just Pat. Exquisite.

  • Where was this filmed - anybody know?

  • I am a longtime Metheny-fan. So happy to hear and see this vid. It is absolutely beautiful.

  • So am I ...

    A great musician ... Such a soulful playing,and so much talent ... A really thrilling way of playing the guitar !

    Thank you so much, dear Pat Metheny !!!

  • I wanna see John McLaughlin and Metheney play together...will this ever become reality?

  • i have heard all his discography about... 10 times. I never get bored with pat. he's the one...

  • He definately is the musical pinnacle of our time

  • I never get tired of hearing this song. It gives me goose bumps. I am not a musician, but you don't have to be one to know that the sequence from 4:30 to 4:45 is very difficult. Metheny is the Mozart of our generation.

  • thats probably one of the easier parts ;) but non the less brilliant

  • Metheny is Mozart?

    So, who is Antonio Carlos Jobim?

    God?

  • Nice sentence to paint in any white wall: JOBIM IS GOD.

  • 4:30 to 4:45 is actually one of the easier sections...this goes to show that whether or not you are a musician and whether or not you studied music does affect your ability to appreciate music...but hey....you do appreciate Pat Metheny so right on!!!

  • 3:39 to 4:06 is probably the most technically demanding section to play - clearly this is "rehearsed material," especially that arpeggiated transition at 3:39.

  • Make that 3:38. Of course with Metheny's vast catalog of 'favorite licks,' and his ability to string ideas together so fluidly, the line between improvisation and structure is often a blur. There's so little 'dead space' in all of his playing, which is one of the things that I think really sets him apart. Every note and phrase means something.
