How to turn a Jerome Kern tune into "Birds of Fire" and Return to Forever wow that's why I stopped buying Metheny records about 20 years ago. I wonder if he paid royalties to the family for this performance.

yeah that stuff will drive you crazy if you aren't already. Play some classical music man.

This makes me want to pray to the "Pop" gods. Boy hope this is a hit.

any one know the guitarist's name? That kind of funk can't be taught.

Great fun. This is what I call dinner music.

There aren't enough superlatives to describe the joy and beauty Wes Montgomery brought to the world.

I thought Ron Escte was a guitarist

What happened to the 910 you had for Have you met miss jones? Where do you gig?

Earl I am curious that you first thought the guitar could be played with the same compositional depth of a piano when you heard the great Chet Atkins. Had you not heard Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Herb Ellis, Johnny Smith and players like that from earlier years, I suppose the focus on finger styl...

If you like this guy you'd love Jim Nichols.

how much does that thing weight?

My name is Marc Babin too.

I love this song

I have this exact recording but it's on another Album. Segio Mendes Trio it has a black and white cover. I heard Rosinha Devalenca died in 2004. She is as good as it gets on this recording.

Beautiful. Words and music by Norman Gimbel and Joao Gilberto

This is the Gilberto version. Did you learn it by ear? Beautifully done.

I hear this song on the toots thielemans brazilian project album but can't remember who wrote it. Wasn't it origianlly an instrumental. nice job to ad lyrics i think

Pat Metheny, Pat Martino, George Benson, Earl Klugh, Birelli Lagrene,

Where is this group from?

How this guy stays hot year after year club after festival after party???

Philosophically there is something exploitive about this. People pay and 2 million people spend time listening too what Cage is going to perform only because of the hard work of true composers that he juxaposes with his over the top disrespect.

That sounds like a direct rip off of the composer Cage.

Thanks for this man it really helps. It looks like it's cold but there are fewer people walking around in general. I was there in August and in the downtown area around Saint Marcos Square the people were cramped in and it was 90 degrees Farenhiet.

I'm sure Kurt would appreciate the notoriety Metheny gets. They are both geniuses of the guitar. Metheny developed longer as a composer of rock jazz based songs while Kurt focuses on reharmonizing standards as well as composing. Both have that knack of finding something original to say in a ge...

nice bass work. Wo dat?

Yea Peter Horvath. My favorite pianist.

I saw Andy Narell at the Santa Fe Restuarant in Berkeley California in 1974 with the Van Waganenen Brothers and a keyboardist I can't remember. He was a genius then and is now. Always a pleasure to listen too...thanks for posting

I heard Kim Nalley do this at the Fillmore Jazz Festival in San Francisco. She rocked it a couple of weeks ago. BIlly Taylor on youtube.

Can I get a chart of this tune?

Lyle Mays and Pat Metheny a true Cyrano Debergerac tale.

Did the original have lyrics?

Thankyou. May my rule be great and begin after about 6 weeks of practice.

So she plays piano and sings. And that's George Benson with her. Cool.

You'd probably like Howard Morgan. Did you major in music in college? Just curious you sound like you write out you're bass lines

Thanks Ive been working on this from the Virtuoso Standards Collections. Great transcriptions and your classical technique is really nice. There are 7 more pages to this starting in E flat. Did you get to those also?

You show the marking of the port locations but not the installation of the ports. Isn't that the most important part how to get them in deep enough what are they etc. Wasted effort

I picked up a Tom Leher songbook the other day and noticed that this Song Alma was missing from the Index, Table of Contents and the book. It was mentioned in a discography in the back of the book. So is there a controversy???

Great mix of blues ideas and subharmonies.

Did you start thinking in terms of chords and melodies and the bass later? Did you write this out listening to the recording and put together bass and melody first adding the chords later? Whatever process you used you nailed INMHO

It seems like so much time is spent ranking Beck and discussing how underappreciated he is. The guys been a full time guitarist for over 40 years isn't that enough proof he's respected.

How much does UNC cost for tuition, books and housing for a year?

So this is metal music? I always wondered what metal was.
