The best ever, Metheny when he is passionate and on target is just the greatest guitarist to ever live hands DOWN.

this line up is just magic. He did great things since then but indeed the sound of this particular line up is still fresh and original after 3 decades. Great to see this incredible period for Pat, but also for modern music, well documented in this video. Tnks for posting

Watching this makes me feel like I'm 17 again. PURE ENERGY! Did these guys really understand 30 years ago how impossibly good they were?

Magick from America's and the Worlds most successful (WITH OUT EVER SELLING
OUT) jazz composer/guitarist.
You rarely hear and see passion at the same time!

@seelanne you are absolutely right! Though antonio sanchez is a great drummer. Danny was the only one that kicked his ass ...

@dlangegoogle : i know, but dyvix asked about the lineup in this video an here its wihtout any doubt danny gottlieb and egan on bass. Although i like wertico very much and he played Metheny-Music very well for me Danny is THE drummer in the history of PMG. Egan and Rodby both are great, both in her special ways.

@seelanne Danny left the band in the Early 80s when Paul Wertico came in on drums and now teaches percussion in Univ of North Florida. Mark Egan lives in NYC and is a part of the jazz scene there. While they were both skilled - many feel that Wertico and Steve Rodby have contributed more to the band. Hard to tell - as PMG went to so much more in music after these opening LPs.

@divyx : Danny Gottlieb on Drums and i think its Mark Egan on Bass.

OMG, this is an exceptional version of that tune. Pat's countryish impro on the middle is particularly tasty and moving. The section from 6'30" to 6'52" just moves me to tears...



Thanks for your comments. I'll upload parts of this and other PMG's gigs. Stay tuned.
