Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays:
First Circle
It is hard to believe that Lyle Mays has been dead now for more than a year. Equally hard to believe this video was made 28 years ago, when The Pat Metheny Group was it its heyday.
This song feels like you are floating, or flying, due to its unusual 11/4 time signature (6+5).
Lyle Mays' piano solo starting at 4:30 is nothing short of magical.
With Spring on the wing, and the United States opening up from the hard times of the pandemic, this music gives me a breath of hope for the future.
Pat Metheny Group: Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays, Paul Wertico, Steve Rodby, Pedro Aznar, Armando Marcal.
