If Lyle mays solo here could talk ,it would be like somebody telling me that life is good and everything is going to work out better than you could ever imagined!!!!!!!! Rest in peace Brother Lyle, miss you man😢.
Grateful he's playing grateful solo you can feel the dynamic he had when he was young this sound was a new era in Jazz. Like Chick Corea with hes sound maybe one decade before. But of course for me Pat methene the only one who makes kind of jazz with latin rhythm afro rhythm.ect.Just painting music
"It's just talk", but the level of conversation is on a rhythmic level that transcends into where Lyle Mays had to ascend in order to transcend himself. He was simply far beyond this life in his element. Just BRILLIANTLY AT PEACE WITH HIS CHOICE IN LIFE TO PLAY THE KEYBOARDS. Like all of the geniuses before him, Lyle gave his all to music, which we have nowas our own part of him. Never to be missed because music is forever. So goes life with Lyle
Never Before...Now ...Or Will Be Such a Genius of Piano/ Keyboad..As Lyle....You Were the Best Of The Pat Metheny Group..and Willl Always Be Regarded as Such. Pure Magic..Fingers...and Amazing Composition.....Lost You Too Soon.. Rest ..In ...God''s Arms....You Gifted Piano Man....Michael.... 8in
Pat Metheny's song "It's Just talk" is like standing lakeside as a high speed boat and water skier, at a 45 degree angle,comes by and deluges you in a huge wave of water.
The video is not of best quality, the sound is not all there, and still, these guys sound so freakin awesome after all these years. Hats off to Pat and the gang. And Lyle is in my opinion, just like you will see further down in the comments, is one of the best acoustic piano players of MUSIC in the whole world. When you hear Lyle, you hear all of music, all of life - it hits the soul. What a solo, once again - its always Lyles..........oh, and BTW, this is one of Pat's most unique and awesome solos as well, but what can you expect from Pat but only the best!
@@chriswilkes236 The drumming during Lyle's solo sounds fine to me; what you're hearing might just be an artifact of the poor quality of the recording, maybe? Paul Wertico is no slouch.
Man, that's ....: First time I heard Lyle's debut album I thought:"that is all of life." I never heard anybody say that. Now YOU say the exact same words! Wonderful to hear that. Wish you lived next door.
He is a star..Interesting if you listen to the solo also he made one mistake (accidentally hit two keys at once). So he wasn't God...just a human genius. I listen to this band almost every day!
Superb. First heard this as an analogue tape. Modern digital is very good but always sounds rather dry and desiccated. Seeing these live performances despite the recording imperfections gives them real life, especially with the all the little vignettes and improv s these talented musicians bring to the moment.
Yes the Lyle mays is sounding great even without the organ/piano combination. On another note It seems shortly after they release a new record and on tour. If they played with a new piano effect or guitar sound effect on the record. How best to play with that effect is still fresh in there minds. But understandable as time goes by, they forget how they played that one song in a unique way. I mean has Lyle ever used that keyboard sound on "are you going with me" ever again. I hope I typed that right.
+Concepcion, thanks for posting "It's Just Talk." In this version I'm picking up more of a Latin/Swing tempo to the music. Were you there at this live performance?
Muy buen solo de Lyle... pero también discrepo. Vean la versión de este mismo tema en Santiago de Chile 1987 (canal methenychile), creo que en ese no solamente el solo de piano es mejor sino todo el trabajo de teclados, con el sampleo de órgano, etc.
