Some Jazz to get us through the days | Pat Metheny - It Starts When We Disappear [REACTION] 

Oh my God in heaven! I can't believe that you have reacted to Pat Metheny who is my absolute favorite. You should do the song Half-Life of Absolution live. Rest in deepest of Peace Lyle Mays.

"It's telling a story without any words." I ❤ that observation. 👍🎶

I saw Pat and friends preform this live in Charlotte NC in February . I felt very fortunate to be there . I've been a fan since I was 11 years old. I'll be in 57 in a few weeks. Love your reaction to this music.

Pat is the greatest. Beautiful music. guitar work is the best.

My favorite musical performer! I've seen Metheny many times starting in 1987 at the Tower Theater in Philadelphia PA.

Saw Pat play 2 sets on tour with this group … unbelievable, Pat is playing the best I have ever heard him … great group, James Francis on keys is amazing … 👍

I love your reaction! Pat is one of our premier jazz guitarist.His style is unmistakable...listen to the album entitled "The Pat Metheny Group...the white album...you'll love it! RIP..Lyle May's one of the great jazz keyboardist of our generation...ps...OFF RAMP..is another great album...

Pat is an amazing jazz musician. I have good memories of seeing the Pat Metheny Group at three northern CA venues in the mid '80s, the best of which was the Old Paul Masson Winery (now called the Mountain Winery) in Saratoga - - a magical performance. In those days their signature song was “Phase Dance” from their 1978 album. I highly recommend “The First Circle,” Tell It All,” and “End of the Game” from the 1984 album First Circle.

finally someone react to jazz .Nice!!!!

Pat Metheny is a treasure trove - a great Jazz parallel to the world of Pink Floyd, always painting wondrous dreamscapes. And don’t forget what Jazz means: so much of what we hear is great players improvising on the spot, negotiating with each other on the spot, with whatever basic framework they’re given. That’s the magic and genius of the whole thing. Jazz in all its flavors always takes that constant wonderful risk. Glad you’re growing to like it. 🥰👍🏻

First time I heard👂his music it's was through a radio station on Sundays called Urban jazz Experience. I knew him with Minuano. But this man is on another level love ❤ this. And I love your reaction to this

It is called Jazz fusion. some of my favorites Al Di Meola, Jon Luc Ponty, Jeff Beck, Herbie Hancock

I love Pat Metheny!! Two of my personal favorites are "Slip Away" and "Spring Ain't Here" from the LP "Letter From Home"

Bravo to you for reacting to something so gloriously adventurous! It's also brand new. The full album hasn't even been released yet!

Class and creativity…,that’s Pat…..thanks for taking this one on…it shows your open heart

Little known fact: Stealing a car while playing jazz saxophone is known as Grand Theft Alto.

A very enjoyable journey, thanks, Rxyce. ✌😘🎶🎸🎹🔥💞

Another great LP by Pat is "Beyond the Missouri Sky" with bassist Charlie Haden, sublime.

Nice, relaxing music! Thanks Rxyce! 🌹🌹🌹

First Circle is also a really good choice.

Knocked over a bunch of trash cans, 🤣 Love it! My dad was into Pat Matheny back in the day. Good stuff!

As an old Kansas City Kid, Pat Metheny is a local (Lee's Summit, MO, close enough) boy makes good. As an archetypal impoverished (well, not rich) college student, I saw him play for free several times at Brush Creek as part of the K. C. Parks & Rec, Concerts in the Parks series ("And please walk on the grass."). After I graduated and had a regular income, we could pay to see him and distinguished colleagues at various local venues. Good memories, great music.

the famous "brazilian glide" sound of metheny. not running, but gliding in a yacht off the coast of brazil high in the clouds and the foam up against the floating palace.

No one has made me as happy musically as he has. And in concert it's even better. Genius and figure. I love him for so much music and of such quality.

Royce your reaction was perfection! 👌🏽 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️

Back to Pat for a minute, he is such a prolific music writer, Try Minuane and early Metheny, "New Chautauqua, and so many more, makes life beautiful...

Amazing song and album from Pat. James Francies on keyboards (the bass lines, too) is an incredible discovery.

Also ... Pat with Roy Haynes and Dave Holland "Three Flights Up" (exquisite drumming), Pat with Ornette Coleman "Mob Job", "Third Wind" from Still Life (Talking)

Love your appreciation of Jazz. PM has been my fav since the 70's, so nice to see and hear your enjoyment of this latest piece.

Thank you for doing Pat Metheny. He is phenomenal. You have to check out his song San Lorenzo it is quite a musical journey to go on.

I love Pat Metheny!

Pat’s Side Eye band is playing some classic hits from his original band Pat Metheny Group. Go a listen to those masterpiece albums from the 70s-2000s

So refreshing to see when someone as young as you listens to Pat or PMG and then gets it. Almost everything with him takes you on a ..... an "adventure" I hope you find your way into his earlier music that won him so many grammy awards in different categories. The man just knows how to compose and arrange like only a handful ever could. Enjoy your journey! ps... try Pat Metheny & Kenny Garrett performing a Coltrane track Lonnie's Lament.

It is so good to see a reaction video of some very tastefully done music,Pat is one of the top jazz guitarists out there 🎸🔥

Yes! Jazz.

Do “From this Place” original video…and America Undefined…Then go back to the beginning with “Bright Size Life, Watercolors, The White Album and dozens more albums and hundreds of great songs….Hey Mauricio!

You might also like the song "To the end of the world" by Pat ! 😉✨

Listen gotta listen to Pat Metheny's Still Life Talking album. You can't get a true appreciation of Pat without hearing him jam with Lyle Mays, his departed pianist/keyboardist.

As for vocal material Pat Metheny has collaborated with Joni Mitchell.

Another masterpiece but with vocals, do listen to "finding and believing" (live version). Spellbinding!

New release from July 2021 nice

I love this song. You're reaction was great. Very genuine.

Thanks thanks thanks!!! I'm in shock!!!

You must be one of the only person who does a reaction to Jazz....I also indulge in a little Jazz sometimes thanks Steely Dan has a lot of Jazz influences

You are so special ❤️

Like you, the music is absolutely beautiful. The percussion in this song is stunning!

66 comments always repeating numbers…some nice jazz with my sunday morning coffee ☕️🔥🌿👍👍🙏🦋🌈🌞🌻✌🏻

Tremendo Pat metheny lo vi tocar a 10 metros de mi locura total.

I think that's why some people prefer reading the book over watching the movie.... They can use their own imagination and create their own visuals in their mind. For me this would be the perfect song for a car ride in the night.

Love Pat Metheny...my favorite is "Last Train Home" If you have a chance, give it a listen. So smooooth

You could spend months down the Pat Metheny rabbit hole....

Are you going with me -is a must

Knocking over trash cans… 😀 I was at a PMG show in Chicago a few decades ago where Pats then drummer, Paul Wertico, ended the tune by throwing a bunch of hubcaps and jingle bells on the floor!

" ... and it's telling a story without any words" ...

And its just three dudes playing this. My goodness Pat. And james and marcus.

Pat Metheny is to jazz guitar as jazz guitar is to Pat Metheny.

love pay metheny jazz legend, it takes you on a trip. one the jazz guitarist , check out john mclaughlin, he jazz fusion group in the 70's called mahivshu orchestra, killer stuff

Well done reaction! So cool to see a new generation of Pat fans! Side Eye is on tour. I’ve been twice so far. Go if you get a chance. Pat still jams.

This song reminds me of a monday morning. Wake up. Get ready coffee. Drive way hit freeway. Traffic and bobbing and weaving to get to my damn computer at work. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I put my Trekkie suit on fer this one...this takesu s to the stratosphere...wow!Ty dear...standing OV for sure

Great choice. And what you said at the end @ 17:20, that's why instrumental music is so cool to me, since it has no lyrics, it allows the listener to externalize whatever is inside oneself. It's like a sonic Rorschach in a way - since every person fills in 'the blanks' w/ their own imagination, the actual musical experience is a personal journey that often ends up telling more about the listeners themselves than the anything else.

If you are not familiar with Pat, I recommend "Travels" ~1982. It will take you places you didn't know existed.

When you're ready to listen to the jazz with words, Ella Fitzgerald's "you go to my head" will take you to another world!!

I'm a big Deadhead and I would love if you reacted to a Grateful Dead song...preferably live. They are known for their long improvisational jams so they're songs have large portions of instrumental parts to them. Their live songs are usually long so it's tough to pick one that might be fitting for you to react to. But I suggest checking something out by them. Maybe someone can help me out with a choice of song? Perhaps a Morning Dew?

No disrespect to anyone here. I don’t know that I would have picked this tune as an introduction to Metheny. Probably at least 20 off the top of my head that I would put before this. I love this piece, but….. anyway, I love the fact that she gave this a shot.

OH Yeah, The Pat Metheny rabbit hole is a beautiful one. Try this: React to "Ferry Cross the Mersey" by Gerry and the Pacemakers and then listen to Pat's version next

Still can't concentrate 100% on the music coz of you ! :) and god know i love music (that's really a jam btw)

Thx! It’s important to know the names of each artist playing. I love this! -Terry

It's about time someone has some jazz. The innovators of music ,and allow the listeners open up their imaginations. Only classical comes close. As a sailor, it is exactly like sailing. From the raging Sea to a stary night with calm. Django Reinhardt, Charlie Christian, Wes Montgomery. The three pillars of jazz guitarist.

Found this and your response is just as my response was over 30 years ago. Enjoy.

i was relaxing then you got me imagining a scenario and🤣 i pictured myself running around the house picking up really quickly because my husband has just told me his mother is stopping by shortly 😂🤣😂🤣

If you enjoyed this, check out his 1976 album Bright size life, which is widely considered one of his best.

If you ever want to do an album reaction I suggest Friday night in San Francisco with Al Di Meola Paco de Lucia and John McLaughlin

Also Frank Zappa has at least two albums in this genre, but of course the Zappa way: "The grand wazoo" and "Waka/Jawaka". Many other jazz fusion artist has played in Zappa's Mothers of invention. (Actually most of his production is sort of jazz but it doesn't sound like jazz 😁)

Wow, that was a cool little journey. Finally getting around to listening to some jazz. OT but Oscar Peterson on the piano is blowing me away. And very cool reaction, you have a great imagination.

Yeah you know it's okay my dear the only thing is you're really want get steered in the right direction just listen to songs off of the album off ramp yeah my favorite is the song 18 and then there's this other very haunting song called au lait sometimes I can't even listen to it because it has so much emotion in it for me for some reason it is such a beautiful song and that it has this transition which is transformative that's all I can say it's the same song Just reorganized in such a positive way the whole point is this music has that structure that has that energy and most important of all it has that emotion I think my two favorite songs were probably written by Lyle Mays he's gone now unfortunately he was a keyboard player I believe you know Pat Metheny and Jaco Pastorius played with Joni Mitchell and did a live album that was absolutely astonishing so I guess what I'm getting at is sometimes Jazz can just go through the motions but I prefer it when it goes through the emotions and when you hear these two songs you'll see what I mean that one song eighteen there's this one part where the Baseline is doing something and the keyboard is like in a different key in a way it just the song breaks all these rules I love that all right my dear girl listen the only problem is if you're going to get here music from RU-vid ironically the songs are on premium Wouldn't you know it? But if you Google it you'll find it on other formats the one I tried was some I don't know it was Chinese or some other Asian country but there it was it is amazing I actually had this record on vinyl I probably have it in storage somewhere which brings me to another thing I think anybody who reacts music I think it would be better if somehow you can do it in a medium that's not MP3 if that is at all possible and then you can hear the richness and the depth and the intricacies of the music instead of the compressed version especially if you listen to that French song I can't see the name Google doesn't Translate French at least not in the US all right my dear sweet human I'll check you on the next drop

Oh man, if you’ve just discovered Pat Metheny, Lyle Mays and PMG - are you in for a deep dive 🙂 I suggest the Albums First Circle, Travels and the tunes Airstream and Minuano. The tune First Circle itself is….incredible.

Yes! So many more Pat Metheny songs to listen to.

John Mclaughlin's "Follow Your Heart " will take you inside yourself in 4mins. Earl Klugh's "Catherine " and his take on "Long Ago and Far Away " will take you on vacation. Noel Pointer's violin on "Wayfaring Stranger " may make you weep. But, for an upbeat trip, nothing beats Ronnie Laws' "Good Time Ride". If you don't try any of these on the channel, I hope you try at least one in your free time. Thanks for playing a good jazz number

Love your channel Rogue! Thank you for reacting to one of the great guitarists of all time! When you get a chance,please react to his masterpiece, "First Circle". It has to be one of the greatest pieces of music ever recorded ,regardless of genre.

I was at this very performance which signalled the end of a chapter of my life into a new one as a woman. I can be heard at the end of the track... that "whoo!!! Yeah!!!" at the end is me. Lol. Pat was using his Orchestrion a robotic instrument ensemble for all the percussion parts besides Marcus Gilmore the live drummer. Everything Pat recorded with the Pat Metheny Group with the late keyboardist Lyle Mays is ESSENTIAL but for a start the albums "Offramp", "Travels" and "Still Life (Talking)" in their entirety are musts. When you want to check out "straight ahead jazz" Pat, "Question and Answer" and "Trio Live" are great to start

Hi Ms. RR., How do U know about Mr. Pat Metheny?? Try "Last Train Home:" or "5-5-7.. Or someone I like better, Mr. Larry Carlton "Smiles and Smiles To Go" and/or "Sleepwalk".. Mr. Larry and Lee Ritenour did and album together.. Any George Benson song is good, but try "Turn Your Love Around" and/or "Breezin".. ♠W.G.

Let me know if you want more recommendation’s for Pat tunes. He’s got 45 years worth to choose from!

Someone above placed this in the Jazz Fusion camp, and I think I'd respectfully argue that. Metheny/Mays compositions were so uniquely...theirs... unlike almost anything done before, or since. They were their own camp - May's loss could legitimately be considered a tragedy, on his own he was brilliant, in combination with Metheny they achieved transcendence. Sorely missed.

By the way if you haven't seen it you should check out Pat playing live with Joni Mitchell particularly the song AMELUA which ends with an exquisite guitar reverie.

Have a listen to the work Pat did w/ Joni Mitchell on Shadows & Light. Also the breakout album, "Offramp" Both outings are awesome to the extreme. Pat, is well displayed on the Joni song, "Amelia"......

Just want to tell you I think it's cool your Dad played jazz for you as a kid. Maybe you can do a reaction to some of those songs you liked. I bet you know a lot of tunes that I don't and would love to hear them.

Awesome! please do Snarky Puppy next. Their song lingus is mind blowing.

I always feel like i'm hearing a movie soundtrack, and can't quite name the movie, when listening to PMG.

You definitely have to react to James, this is not America, 5-5-7, to the end of the world, San Lorenzo,

Listen to Brenda Russell Piano in the Dark .

ME - THEE- NEY

Also play his song from Offramp Are you going with Me? Great song.

It’s Ma-thaa-nee

Check out his pat metheny group 1982 ‘off ramp’ album and listen to “are you going with me” 👍

Hi. It's "Pat Meth-EE-Knee"....

You must listen to Dirty Loops, "Breakdown" , 'Next to You' and many others. If you dig Pat and hsi keyboard genius, the late great Lyle Mays. You will really dig Dirty loops. Let me know what you think, david

Check out "Secret Story" LP by Pat.

The piano Is one Machín "orchestirion

You're ready for some BrandX.
