'Minuano (Six Eight)' Pat Metheny - Day 2 Reaction, Review, and Breakdown | Jazz Fusion Masterpiece"

[@davidlai1961]

This is the song that started me on the road to Pat Metheny Group being my favorite group. In 1987, I heard the song on a smooth jazz radio station and fell in love. They announced that PMG was playing at the Greek Theater in Berkeley, CA in a week or two. I bought tickets. They were the worst seats, top row of the bleachers at the top of the amphitheater, but I still loved it.

Jerking tears out of your eyes. You understand sir. It’s hard to explain. Thank you.

[@hendrir]

It does not need to be explained. It's a purely personal emotion, which is only nice to silently share among each other.

[@johnsullivan311]

the pmg always sounds like this in concert just like you are listening to him on cd or album

[@williamroark]

I miss Lyle 💔 I’ll miss him FOREVER!💜🙏

[@LucilleBrawl17]

I enjoy watching people's expressions when they see and hear music they love.

[@CleverTurtle-lt7im]

Thanks for the video. But just like "The First Circle," this song was composed by Pat Metheny and Lyle Mays. Pat was not the only genius in the room. Lyle gets justifiable credit as a pianist and improviser, but he was also a formidable composer. He should receive equal billing.

[@robertalker652]

I watched the first 76 seconds of your video and realized that your take on Minuano Six Eight and Pat Metheny was more nuanced and definitive than any other reviewer I've witnessed.

[@TheMusicMindset2023]

Well, if you really mean that, I really, sincerely appreciate it. Thanks.

[@robertalker652]

@@TheMusicMindset2023 I meant it wholeheartedly.

Pat’s music is amazing, a true master, with the most creative mind. Writing, playing, Pat takes you for the ride of your life, one that is never ending. I love his music been listening from the beginning, always looking forward for the next jazzy tune. I only got to see him once, couldn’t find someone to watch my 2 daughters so they came with me, they too were amazed with the performance. RIP Lyle Mays, another master musician.

[@johnsullivan311]

was a stage manager at a venue and we booked the PMG .he was touring in support of his new [at the time] grammy winning album As falls wic so falls wic falls and i went down the street for a cocktail during the show.WHAT A FOOL I WAS.

[@anthony27334]

Do'h !!! lol Hope you saw him since !!

[@LucilleBrawl17]

The bassline and drums are incredible on this.

[@MrBlaser51]

It doesn't get better in all our life !!!!

[@gordonschenck1672]

Been a fan of Metheny since 1977 Watercolors. But where it really clicked was Kevin Costner's 1985 movie Fandango. It was supposed to be a late 60s early 70s Vietnam war era movie with the appropriate aged soundtrack but at the end 3 songs from Metheny really brought it home. Check it out some time.

[@craigchapman8220]

You nailed it! How bout a fandango….

[@OllieBivins]

The title refers to two things. It's the name of an Indian tribe in Brazil, bordering Argentina. Minuano is also the name of trade winds in that part of Brazil. The sound is meant to replicate the sound of those trade winds.

GLORIOUS I TELL YOU...

[@TheCoopdway]

Hadn't seen or heard this version yet, thank you!!

[@joewag88]

Minuano live 💗

[@mrjdaddy1]

Great reaction video, you have a lot of good observations and information. I also have loved Pat's music since I first saw him play live around 1980.

[@GonzoMFahri]

pedro being able to play 768 instruments is NNNUTS

[@dawudabdullaah6977]

Pedro Aznar didn't play on this album. Pat had two multi-instrumentalist/vocalists, David Blamires and Mark Ledford, on this one.

[@GonzoMFahri]

@@dawudabdullaah6977 respectfully, if you read my comment you'll see that i was talking about him being able to play so many instruments and not in any way referring to him involved in making of the song.

[@CHWBAKA450]

As a Pat Fan, do you know what I mean when I say the word “toothbrush”? At 11:05, it’s clearly visible on Pats guitar…

[@The_Lincoln_Penny]

Yep

[@John-jy4dj]

This music Had to exist

[@stuartdryer1352]

I like the performances with Pedro too. But I like ALL PMG. All of it.

[@willarth9186]

If you like vocals without word? Sissel Kyrkjebø having fun with, 'Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring'. INCREDIBLE breath control by the best cross-over mezzo-soprano in the world! She sings ANYTHING from Elvis to opera. Perfectly in any language. How about some of that Blue-Eyed Soul from the 60s? The Righteous Brothers, 'You've Lost That Loving Feeling', the most played song on American TV and radio of the 20th Century. OR, the song of theirs where Blue-Eyed Soul goes to Funky Town and they park on Blues Street, 'I Just Wanna Make Love To You'. The song no TV station and very few radio stations would play...

We' coming soon! You be there! Stay with us, we appreciate you for taking time to watch.

You should checkout Rick Beato's interview with metheny, if you haven't done so already.

[@stanleypatrick6498]

Genius

Great to see the love for PMG and PM. Do you have a link to the original video?

[@onestarnus8657]

As pertaining to Pat Metheny's fashion, as you can see by the pictures, even as a little boy, Pat Metheny moved himself out of the way so the music that he gives to the world will flow through him. But still from him.

[@johnsullivan311]

dude check out playing for a change all along the watchtower for an unusual take on the song and music in general

[@Ollie-h1n]

The Brazillian influence is obvious. Less well known are the wordless vocals and instruments of the Indians (las indigenas) of the Highlands of Peru and Chile. And the Indians of Guatemala. The marimba especially

"Pat don't know how to dress" 😆

Perhaps - but when he's got that black and white horizontal striped short on, you know he's gonna bring it.
