My father took his life in November 2019. No note... somehow this song allows me to grieve his death in the reality of how this happened. He was a bitter man who lived a bitter life. My prayer is I can one day see him in Heaven in our perfection... I pray he will be there waiting on me...

"As Falls Wichita so falls Wichita falls" Is my favourite Metheny /Mays album and it still sounds great after all these years .

...Many, many well deserved observations have been made about Mr. Metheny, et al...Have never read one that would require disagreement...All of this generosity distills down to one Dynamic regarding him...Time does not dilute his Music...Time does not scar his Music...Time, if anything, has gently breathed a gorgeous Patina on his Music...What was written forty years ago, sounds as powerful, thought provoking and dreams of the Soul today...The colors of his music have always dazzled me...I see and feel new colors as the years quietly drift...I think that Mr. Metheny has a good Soul...Only a good Soul could not only create this Music...But desire to place it in the Wind & Clouds...And let it travel Hither & Yon...Pax.

This song really helped me through a bout of grief today

This is beautiful. There is a quite sense of loss in this song. As the sky turned gray, it's a reminder that nothing stays the same. The days will inevitably pass away but the melodies will linger on.

Pat is a master storyteller and such a romantic. All his music is deep and weaves a tale and often it’s about love and longing… always amazing

[@carloscanziani1644]

What a humble “omage” of this two players, for one of the best piano jazz players, chapeau

[@stuartdryer1352]

I have loved this music since it first came out in 1981. I actually got to see Bill play live in 1980. RIP Lyle.

one of the songs which will never be forgotten

[@matt-spaiser]

It's one of their most wonderful pieces of music. This piece was not a tribute to Bill Evans, but it was dedicated to Bill Evans, who died at the time this album was being recorded. They wrote this piece a few years before Bill died. However, Bill Evans is always present in Lyle's piano playing, so almost everything Lyle played is almost like a tribute to Bill anyway.

Loved this for 28+ years....pure genius.

[@MJEdit1]

Music is emotion, and never so much so than in this tune, IMO. RIP Lyle. And Bill Evans.

[@chrisjones98]
