Sirabhorn - Pat Metheny Group, Hamburg 1980

[@musiquesdereve188]

Pat Metheny guitar , Lyle Mays keyboards, Dan Gottlieb drum and Marc Egan bass. Great quartet

Excuse me, Rolling Stone, but here is your #1 guitarist.

[@bryanalfonso5700]

Lyle and Pat. Both so young and already possessing distinct voices - I loved it then and still do. I miss you Lyle. You're still my favorite.

[@yurolson]

Onkel Po’s club in Hamburg. A place with a vibe. Where Al Jarreau launched practically 5 years earlier. Why did that time create the music that transformed us all? Where did it go? No one in this video that night cared a kick about social media or what to E it was. We all just listened- and want d more. Some of even took up our own musical journey. Man it was great. I need to look forward but looking back teaches me so much - and it seems more alive than ever. I’m grateful I can studio this music now and learn from it. What a gift.

[@guitarttimman]

Metheny blew my mind with his performance of ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE. Great stuff.

[@josephzummo9685]

The BEST band I personally ever heard. This is a once in a lifetime original sound that is all theirs. Return to forever, weather report-like monumental. Mind blowing.

[@johnatchley9754]

Great addition to the compendium of Metheny Mays music. Early. Perhaps more jazz influence than later work like Minuano 6/8, First Circle and It’s Just Talk.

[@theodorwadorno]

I was there,they played 5 nights in a row,I hitchhiked to Hamburg from Frankfurt,saw them twice,slept in some hippie commune and even had a chance to talk to Pat at the bar...it was mindblowing...and we talked about Holdsworth btw still his best band

[@nicolettadonini3027]

Sirabhorn is one of my favourites I had the great pleasure 2 hear it live !!!

[@ceciliawestman]

Wow!!

[@ceciliawestman]

I heard them live -87? in Lund, Sweden. Beautiful!

[@aldo_pinheiro]

One of my favourite videos on KZbin. At least once I week I come here, get my shit together and head back to life. Just love how calm and uplifting it is...

[@VegasCyclingFreak]

I really liked this version of the Pat Metheny Group. They had a real chemistry together.

[@chrissupport]

Don't know how I missed this piece.. been following PMG/got most albums/CDs since American Garage.. guess it was overshadowed by something else. This is the original lineup when they were just "kids". THANK YOU for uploading this.

[@adgo22]

This was on Pat's 1st record..Bright Size Life..a trio record with Jaco and Bob Moses..the group never recorded it together..obviously played it live though..😉

[@cashberg]

Glad you like it. I have an audio bootleg of Pat's tour for the Bright Size Life album w/ Jaco, and they perform the tune there, too.

[@haysfordays]

Still my favorite lineup. I'm stubborn.

[@jerryjazzbo2845]

i can relate.

[@djclay33]

Saw this same line-up 8x in 7 years. Incredible.

[@peterfuller8229]

We are so effing lucky this video exists. I missed this lineup by one year (saw them in 1981) and as much as I love what followed, this lineup and this set are it for me.

[@butchjackson4428]

Man , their grooves were sooooo deep. Whadda band!

[@dougfrohman7130]

I remember seeing Pat early 70's. We sat on a rug on the floor and were looking up at the band playing. They were from that day to this among the very best musical groups playing today!

[@martinbe5111]

Few other songs have managed to give me boosebumps each and everytime I listen. Godlike music

[@adammcculloch5614]

Absolutely knock out. I read somewhere that PM finds KZbin vids of old gigs a bit galling but, honestly, this is remarkably good. Just a unique concept of sound and composition. This is 1980 but sounds just as good in 2019 as it did 40 years ago.

[@PeterBrown-mz4nv]

Is galling an actual word? I have to look that up.

[@toddoliver168]

this is so good

[@VERB65]

All the licks are here with this Lyle Mays solo.Want to hear the ultimate Lyle Mays? Then listen to "Mirrors of the Heart" RIP

[@shyamananda5818]

God I love this composition it says so much. They were definitely in the zone.

[@brusselslover9333]

I saw this lineup in Westport, CT, at Player's Tavern when Pat had just released the white abum in 1978. They were unbelievable!!!

[@Sax4Him]

I saw the same tour when it hit San Diego State College that year. Fabulous.

[@alainrosso568]

Is there a CD from this session?

[@sharonjones9769]

Breathtaking 💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@brianderekbass]

Great!! This brings back great memories of playing this music in Boston in the late 70's! And of course Pat's excellent Bright Size Life record. Thanks for posting!

[@tmaddrummer]

Man that was great to hear! Thanks Danny..... sorry for the loss of Lyle.

[@breizand]

He asistido a tantos conciertos de Pat...Pero cuanto me hubiese gustado estar en éste...Veo a esos integrantes del grupo, los que aparecen en la contraportada de American Garage y se me ponen los pelos de punta.

[@TeoEderle]

I think That's my preferred and loved Metheny's composition... he said that he don't know why and from where cames the idea & inspiration for this masterpiece... and he's sure that never he will compose another piece at this level... arrived directly from cosmos.... great & thanx for posted it

Thanks Cashberg, this video made me feel sure happy. I listen music from Pat since 1983, and that era was better than these days, less comercial

[@0megadwarf]

lyle killing it omg

[@bryanalfonso5700]

Amen. I miss hearing Lyle's deep solos on Pat's recordings. Nobody does a better job of creating a solo that tells a story and builds the story to a climax. His left hand playing compliments his right so well.

[@buffalobrown3000]

I was thinking the same thing myself!

[@UkuleleAversion]

Yeah, super underrated. If I heard him playing on a contemporary album it’d still hold up.

[@6ixtymiles]

Great to see the originals back in those heady days of PMG' s formative years. Those of us following them at this time were really intrigued as to what these guys were doing, but we had no idea what was in-store for us. Thank you Mark Egan (bass) and Danny Gotlieb (drums) for helping to crank this phenomenal musical juggernaut up. [!!]

Really...!!!

[@Vlogafogo]

Pat Metheny.... Lyle Mays.... Dan Gottlieb and Marc Egan... I was 13 years old while they were playing in Onkel Pö's in Hamburg.... too young to go.... but from 1985 till 1989 I didn't miss a concert they played in Hamburg even if there were 2 shows on the same day....

[@breathedeepnow1]

wow u r a lucky son of a gun!!!!!!

[@rogerdaltrey1]

I was there too. BSL was in heavy rotation for me. What a great time and place to be a teenager during. What an awesome pool table there at OP. It was a dinky place. But a temple to modern music. Saw a double bill: XTC opening for James Blood Ulmer. Plans For Nigel was epic and huge.

[@janbahan]

lov you pat straight from the heart.

[@canserrano]

one of the best performances of metheny, onkel pos 80!!!

[@Piero2374]

La profondità del basso di Jaco ti fa vibrare qualcosa tra gola e addome. Mark, tu hai iniziato con la tromba, poi sei passato al basso, Jaco è il basso elettrico! Comunque mi fa piacere ascoltare la tua interpretazione, apprezzo così ancora di più il Maestro..!!

[@nickfanzo]

Sweet progression.

I never knew they made four clones of Pat...and they used to play as a quartet!!

[@TheBalbs247]

hey rex. thats his old gibson es-175. i think its from 1958. He took out the bridge pickup as you can see, and the switch, just filled them in. He played this until the late 90s i think (along with his ibanez) but then retired it. He used flat wound strings and turned the tone almost all the way down. Add his true chorus sound invention and micro delay and you got the sound! @ Rex Shaffer
