Pat Metheny Group Lyle Mays/IL,USA 1982

A major U.S. tour starting in June 1982, the highlight of which was a representative line-up from the early days of Metheny, Mays, and Rodby, who were at their peak, with the addition of Brazil’s treasure Nana, is the oldest in the United States. PMG’s legendary performance, which performed for the first time at the outdoor music festival, Ravinia Festival, is finally here! ! It must be said that the jazz/fusion world is small compared to the rock world, which has a wide market, but the Pat Metheny Group in the early 1980s was the first to reach a realm comparable to the rock world. . You can hear the story of this time when it was so powerful that even birds in flight can be heard on the popular Grammy Award-winning masterpiece “Travels”, but the content is edited from live performances in various places and due to the recording time, only a portion of it can be heard. Only the contents were contained. However, as a fan, I would like to listen to the concert in its entirety without editing, which clearly captures the drama of the beginning, development, development, and conclusion, including the order of the songs. Here you can hear the whole story of the tour that will make you drink more, from the 1982 U.S. tour that held 80 performances in the United States alone, on July 19, 1982, the oldest outdoor festival in the United States that has been running since 1905. PMG’s legendary stage, which first appeared at the famous Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, Illinois, is recorded at the highest level by those involved, with each instrument clearly captured and with excellent balance. A 2-disc set has arrived, complete with a 2-hour encore, complete with the label’s own careful mastering and high-quality stereo sound! ! In 1982, all 80 performances were sold out at the time of reservation, making it a legendary “sold-out tour”, and the tour was held in the midst of tremendous popularity, responding to the huge response from the enthusiastic audience. Naturally, PMG also put on a passionate and passionate staging, using creative instruments such as Metheny’s Gibson semi-acoustic guitar, Ibanez 12-string guitar, Guild acoustic guitar, Roland guitar synth, and computer instrument Synclavier. Focusing on the special play, each member including the specially featured Nana, Mays, Rodby, Dan Gottlieb, who is the core of the PMG sound, is also playing their best, and you will be overwhelmed by their enthusiastic performance. In addition, the band ensemble by Aun, who has been practicing over 80 performances, is exquisite, and the performance is as perfect as if recorded in a studio, making it a wonderful performance that is worth listening to! The set list started with “Phase Dance” and included famous songs that were unique to this period, including “James,” “Off Ramp,” “Are You Going,” “Ozark,” “Close to Home,” and “American Garage.” I can’t get enough of the rare numbers that I can’t listen to! ! This tour was highly acclaimed and won the Grammy Award for Best Jazz Fusion Performance, and it was PMG’s most powerful performance, which made their reputation as a live band even greater than their studio recordings. , and the highest quality sound is a must! ! !
