I really enjoyed the podcast interview with Pat reviewing his childhood and rapidly riding career, and a shorter video on his musical approach to the guitar . It was nice to see his deep praise of Lyle. Anyways hard to imagine all this goes back almost 50 years starting with Univ Miami and Gary at Berkee. Pat has probably toured more than any musician in the world !!?

He is truly more than just one of the greatest musicians of our, or all, time. The word genius gets used too many times for those who are not really deserving. In Pat’s case it is very deserving. We are all very lucky to have his music and presence in our world.

Antoñete Apr 22 2018 at 6:16 PM	To be fair, I must thank Patsfan first :)
Antoñete Apr 22 2018 at 12:55 PM	Stevee23, you can hear or download the podcast here: https://www.arts.gov/audio/pat-metheny
Antoñete Apr 22 2018 at 12:54 PM	The podcast is just great as the interviewer does a fantastic job, and of course, as we all could expect, Pat answers also are. Thanks so much for the heads up, molesoulsandal

It was another confirmation of why I respect the man and his music so much. Also, in all good spirited nature, the only second time I have seen him a suit. Following him since 1976.
