I loved the interview and even
alittle additional info that I
did not know about Pat! I loved
the London concert, and the Pat
"unplugged"! That is why we love
you Pat!!!!

He used a number of animal sounds in concert when I saw him in 1986 on the Song X Tour.
I distinctly remember a lion, birds, the donkey among others. I was the jazz DJ on the college radio WUSO (Wittenberg University Springfied Ohio). My senior year Pat/Ornette Coleman/Charlie Haden...and the song X tour performed there in our Fieldhouse. I had the chance to interview Pat for about 20 minutes to play on my show the following days. I wonder if I still have that cassette someplace?

I thought the Blues Donkey was pretty cool too.

OMG - where can I hear more of the "Blues Donkey"?! Anyone know if Pat ever used that effect to humorous, er, effect, either in concert or in the recording studio? It’s particularly impressive to hear musical results like that after punching a few keys on ENIAC, as seen in that bygone interview excerpt.

Unfortunately, CBS videos do not seem to play in Canada.

yes...but, the "Blues" donkey? What was that an Apple II? I wonder if that was connected to the Synklavier? I’ve got to see where this idea goes.

I heard about the CBS piece on Pat Metheny radio; I watched it and congratulate Pat Metheny for his innovation. I am from Missouri too, currently living in Miami, and Pat’s music always reminds me of home, beyond the Missouri Sky.

Was fantastic piece! Is Pat a genius or
what??!!! Have seen the concert, love
the cd.. and even more this piece made
me be in awe of what Pat was able to
accomplish, or even have the
imagination to bring this to
fruition....wow! The ideas Pat has had
that led up to this even as early as
1986 is amazing .....(the funky
donkey!!) LOL...
Hope everyone gets a chance to see
this....

Really enjoyed seeing how the idea unfolded. Admittedly, I know a lot of Pat’s earlier work and didn’t dive into what "orchestrion" really meant. This just shows his mastery of creativity in his craft and never sitting back. Love that he keeps pushing the boundaries...

They showed parts of an earlier
interview w/ Billy Taylor.
Anyone know where we can find it
in it;s entirety?

Watched the excerpt. Great stuff and Pat’s so unassuming as an artist. No EGO. Love it!

Watched it...great little interview. Hopefully someone will see it who isn’t familiar with Pat and go out and buy the album. It was/is such an amazing project.

Excellent clip of Pat and the big rig. Even a year later, it’s nice to see how groundbreaking the whole thing continues to be. Can’t wait for the DVD!
