    For me this is one of the ten most beautiful musical incursions in the history of modern jazz and this record, which I have on vinyl is a masterpiece of Jazz... Lyle is a genius and it's no wonder he paired it with another "point out of curve"...the genius Pat Metheny.

      C'est un sentiment fabuleux de se dire que tous les mélomanes de la planète sont frappés de la même manière à la première écoute d'un morceau de Lyle. Il avait cette force de pénétration des âmes et des coeurs dans tout ce qu'il composait. Depuis trente ans que je l'écoute lui, et que je regarde et entend toutes celles et ceux qui l'aimaient parler de sa musique ou la jouer, je ne me lasse pas de découvrir chaque jour d'autres êtres humains dotés eux aussi de la même chose que moi, cette capacité à ressentir purement et simplement la musique. C'est sans doute cela qu'on appelle "être touché par la grâce".
      Et le plus beau, c'est que ça s'applique à une quantité non finie d'artistes comme Lyle Mays qui ont vécu, vivent ou vont vivre sur cette Terre avec le même bagage émotionnel.
      C'est ce constat de notre unicité qui est le moteur de mon existence. Si nous sommes si nombreux à ressentir cela, alors il y a de l'espoir pour toute l'humanité, n'en déplaise à celles ou ceux qui en doutent encore.
      Votre mère est humaine, à l'évidence, et je suis heureux pour vous et pour elle.

    Ascent - to the higher realms, just like the maestro himself. RIP dear Lyle, your transcendent music has been the soundtrack to my life. Bought this album new in 86 - still have it. Crying nonstop since I found out, but equal tears of sadness as joy that this music will always be with us, to awaken us, to inspire us to be our best, most creative & most beautiful selves. Peace to all.

    RIP Master Mays... Simply Amazing Beauty of Soul. Yesterday, my Son heard for first time Lyle's Music and His Eyes were looking at a point Where he Look when He's Surprised for something and said: "Now I really Want to Hear More of Him !" And He Stopped To Worry About my Grief and True Sadness.
    66 YEARS OLD !!! Maybe There's People that Must Never Die...

    I didn’t understand what this music was meant to signify until one day it hit me right between the eyes. Incredible piece performed by consummate musicians. I can almost imagine a soul traveling through space to reach it’s resting place. The guitar solo is like nothing else I have heard before or since, propelling the band to an incredible crescendo and then to the inevitable calm. Sumptuous, wonderful music that always moves me. RIP Lyle, a genius behind our capacity to understand.

    • @Elixear
      @Elixear Před rokem +1

      En plus de la facture invraisemblable de la composition, Lyle s'était entouré d'une poignée des meilleurs musiciens de la planète, parmi ses amis de surcroît, pour interpréter cette pièce magistrale. Il est fort probable que personne d'autre que Bill Frisell n'eut pu la jouer avec autant de justesse et d'intensité émotionnelle.
