PAT METHENY GROUP's performance in Japan in 2002, where they showed off their abilities as the strongest performing group, is also memorable. The best pro shot with that wonderful performance running through your mind has been decided to be released. This work was filmed at the “Vienne performance on July 3, 2002.” This is a multi-camera professional shot taken when he appeared at “VIENNE JAZZ FESTIVAL” held at a theater in ancient Roman ruins. The quality is excellent. Since it is an analog broadcast of the era, I hesitate to call it "completely official!" in the original title of the digital era, but if it was by the standards of the time, I would scream with all my might. In particular, the freshness of the master is overwhelming, and the coloring is vivid and vivid with no dubbing marks or deterioration over time, and the sense of stability is also great. It is so beautiful that it seems as if the broadcasting waves from that time are being received exactly as they are today. And, what is depicted with its visual beauty is a stage that revives the performance in Japan in 2002, but does not stop there. Even at a quick glance, the stage set up in Roman ruins is mysterious, and there is plenty of openness outdoors. However, more than that is the show itself. Here, let’s organize the set while comparing it with the official video “SPEAKING OF NOW LIVE” of the Japanese performance. 70s/80s・BRIGHT SIZE LIFE: Bright Size Life (★)・OFFRAMP: Are You Going With Me?・TRAVELS: Song For Bilbao・STILL LIFE (TALKING): Minuano (Six-Eight) (★)・Others: How Insensitive since the 90s・IMAGINARY DAY: Into The Dream／The Roots Of Coincidence・SPEAKING OF NOW: Proof／As It Is／The Gathering Sky A song that wasn't there. ...and it looks like this. ``Into The Dream/Are You Going With Me?'' with its magical Picasso guitar sound and ``The Roots Of Coincidence'' with its hard edges are both wonderful, but the most delicious one is 2, which I couldn't see at the Japanese performance. song. This is not just a rarity, but a real highlight of the show. In "Minuano (Six-Eight)," the light ensemble and multiple choruses intertwine to create an indescribably delicious mood, and the most powerful song is the famous song "Bright Size Life." On this day, it is a six-person formation like the Japanese performance, but in this song, Metheny, his ally Antonio Sanchez, and the master Richard Bona are the only three people and they perform tremendously. The ensemble is truly unique. Bona, who had played percussion and guitar in other songs, took up the bass and spun phrases one after another that were rumored to be ``the second coming of Jaco,'' and Sanchez responded with sharp-eyed and nervous fills. Although it seems like both of them are just playing randomly, they strangely work together as an ensemble, and the excitement builds even more. Metheny is able to follow such a close relationship between the two with such passion...it is truly the biggest highlight of this work. On February 10, 2020, Lyle Mays, the originator of PAT METHENY GROUP, passed away. The possibility of resurrection was forever closed. Their history will come to fruition in the next work ``THE WAY UP'', but what is shown in this work is just before that. This is a gorgeous stage where the evolution as a performance group was about to reach its final stage. A piece that not only reminds you of the wonderful Japanese performance, but also lets you enjoy the ensemble even more with the finest multi-camera professional shots.
