ʻO Pat Metheny he mele jazz ʻAmelika, mea hoʻokani a haku mele. Ua kaulana ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi a he lālā o ka Pat Metheny Group kaulana. He paʻakikī ke wehewehe ʻana i ke ʻano o Pat ma ka huaʻōlelo hoʻokahi. Hoʻokomo nui ia i nā mea o ka jazz holomua a me kēia manawa, ka jazz Latin a me ka fusion.
ʻO ka mea mele ʻAmelika ka mea nona nā disc gula ʻekolu. Ua koho ʻia ka mea hoʻokani pila no ka makana Grammy 20 mau manawa. ʻO Pat Metheny kekahi o nā mea hana mua loa o nā makahiki he 20 i hala. He mea hoʻokani pila hoʻi ʻo ia i hoʻololi ʻole ʻia i kāna ʻoihana.
ʻO ka wā kamaliʻi a me ka ʻōpio o Pat Metheny
He kama'āina ʻo Pat Metheny no ke kūlanakauhale panalāʻau o Summit Lee (Missouri). ʻAʻole ia he mea kupanaha ua makemake ke keikikāne mai ka wā ʻōpiopio e hana mele. ʻO ka mea ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo kona makuakāne ʻo Dave i hoʻokani i ka pū, a ʻo kona makuahine ʻo Lois he mea hoʻokani leo akamai.
ʻO ke kupuna kāne o Delmare he mea hoʻokani pū ʻoihana. Ma hope koke iho, ua aʻo ke kaikunāne o Pat i kona kaikaina e hoʻokani i ka pū. ʻO ke kaikunāne, ke poʻo o ka ʻohana a me ke kupuna kāne i pāʻani ʻekolu ma ka home.
Ua lohe pinepine ʻia ka mele a Glenn Miller ma ka hale o nā Matins. Mai ka wā kamaliʻi, hele ʻo Pat i nā ʻahamele a Clark Terry lāua ʻo Doc Severinsen. ʻO ka lewa noʻonoʻo ma ka home, nā haʻawina pū, a me ka hele ʻana i nā hanana i kōkua iā Pat e hoʻomohala i ka hoihoi maoli i ka mele.
I ka makahiki 1964, ua hoihoi 'o Pat Metheny i kekahi mea kani - ka guitar. I ka waena o nā makahiki 1960, lohe ʻia nā mele mele o The Beatles ma kahi kokoke i nā hale a pau. Makemake ʻo Pat e kūʻai i kīkā. ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu, hāʻawi kona mau mākua iā ia i kahi Gibson ES-140 3/4.
Ua loli nā mea a pau ma hope o ka hoʻolohe ʻana i ka album ʻo Four & More a Miles Davis. Ua hoʻoikaika pū ʻia ka ʻono e Wes Montgomery's Smokin' ma ka Half Note. Hoʻolohe pinepine ʻo Pat i nā haku mele o The Beatles, Miles Davis a me Wes Montgomery.
I ka makahiki 15, ua minoʻaka ʻo ka waiwai iā Pat. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua lanakila ʻo ia i kahi haʻawina Down Beat i kahi hoʻomoana jazz lōʻihi. A ʻo kāna kumu aʻo ʻo ia ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Attila Zoller. Ua kono ʻo Attila iā Pat Metheny i New York e ʻike i ka mea hoʻokani pila ʻo Jim Hall a me ka bassist ʻo Ron Carter.
ʻO ke ala hana o Pat Metheny
ʻO ka hana koʻikoʻi mua i hana ʻia ma ka hui ʻo Kansas City. ʻO ka mea like, aia ʻo University of Miami dean Bill Lee i kēlā ahiahi. Ua hauʻoli ʻo ia i ka hana a ka mea hoʻokani pila, ua huli ʻo ia iā Pat me kahi hāʻawi e hoʻomau i kāna mau haʻawina ma ke kulanui kūloko.
Ma hope o hoʻokahi pule ma ke kulanui, ua ʻike ʻo Metheny ʻaʻole ʻo ia i mākaukau e komo i ka ʻike hou. E noi ana kona ʻano hana e puka mai. Ma hope koke iho, ua ʻae ʻo ia i ke dean ʻaʻole ʻo ia i mākaukau no nā papa. Hāʻawi ʻo ia iā ia i kahi ʻoihana aʻo ma Bosetona, ʻoiai ua hoʻolauna mua ke kulanui i ke kīkā uila ma ke ʻano he papa aʻo.
Ua neʻe koke ʻo Pat i Bosetona. Ua aʻo ʻo ia ma Berklee College me ka jazz vibraphonist ʻo Gary Burton. Ua loaʻa iā Metheny kahi kaulana ma ke ʻano he keiki prodigy.

ʻAʻole i liʻuliʻu ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o ka album kūhelu a Pat. Ua hoʻonui ka mea mele i kāna discography me ka hui ʻana ʻo Bright Size Life (ECM) ma 1976, me Jaco Pastorius ma bass a me Bob Moses ma nā pahu.

Ua komo pū ʻo Danny Gottlieb i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana o ka hōʻiliʻili. Ua lawe ka mea hoʻokani pila i kahi o ka mea hoʻokani pahu ma ka hapa mua o ka Pat Metheny Group. A ʻo ka hapahā o ka hui ʻo ia ka bassist Mark Egan. Ua ʻike ʻia ʻo ia ma kahi LP 1978 e ka Pat Metheny Group.
Ke komo ʻana i ka hui ʻo Pat Metheny
Ua hoʻokumu ʻia ka Pat Metheny Group ma 1977. ʻO ka iwi kuamoʻo o ka hui, ʻo ia ka mea hoʻokani pila a me ke alakaʻi hui ʻo Pat Metheny, ka mea haku mele, ka mea papa keyboard, ka mea hoʻokani piano ʻo Lyle Mays, ka mea bassist a me ka mea hana ʻo Steve Rodby. ʻAʻole hiki ke noʻonoʻo i kahi hui me ka ʻole ʻo Paul Huertico, nāna i hoʻokani i nā mea kani i ka hui no 18 mau makahiki.

Ua lawe ka album i ke kūlana 1 ma ka pakuhi Billboard Jazz a ua paʻi i nā palapala pop like ʻole. ʻO ka mea hope loa, ua loaʻa i ka poʻe mele ke kaulana a me ka mahalo.

- Offramp (ECM, 1982);
- live album Travels (ECM, 1983);

Ua hōʻailona ka moʻolelo Offramp i ka hiʻohiʻona mua o ka bassist Steve Rodby (hoʻololi iā Egan) a me ka mea hoʻokipa Brazilian ʻo Nana Vasconcelos (leo). Ua komo ʻo Pedro Aznar i ka hui ma First Circle, ʻoiai ʻo Paul Vertico ka mea pahu pahu i pani iā Gottlieb.
ʻO ka album First Circle ka hui hope loa a Pat ma ECM. Ua kūʻē ka mea hoʻokani pila me ka luna o ka lepili, ʻo Manfred Aicher, a ua hoʻoholo ʻo ia e hoʻopau i ka ʻaelike.
Ua haʻalele ʻo Metheny i kāna noʻonoʻo a hele i kahi huakaʻi hoʻokahi. Ma hope mai, ua hoʻokuʻu ka mea mele i kahi album ola i kapa ʻia ʻo The Road to You (Geffen, 1993). Aia i loko o ka moʻolelo nā mele mai ʻelua o nā album studio a Geffen.
I nā makahiki he 15 e hiki mai ana, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo Park ma luna o 10 mau album studio. Ua loaʻa i ka mea pena kiʻi nā helu kiʻekiʻe. Kokoke i kēlā me kēia hoʻokuʻu ʻana o kahi moʻolelo hou i hele pū ʻia me nā huakaʻi.
