Pat my inspiration for 50 years...THIS IS A PEERLESS CIRCLE FOR ME HIS FINEST ALBUM

[RickCogley]

Just when you’re feeling down about how the world is seeming to get lost in the COVID chaos, you get to weep at the sublime beauty of a masterful cover like this one. I’m dumbfounded and uplifted. Thank you!

[scorsese]

Brilliant. Pat and Lyle would be proud. Rest in peace the great Lyle Mays.

[bcarpenter]

Goosebumps, tears, and gratitude. This is my favorite song. Period. Bar none. You honored Pat and Lyle with your cover, and the beauty of the video and the extraordinary settings adds to the intensity and good will of this song. The lift is real. Thank you!

When I first heard this by PM I fainted in the car while my Honeypot drove me by the Lake...now hearing this cover increases my fascination and pure love for music. I love the beautiful backgrounds. I truly wish I can be as musical. Thank you sooo much!!! ❤️

[carlosbeltran]

This is one of the finest composed songs ever recorded!!! A true gem that should be in everyone’s playlist.

[glentreb]

Lyle Mays would be very proud and honored! 👏🏼
This is the best and most musically accomplished “First Circle" cover version that I know of. Also better that some of Pat Metheny's more recent "First Circle" recordings. Congrats Michele!

[KKEV]

I am in tears..!!
Truly AWESOME!!!
Your work is PHEOMENAL !
THANK YOU..!!

[nocaramos]

Michele, now you just made me cry (but with a happy feeling). The best tribute I ever saw to a genius like Lyle Mays. Perfect perfect perfect! You are talent! I'm so happy to find your work!

[badidon]

C'est un peu comme un hymne à la beauté, la tolérance, la nature, Bref, magnifique boulot . Kisses from France ❤❤❤❤❤👍👍

I've seen so many Pat and Lyle shows over the years and this is one I always sing from the audience (Minuano is another one.) No one around me seems bothered because I'm not that bad and know them all by heart. What's more, most everyone around is also singing! So very well done, ladies and Michele. I pre-ordered and am glad to own the CD. Adoro la musica che esegui. Quindi molto ben fatto, Michele!

[bloodcarrot]

I almost cried watching this... This is a really beautiful cover of First Circle. Thank you Michele for making this music makes people happy. Lyle must be smiling in the heaven.

R.I.P. Lyle Mays.

Michele Fischetti, Beautiful!!! I absolutely love “The First Circle”. Your version is magnificent! I love that you can play so many instruments so well. Bravo! I have listened to “The First Circle” hundreds of times since it came out in 1984. I have never tired of it. Your version is exceptional!
Thank You! 🙏🏻

[moonkraab]

The absolute best thing to come from the covid pandemic here. Thank you all. Silver linings ❤

[benthead]

Brillant imagery from Michele for this piece of music.

[billvill]

Youtube....Shame on you for interrupting this masterpiece for a commercial....two commercials. Boooo!

[sjazzp]

Unbelievable cover, so good! Lyle must be smiling wherever he is! Fantastic job Michele and the rest of the team. I love this song and this video made my day between a bunch of wonderful emotions.

[phill.]

Better late than never that this showed up in my video feed! Yes, this is the best tribute paid to this PMG cut. If I played jazz piano, I would be reduced to nothing at the thought of tackling Lyle's solo here, but this genleman paid his dues and then some!! Anyone who covers this piece with its difficult time signature proves themselves as musicians, as you all have done. I will gladly buy your album, if only to help pay for the band's airfare to the exotic locales. 😅😅😅
All the best.
