This is my fav clip of room 335 by him:) I just went his show a week ago but he didn’t play this song. 7 yrs ago, I went to his show and got to meet him before the show. I requested him to play this song. He said yes! He came back on the stage after the show for encore. He pointed at me and played this song, which made my years 🥰
@@sumthinsumthin523 Thankyou so so much!! I'm calmly 41st bday today aswell and up early cooking so I'm very happy and blessed on this day!! God Bless You🙏🙌
Larry Carlton is my favorite guitarist. His studio version of this song is the best rock/jazz/blues/fusion guitar playing I've heard. I saw him in concert front row seat a few years ago in Akron Ohio. :)
@@I_Have_The_Most_Japanese_Music I loved Alan Holdsworth and Joe Pass. They were such great jazz players. In the rock world, Terry Kath and Mark Knofler along with Larry have always been my favorites.
Carlton....simply in a class by himself. Every note saying something, with absolute lyricism and taste. Perfect marriage of technique, emotion, and musicality. His work on the Steely Dan records is timeless and a hallmark of their sound. In these post-shred days, they don't make 'em like this anymore. God Bless Larry.
Check out Larry Carlton and the SWR big band Room 335....it's on you tube.....also the original off the album Larry Carlton 1978.....this version too much grease on the guitar......very young sounding!
I was 12 years old just learning the guitar, and my first teacher gave me a larry Carlton album to listen to for perfect technique. 43 years later still playing guitar but still chasing larry that technique! 4:22
July 22th, 1979, Casino de Montreux, 13th Montreux Jazz Festival. Larry Carlton and his band replaced Stuff with David Sanborn that night, it was a double bill with Al Jarreau. Phantastic concerts.
@@andreasnendza9667 the decoration behind Larry Carlton is that of the year 1979, it the show of July 22, 1979. Casino Lights was produced in Montreux 1981 and 1999.
So glad he's still with us:gave me so much joy in my childhood ( Crusaders:Spiral ).Thanks to the spirits you're still whit us,you're playing can't be missed,thanks for this.Bless you Larry.
I love these older videos of a younger Larry, when he played with so much more aggression and fire. He's still one of the greatest of all time. The GOAT. But he has nothing left prove. So I like his younger spirit when he did. So awesome.
I saw Larry 2 summers ago in the Milwaukee area and attended a guitar clinic he held before the gig. He' an incredible player and his son is an amazing bassist.
This is an awesome example of LC's lyrical soloing...every note chosen to perfection...and what an amazing sound with all that sustain. The chords and solo on this number remind me od Peg by Steely Dan. 10 out of 10.
The Bass player is on it! He's right there keeping up with keyboards, drums and of course guitar. And he does it! All The Way To The End. Wow...just WOW! They all sound tight!
This is no easy song to solo over and the tempo is real fast. Maybe my own personal recordings of this song comes little later in Larrys career, but still what a stunning performance by a young Larry Carlton at Montreux.
Ларри Карлтон - мастер, талант. Он занял свою нишу, где он принес максимальное счастье в музыке людям, доверившимся ему. То, что он создаёт, способно доставить не только наслаждение, но и сделать счастливым, хотя бы на время. Ларри мастер и я рад, что он есть. Он работает в своем ощущении Мира, и есть множество людей созвучных ему. Наверное это и есть счастье, для него и для нас...
Saw him play Point It Up in the mid 70's live with the same band, except for keyboards I believe, at The Baked Potato in California. I stood for 2 shows within reaching distance of him. I have never seen anything like it on guitar in my life and I've seen many players. Pops broke a string during one of the shows.
Larry Carlton was the most in demand studio players in l.a because he could play jazz and rock. He played on the later Steely Dan records and ended up producing them. Most famous for the hill street blues theme song.larry played the original the solo on the original theme song then they had another guitarist play the opening solo. When everybody else was trying to sound like the stones or led zep Larry was what I was influenced by the most.if you think that everything he writes sounds like sitcom crap then you obviously never listened to the whole album. What was great about the 70s was there were so many bands who wrote all their own stuff. A lot of them only had a couple of good songs on them but there was a lot that may have had 2 hit songs on them but after listening to the whole thing 2 to 3 times you realized they were all good. Nowadays you don't have that because the record label hires outside writers who will write a trending style song that the artist is thinking this ain't me but contractually I have to. The band Kansas was in debt to their label for 1million until they had a hit song.they were unique sounding but the label new a big hit was coming. I think left overture was there third album not sure then the hits started coming. These guys were selling out shows long before they had a hit. Steven Tyler tried to cut the power to the stage while they were starting to play and the bass player took off after him and stopped him. If you opened for aerosmith and you band was hot that night you had to watch out for Steven Tyler. Record labels aren't interested in artist development anymore they are to greedy like the rest of corporate America. If you really want to know which albums had all good songs and worth 2to3 listens and then you'll understand
I used to own a lot of Larry Carlton on cassette loaded on the sony walkman imagining how the bands performance would be. Here I am watching the video on my phone and expressing my comment!! How times have changed!!
Yes,, Larry is the most remarkable guitarist of all time! No exaggeration there! More than 100 Gold records, tv theme show songs, movie soundtracks, and just one heck of a shiver deliverer! LOL!
Seen Larry several times in past five years, twice at the legendary tiny club The Baked Potato in LA, where he, Ritenhour, Robben Ford and Steve Lukather used to play after their session work in the 70s and 80s. Larry always closed the show with Room 335, explaining the difference between it and SD's "Peg," which hysterical also a shift to a different key.
The bassist is Popwell? He is got this monster two or three finger rolling attack with his right hand! Very rarely do you get to hear a funky bass player go full out on the groove LIVE behind a soloist. From 2:38---5:50 is pure magic. Thanks for the submission! Larry is smiling and obviously enjoying the stage! Good performance for the man and his Gibson ES 335.
The problem here was Larry played so fast on the preceding song that he caused a rift in the time-space continuum. It affected half the stage, hence some of the mics went about 40 milliseconds into the future, and the rest stayed where they were. This is what caused the "flamming" sounds of the drums, as well as the psychedelic sound of Larry's guitar. Yep, his riff caused a rift.
+William Scull i just heard this for the first time and i can verify it takes you safely through the black hole time warp continuum. some kind of reverb or delay effect i suppose.
It sounds like the slap back echo was added after the fact because the drums have it too. Larry Carlton has always been a hero to me. There's so much negativity in many people but the fact remains that this music made people feel good, no matter what people say. This scene is from a world that does not exist anymore. The 70's had their turmoil but it was like a picnic compared to today's world.Warner Bros signed Larry Carlton after he played on many of his generations top hits and the going was good with the music industry back then. There was a music industry where you could have a successful career playing instrumental music and the big labels were involved.
Very well said Marc! The problem with people is ...... PEOPLE! We are always killing the goose that lays the ~Golden Eggs~ sadly, and we ruined the music business by being selfish and greedy, and when Napster came out, and maybe there was another one just before it,, I knew it was going to spell the death knell for control over music in general! Sure enough ...... look at where music is today!!!! More crapola than Victrola!!! LOLOL!!!!
Love Larry. Listened to him in the 1970s and 80s. One of the songs I tried to play. Had his album too. Man, this guy is so friggin' good. Top studio musician, and yes those are the rhythm lyrics to Peg, which everyone already knows, if your'e a Carlton fan. Live on Crusader!
This looks like around the time when I saw him many times at the Roxy, Golden Bear, and even the Barn at UC Riverside. These shows were fantastic. He along with Ritenour, Benson, Lukather, were my favorite guitarists.
**Not everyone has heard of him but I'd say he definitely crack-ed into the top 10 list of best guitarists. He's a very, valium good guitarist! Some people opine about his work with Steely Dan being his best, and I'd opium that too. Some folks say that Clapton was the best of that era, but IMO DMT, he is way, QUAA(lude) better than Eric Crackton!**
Don't be sorry. As probably the most popular session guitarist of the 70s and 80s, it probably was him playing on all those themes and intros. Why? Cause he's f'in great!
Gimme a break, 335 was a rock sound . Larry controls the gain so amazingly . Most bop heads could never palm mute the strings , to keep the sound clean with this much gain . That is why he is on sessions, and the guys who " would never" aren't And what this is , is bringing bop lines to a rock jazz country and blues audience .
