Lee Ritenour is one of the most accomplished and technically proficient guitarists in the world, whose solo career, as a Jazz guitarist, has largely overshadowed his extensive session career. Ritenour played guitar on countless hit records (The Wall, Aja, Saturday Night Fever, and more). Today, we’re sitting down with Lee to reflect on some of his biggest sessions, talk guitar gear, and hear what it was like recording guitar for the world’s biggest artists of the 1970s and 80s.

Lee was one of the best known jazz-fusion guitar players in the 70's and 80's, and has maintained popularity to this day. He has headlined many jazz festivals all over the world, and is very popular in Asia like Japan, Korea and Indonesia. If you are comparing him with rock/pop stars like Eddie Van Halen or Clapton, of course he is less known, but that's a wrong comparison.

Mason, I like the way you conduct your interviews in a professional and profound way. In your interviews, the guest gets to speak (which is not the case everywhere). What's so nice about the Internet is that I learn so much personal information in the videos from musicians whose LPs I listened to 40 and 50 years ago. Lee is definitely one of them. Big thanks to everyone who makes these videos possible. It's a cultural and historical legacy.

Lee and I were with Duke Miller at the same time in the early sixties. Duke was an excellent teacher but it was different in those days and Duke demanded that students be able to read music. I stuck with it and he put me in a trio and got us our first gig at the Hollywood Teenage Fair in 1965. I'm not sure if Lee was in the trio 'cause my memory is kind of fuzzy. By the time Valley Arts started I was already studying with Ted Greene at Ernie Ball guitars in Tarzana. I have to hand it to my mother for finding the two best guitar teachers in the L.A. area for me: Duke Miller and Ted Greene. Guitar and music has been a life long journey and I'm still on that bus.

Great interview, I could do without the commercial though, but I guess it's part of the deal. I like that video because even if I know that Lee did it all as studio session player, I know him more because his amazing solo career, so it's great to revisit his life as session player. PS : as drummer I had the huge honour to work/tour with Lee, a real dream that to became reality.
@VertexEffectsInc
@VertexEffectsInc 23 дня назад
Roger, that's the cost of doing business and producing these things. Because we're using the original music, we don't have any other way to recoup the thousands of dollars in expenses to fly to LA, hire a crew, and edit the video without the help of sponsors. I try to keep it appropriate to either gear that the player being interviewed uses, or that we manufacture ourselves. It could be worse, if money were the only objective in a sponsorship selection, you'd be hearing ads for erectile disfunction and online therapy.

I didn’t mind the commercial parts at all since they are woven in in a natural way and as an extension of what came up during the interview. More of an updated elaboration than hard selling. The YT adds normally p..ss me off but this is done tastefully. Excellent interviewing style that comes from deep knowledge and great passion. Well done!

Mason, I waited… and I was not disappointed. 🙂 You have a real gift for these types of interviews. Thank you so much! I’m 62 so these guys are a huge part of my soundtrack. In ‘81 there were 6 of us young guitarists taking private lessons with Jon Herington in college and all we talked about was Rit, Larry, Luke, Dann, Dean, Jay… you get the idea. Keep up the great work!

Very cool. I enjoy Jon's content on Truefire. I haven't gotten to see him play with Stelly Dan yet but hopefully I can at some point.

Mason, This interview was wonderful, thank you. I smiled through the whole thing. I've been a Lee fan since the Rio album. I saw him and Wesley play and spoke with a few months ago in CA and many time over the years. I told Lee, the first song I ever wrote was called Lee's Tune. Cheers, Matt

I never knew how much a part of my life, from the 70s until now, Lee has been.. Quite the revelation, I didn't know any of these things you are covering in these videos.. Thanks for the hard work and great presentation! This is some of the finest material on RU-vid...

I remember reading about Lee in Guitar Player in late 70s when i was learning. Regret i didn't focus more on studio, he's an actual God and super humble, what an amazing musician

Great interview. I knew Lee was a Jazz artist because I saw him with Fourplay back in the early 90’s. But I didn’t realize he had done sessions or Pop/Rock music until much later on. I actually discovered that when I saw his name as the co-writer of Olivia Newton-John’s sultry hit “Tied Up”. He even did his own version of it in 1982 and it’s also great. Anyway he’s an amazing guitarist with an incredible resume and he also seems like a really nice guy as well.

Have been listening to Ritenour since the early 80s but never thought of him as one of the real studio cats back in the days until now when I have listen to interviews with Jay, Lukather etc.. He really must be one of the most recorded guitarists ever. Amazing stories and what a great guy he is 😍.
