In 1965 I owned a place in Torrance Ca called the Doll House. I got tired of local bands and put a group together. I called it the Frank Four. Larry was still in high school and wore a long hair wig when I hired him. During the breaks he would go into my office and practice. When he wasn't eating or sleeping he was practicing. He became number one call for all the recording companies before he retired. He aslo played with some heavy jazz groups.
Yes he used to play with a dear friend of mine Jazz Pianist John Wood down in Venice Ca at the club called "The Seachest!" I was in my late teens too! If you appreciate Good Jazz Music and the Guitar Lovers can rock with this for sure! I'm from Santa Monica and Venice Ca I grew up with my Dad listening to all the Jazz Greats and I hated it as a kid but became In Love with Jazz at about 17 and listen to it most everyday
I'm a guitarist, but always listen to the other instruments. And, on this tune........Bob James is just killing it on piano! Just check out those passing chords!!!! And, yes........Larry can play his ass off, too!
I could do this one, but not everything that Larry plays. He has a seemingly infinite chord voicing vocabulary. Watch what he did with Les Paul. That was jaw dropping.
Yah. Larry Carlton's was the guitar work on Steely Dan's "Kid Charlemagne" from their 1976 LP The Royal Scam. A fine set of musicians those Steely's...
Larry Carlton is my favorite guitarist,I think the key to he's genius is,he's a great band member. All these guys in the band are equals,they all contribute to the one sound which in turn creates the Blues Force. I love the space they make for each other and the listener. Thanks for posting this.
First time I have listened to Larry, recognise the custom guitar that Gibson made but never knew his music until now. Nice and easy relaxed laid back groove!
I am so amazed how Larry can play simultaneously pick and fingers in a so accurate manner ...managing everything without a singe false note Beeing able in the same time to give great effects when strocking the strings with his fingers and producing sharp tones with the pic or even the thumb.....also the way he bends simultaneously multiple strings to produce more deepness to the sound.He is just incredible especially with heavy gage electric Daddario strings !
La perfección existe, y Blues Force con Fourplay : Larry Carlton. Bob James. Nathan East y Harvey Mason son los gestores, escuchala una y otra vez y confirmaras que la perfección SI EXISTE, abrazo para ellos, gracias por su música, ojalá alguna vez visiten Lima Peru, lo esperaremos con los brazos abiertos
That's Powerful What You Just Said Bc It's a fact I'm from a family of music! The only thing is.. All 10 of us siblings sang and years later can still hold a tune! The only one who played was Mom on piano and We Always knew she was telling a story and we were in tune with her bc we knew our Mother on and off the Piano in the zone! After that we all learned that musicians are telling a story, just as you said bc I could not have put it better! You most often see Guitarist's mouths moving but this is the first Pianist who I've seen with this kind of musical expression except Moses Tyson Jr on organ he makes the organ do his talking Pull him up right here on you tube This man is a BADD The song is titled Pray for me Check it out
Thank you for Spitting Larry out this Way at 1st it was like but I Wasn't sure but when I Heard Sunrise that was it Thank you Baby Really Enjoy Them💋👀🖤😊
I KNOW wasn't that the BEST? The freeze comes from the fifties and who would'a thought to do that on stage. Brought the house down didn't it. SO ARTISTIC!!!!
Well this is the 3rd time I have woke up today it is 10:06pm Monday night That's the Blues Larry plays the Blues the band is Awesome Thank you Kostas 💋👀🖤😊
I listened him in Buenos Aires one month ago. As good as usual. I met him at the lobby of the theater, We talked for a while and he was very kind and gentle. And, of course, I have a picture with him...
Went to high school with Nathan and always so cool to see/hear him in action.

PLAY IT
PLAY IT LARRY ❤❤❤
That’s the life of an incredible player…thank you for that story🎸
There is everything in Larry s solo, Emotion, share, strength, creativity, WHAOOOOO
Wonderful mix of blues guitar and strong but subtle piano genius, blended beautifully by bass& percussion.They do not "overplay" one another.Superb!
Yeah man they nailed!
I'm a guitarist, but always listen to the other instruments. And, on this tune........Bob James is just killing it on piano! Just check out those passing chords!!!! And, yes........Larry can play his ass off, too!
When Larry Carlton plays...who gives a shit about "passing chords."

It's Bob James. He always kills it!

❤@@guitarman6742pp q
I died musically many years ago...Thanks Larry ...!!!! I'm alive !!!..
Damn I Love Larry's playing !!!
The "pause", alone. should win some kind of an award. L.C. remains at the top f the heap.
Phenomenal piece of jazz...it’s going straight Into the memory bank
Sometimes a performance is so good that words don't do justice in describing it. This is one of those performances.
Love this blues playing. Guitar is great! Love it!❤️💕👍
He is one of the best, and has played with some of the all timers!!
Larry...you are GREAT.
Man this is the very definition of playing guitar so beutiful he may look abit like larry david but boy can he play love it.
I love it when musicians feel it. Yes they cut loose and rode that wave together sweetly. Fourplay. Outstanding foursome.
Mr 335,,, goosebumps,,,, he does make,,, with that guitar,,,,!
Wish I could be that cool just once!
Carlton always has a great tone
And it certainly appears that he has his Howard Dumble amp with him here ......./s
larry really put his all in this solo, just excellent
Awesome! As good a blues guitarist as there is out there. Larry's intent is to have his guitar tell a story and, man, he makes that 6 string emote.
will be seeing Larry in Gloucester, MA, tomorrow night. Should be a great night of music!!!
Fortunate enough to have seen this guitar player in concert a few times...incredible.
Great performance, love it so much.luks
Just love this Ensemble. Especially the Bob James Four Play Sound. All so Amazing together ❤
Dis this group of musicians ever record together - Larry, Nathan and Bob --- magic!
+AlanSturgess Look for Fourplay CD's. Don't forget Harry Mason on drums :-)
Always enjoyable groove and music journey . Love that part of Larry , the bass is a big part as well as the piano . So so cool 🇨🇦
Listen to the audience respond after Larry's solo is finished,,,,, nice!!!!
Watch for it when they go into the "freeze" OMG!!!! Brings the house down when they groove out of it! Brilliant! Purrfect Timing!
ManyThanx Wow!!!!,? Truly Epic!!!!!! Kicks My Ass!!!!! Wow Cheers! From Costa Mesa Ca!!!!
perfect band
This is an awesome jazz session by Fourplay.
Smoothie
sweet lord - that is outstanding. i didn't want it to finish
I really like this!love the Steely Dan vibe!
Yah. Larry Carlton's was the guitar work on Steely Dan's "Kid Charlemagne" from their 1976 LP The Royal Scam. A fine set of musicians those Steely's...
This is Fourplay when Larry played the guitar. Bob James piano; Nathan East electric bass; Harvey Mason drums and, of course, the great Larry.
Man, Larry is making love to that 335 !!! :O
Awesome way to end my Sunday! Very nice. Beautiful song performed by great musicians. Lots of respect for Larry.
So good.. Didn't find a word
Larry is always right on time eith the greatest licks. The man can play what more need be said. Silk.
Man these guys make tasty jazz/blues fusion music. Love Larry's guitar. The rest of the band is tight, smooth and deadly. Fantastic.
Larry Carlton is my favorite guitarist,I think the key to he's genius is,he's a great band member. All these guys in the band are equals,they all contribute to the one sound which in turn creates the Blues Force. I love the space they make for each other and the listener. Thanks for posting this.
I get goose bumps every time I watch this. Magnificent!
Wow!!! Beautiful!
One of the best "supergroups" of all time. You know how tight they are when they stop in sync like that; could listen to them for days on end!
Larry is excellent. Doesn't get the recognition he commands. Was into jazz guitar players at 13. A musicians musician.God bless Larry Carlton.
First time I have listened to Larry, recognise the custom guitar that Gibson made but never knew his music until now. Nice and easy relaxed laid back groove!
Watch Larry Carlton with Les Paul the first number (old central). That is REAL Jazz
Or cop his early work with Steely Dan, as well.
Yea Larry great guitar stuff and a great band...
I am so amazed how Larry can play simultaneously pick and fingers in a so accurate manner ...managing everything without a singe false note Beeing able in the same time to give great effects when strocking the strings with his fingers and producing sharp tones with the pic or even the thumb.....also the way he bends simultaneously multiple strings to produce more deepness to the sound.He is just incredible especially with heavy gage electric Daddario strings !

That ES 335 and him were made for each other. What command, touch, know how…..the guy's Yoda.
You da Man Larry! Great band too.
I confess to having never heard of Larry Carlton until today; mind blown
Outstanding!
This song brings me so much happiness.
People, who do not play any instrument, do not know, that a musician does not just play...he is telling a story to you
And for Larry, what a story!!!! God bless him!!!
They don't? Everyone?
That's Powerful What You Just Said Bc It's a fact I'm from a family of music! The only thing is.. All 10 of us siblings sang and years later can still hold a tune! The only one who played was Mom on piano and We Always knew she was telling a story and we were in tune with her bc we knew our Mother on and off the Piano in the zone! After that we all learned that musicians are telling a story, just as you said bc I could not have put it better! You most often see Guitarist's mouths moving but this is the first Pianist who I've seen with this kind of musical expression except
Moses Tyson Jr on organ he makes the organ do his talking
Pull him up right here on you tube
This man is a BADD
The song is titled
Pray for me
Check it out
Larry on fire ❤
I do play an instrument, but it seems a little snooty to say non-musicians can’t understand music.
Just so tasteful. Beautiful playing, Carlton is a monster!
Lee Ritenour is Better
Silly remark...they both can play, they are each unique
yeah that's true, but Lee Ritenour is better, and that's all their is to it!!,
what a stupid thing to say ! with musicians of that carat it's absurd to claim that one is better than the other.
Carlton pulls off licks that are outside of Lee's repertoire, and vice-a-versa. At their level, it's not "better" or "worse."
Truly cool composition too ...!!
Shame Shame Shame Damn Damn Damn That's Some Amazing Grooves Vibes and Larry is The King💋👀🖤😊
Muy buen blues y una mas que excelente formacion una gran banda...mencion aparte para los excelentes solos de Carlton!
Wonderful musicians.
Never heard of this man before but are glad that I came across him and wonderful music wow wow wow wow just magnificent can't get enough of it.
Thank you for Spitting Larry out this Way at 1st it was like but I Wasn't sure but when I Heard Sunrise that was it Thank you Baby Really Enjoy Them💋👀🖤😊
the world needs more music of this calibre

These guys are having such fun! They've all got their music/sex faces going. :)
I love it when they go motionless I just sat and laughed it was So Sweet Love it💋👀🖤😊

always love Larry's amazing guitar playing
larry is a fucking beast, that's just all there is to it
My heaven, should I get there, will be me just sitting and watching this magic
Speechless
The "freeze" at about 8 minutes in is hilarious!
harvey is such a smooth groove
Ларри как всегда великолепен!!! Приятно смотреть и слушать.
Larry was awesome on Ray Manzerek"s album "The Golden Scarrob" Anyone remember that? His solo on "The Purpose of Existence Is?" is phenomenal !
Wonderful song! Thanks!
Man thats cooking ...
Jeez, I just love Larry's playing... he so is the best player ever......
super
The pianist is as famous if not more, he is Bob James. Out of the world with his touch and go and sense.
absolutely agree...and his piano playing on"Restoration"(Rittenour and friends") is also not of this world!
Love their "freeze" at 7:38.
I KNOW wasn't that the BEST? The freeze comes from the fifties and who would'a thought to do that on stage. Brought the house down didn't it. SO ARTISTIC!!!!
Superb so cool so tastefully done four of the best on the planet
Well this is the 3rd time I have woke up today it is 10:06pm Monday night That's the Blues Larry plays the Blues the band is Awesome Thank you Kostas 💋👀🖤😊

Sounds great, I haven;t heard much from Larry lately.
I listened him in Buenos Aires one month ago. As good as usual. I met him at the lobby of the theater, We talked for a while and he was very kind and gentle. And, of course, I have a picture with him...
Amazing!!!!,music for the soul, taste and feeling
Gran guitarrista y la manera de fusionar el jazz con blues, un verdadero agasajo para los oidos
The concert he performed in Wellington NZ was real treat ! A true pro with the guitar.
One of my faves
Once again Bob James.and this group of musicians have merged different music genre’s (jazz, blues, rock, etc.) and delivered a masterpiece!
Yep! American music is the best music on the planet! Thank you Mr. 335......
That is true my brother
That is true my brother
