Not anymore..... There's a video out there where he runs through his guitar collection - not as many as you'd think. He pretty much only keeps the ones that really click with him. The 24 fret 80s wonders are gone.
I met Larry at a workshop. He is amazing and such a kind soul. I never got to meet or see Tal; that would have been amazing. Two legends and masters of their craft sharing their love for the music. It doesn’t get better than this.
Wow! What a perfect combination! Larry ripping it up with that Dumble amp sound, and Tal on traditional jazz sound and great chord work and chordal solos!
Larry, what incredible tone--just the right amount of gain and the incomparable Carlton touch. And of course, the magnificent chord melodies of the great Tal Farlow. What a treat for us guitarists!
Man oh man. I got to meet Larry at Cory Wong’s summer camp in August. After his performance me and some friends introduced ourselves to him in front of the stage. I told him how much his melodic soloing had influenced my own playing and he was very polite and engaged. After our short conversation I hopped up next to him on the stage for a picture with him and I’ll never forget his “Geez son, you’re a tall drink of water!” Such a special moment :)
@awesomewelles90 Larry Carlton just happens to be one of, if not, the BEST overall guitarist ever! Based upon the fact that he plays virtually EVERY STYLE OF MUSIC, and does it with a feel and technique that nobody else can hope to do! If you're a guitarist, you'd know that what Larry does with his left hand is so difficult for most people, his technique involves string bending, sliding into and out of target notes, and a variety of vibrato styles, giving the listener the warm shivers of bliss!
I know he’s Mr 335, and rightly so, but I love this period when he was playing Valley Arts strats and teles. He has sick tone, no matter what he plays. I highly recommend the live album, Last Nite, for some of this fender sounding mojo. So good! 🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥
Tal Farlow was nicknamed "The Octopus" because his hands were so large. He loved to use his thumb to sometimes grab both the E and A strings. What a great player he was!
Did not disappoint awesome performance by two masters! The joy they express and admiration each has of each other says it all, haters will hate but these two are greats!
This was my first vid ever watching the much talked about Larry Carlton. Now I see why! So melodic.....and what a tone! Cheers to the great Tal Farlow as well~!!!!!!
People will say anything, but just take a good look at how Tal is looking at Larry. It's like he's saying, "wow, you're getting a modern sound with a famous Jazz song. I know you can do it BOTH ways, and I am amazed by your talent." Larry, I'm sure, off the record, played a bunch of bebop with Tal before they did this show. Larry is amazing. He could play equally aw well as the rest of the great in bebop jazz, and he could do it the traditional way, but he wanted to create a modern sound. He hide the other stuff. lol. I used to tell trash talkers, GO SEE HIM LIVE! Larry is right up there with the very best of the best, but he also ventures out into other styles. I have a lot of respect and admiration for this man. He's one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Excellente version instrumentale de MISTY .le mélange du son jazzy de l'archtop et du solo agréablement saturé et plus aigu est très plaisant .. Larry est un très grand !!!
Larry is playing in his Jazzy/Rock style which is awesome, but, make no mistake, he was very capable of playing like the legend Tal too. Larry is also a Jazz Chord Master.
man.... I'm not up on jazz but the older guy just smoked 99.9% of all guitarists. Most don't know how to play more than a maj or min chord. he's playing chords and melody simultaneously AND complex chords to boot. hahahhaa man, that's pretty amazing.
@@larryz3985not at this level. Hendrix was more of an improviser in the rock genre. He was great and just good at feel but jazz is different. It take getting a special feel. Purel6 Rock players tend be more brutish and hard headed too. I love the music, but if you want to talk about level of difficulty, then Jazz is the most difficult to master. There are great guitarist who can't play bebop style Jazz. I learned how to play it from a Pat Martino and Joe Diorio study guide.
Yes......Tal is great, he is over, much miles high, tham Larry, the new jazzy player, play melody, just like a horn or other melodic instrument, but guitar is like piano, melodic, harmonic and rhythmic too. So the old jazz guitarits, play lines or chord chains, making several voices, because have, a large musical vocabulary.
mauro fallas you are a moron. Tell Farlow is an icon for his time. So too, is Larry Carlton. It is extremely stupid to waste your time trying to compare players from different eras. In this video Carlton is playing a custom-made Valley Arts Strat. The sound as recorded sounds terrible. But I hope you're smart enough to take that into account before you criticize one of the worlds best guitar players. Please take some time to look at some of the other videos of Larry Carlton on TH-cam and when you can play like him, then you can make criticisms. Until then just go back to sleep.
What you mean big brain, I dont talk about who is better, Tal is better tham everybody there. Is about of the way of play, the guitar is not only a notes instrument, like flute or trumpet. You can improvise ussing chords, like Tal does. Is very poor the Larry part. About the guitar, Mr 335, as you know he is known, appears with a Strat style, in a jam sessión. Is rare, he play always his Gibson in this music wave. But he can play better, I know, maybe the Farlow legend opaque his bright. Larry is a very comercial player, his records and cd´s are the proof that. Tal is God, with Pass, Hall and others in the Olympians in the sky.
I don't think you can compare the styles really. Farlow plays in a much more classical jazz style, whereas Carlton plays with a more jazz blues orientation. Two different takes form two different guitarists.
Larrry's musical playing here is Very NICE. He's playing what a sax player might normally do - the jazzy melody with some bluesy twists. The magic in this vid is the historic pairing of Larry Carlton with the late, great jazz guitar pioneer Tal Farlow on the other guitar. Tal ain't flashy, but his chord-melody playing is beautiful, piano -like and super jazzy. Without what guys like Tal did in the 1940s/50s- you don't get the 'newer' jazzy guys like Larry...(who can do chord melody too).
Now I really wonder what 47 Vinegar Joes have discovered to put on a long face, because to me and many others, this seems as close to perfection as humans ever can come. Top notch game between the two guitars, very efficient rhythm section, elegant presentation, what more do you need, unless a mysterious Veronica Lake-ish figure who starts singing in the next song with a velvet voice "I'll take romance"....
Sort of a rock single-note bluesy improv take by Larry, nice. Tal has a sophisticated harmonic chord take, wow. Young John Pattituci on upright, who's on drums, Billy Higgins? Allthese guys are pros.
@paulj0557 I think it's a Valley Arts guitar. Steve Lukather of Toto and Los Lobotomy (amongst others), had a signature guitar made for him. In fact, Larry did get his own signature Valley Arts guitar as well, but it's a Tele styled body instead of a strattier one...
made it a point to see Tal when he came out of retirement and toured (with Red Norvo, iirc) around the time of this clip. Joyful jazz and a guitar lesson all at once
+edomite slayer I believe he was actually a sign maker by trade.. for some reason I always thought that had something to do with his hands being so dexterous.
And George Benson and Steve Lukather and Greg Koch and Dan Sawyer and Andrew Evatt and all of the other great guitar players whose names you can remember!
no, I was talking about the guy on the right (older). Carlton I know and yes, he is great. But the other guy is playing so many chords and now I see someone commenting with his name - Tal.
@@timwarneka5681 not really taking an interest. Jazz is just not really my thing but I can appreciate the practice they put in and how much more work it must take to get to a competent level.
Interesting tone on Carlton's custom Valley arts Strat. I wonder are the pickups active EMGs. That's what they look like, but they might also be Lace sensors, sameperiod roughly.
@frmadeira No? I guess once throw EMG's in a guitar it is no longer that guitar...so who made this one? Larry came to GIT in 84' and played through some Jim Kelly amps ( at least they were on the stage). I immediately went and looked for a Kelly schematic so I could hotrod my Fender Princeton that someone had already turned into a head. It just wasn't the same, but great design concepts from Jim. Playing this video through my 46' Wurlitzer 310 tone rotary tone cab. Guitar swirling is coOoOol!
The very accomplished 'old-timer' is Larry Coryell - lovely player - you should hear him do a nice solo playing only harmonics picked with his right-hand, fretting as normal with his left. Great player!
Looks like this was a fancy gig with tuxes and all. Anybody know when and where this took place. Have loved Tal for 60 years and Larry for at least 35.
Wow...Tal Farlow on the guitar was a wizard....wow...his comping was amazing....Larry Carlton was fine of course, but the real talent was in the comping!!
Tol Farlow, is a legendary guitar man.... should be mentioned in the title
+Paulo Fernando Martins u r right. Carlton has some hybrid strat, 24 frets - unnecessary :)
Not anymore..... There's a video out there where he runs through his guitar collection - not as many as you'd think. He pretty much only keeps the ones that really click with him. The 24 fret 80s wonders are gone.
IT'S A "VALLEY ARTS" CUSTOM STRAT STYLE GUITAR MADE BY MIKE MAGUIRE IN LOS ANGELES WAY BACK IN THE 1980'S!
I HAD A WHITE W/GOLD HARDWARE VALLEY ARTS STRAT ALMOST IDENTICAL TO LARRY'S VALLEY ARTS STRAT USED HERE. SADLY,,,, I SOLD IT! BUMMER!!!!!
Paulo Fernando Martins Tal. He played at my highschool before he died.Choicest chord work I ever heard. True Mastery
I met Larry at a workshop. He is amazing and such a kind soul. I never got to meet or see Tal; that would have been amazing. Two legends and masters of their craft sharing their love for the music. It doesn’t get better than this.
Wow! What a perfect combination! Larry ripping it up with that Dumble amp sound, and Tal on traditional jazz sound and great chord work and chordal solos!
Larry...Kid Charlemagne, Misty, WOW 🤩 awesome tones, melodic lines with nuances, bends..wow
Both TAL FARLOW and LARRY CARLTON are LEGENDARY GUITARISTS
Larry, what incredible tone--just the right amount of gain and the incomparable Carlton touch. And of course, the magnificent chord melodies of the great Tal Farlow. What a treat for us guitarists!
Larry and Tal obviously were having a ball playing together in the styles they chose so any negative comments are to be considered ridiculous.
2 guys making amazing music together in complete harmony with each others style. Obviously loving the chance to do this.
Man oh man. I got to meet Larry at Cory Wong’s summer camp in August. After his performance me and some friends introduced ourselves to him in front of the stage.

Please include Tal Farlow in the title! He truly is one of the jazz guitar greats!
Or you could repost the performance and include him in your title

Thanks for the bass playing, Mr Unknown, and the high-hat and brush work, Mr Drummer. It was brilliant as well!!!
I think that's John Patitucci on bass.
Thanks for clarifying. Yes, Tal Farlow's use of chord tones to carry the lead melody is just amazing.
I think that's Billy Hart on drums.
Mr Unknwon is John Patitucci, a fucking genius and legend
That's indeed Billy Hart.
One of the best compings i've ever heard!!!
How could ya not like that....WOW !!... Larry and the Tall Fellow...Tal.
thats top shelf stuff there man pure talent
Thank you for the inspiration, mr.Carlton.

Lol Jimmy hendrix did that and sang.... lamo
Mr Tal Farlow is legend. Larry Carlton can’t play jazz for shit
Two of the best players out there, Tal has now passed away.

I would imagine Mr C would be the first to think Tal should be included. Great interesting version & enjoyed Tals work as much.

John Patitucci on the bass
귀가 녹아버릴것 같아요 할부지..
A lot of people don't get it! This was a make it or break it performance for Larry Carlton. He needed this to kick start his solo career.
Love this. They're having a blast.

SIMPLEMENTE MARAVILLOSOS
My fav version of this jam that I've heard I think.
there was a great show called 'In session with' saw him with Joey Di Franco on keyboards what great series that was they Misty
Great guitar work! I like the swing! Yes, Tal should be in the title.
great tone from larry.
quels talents ces deux là , quelle entente , ça djazze verri goud
el mejor de todos. Emoción pura!!
Larry sounds great! Did some comercials with him and Karen Carpenter back around 1970 but he really cooks these days.
i used to play this song with my teacher
its great!
Esse cara é Uma lenda ,toca muito ,a banda é muito boa.
awesome guitar playing
Larry...Kid Charlemagne, Misty....WOW
Fantastic!
Great tone from Tal. Great band!
Larry looks to have had a significant "bump" backstage before this tune. Those were the days lol. Grindin em out!
Went to school with Larry and, Man has he improved !
What school was that?
Sort of a rock single-note bluesy improv take by Larry, nice. Tal has a sophisticated harmonic chord take, wow. Young John Pattituci on upright, who's on drums, Billy Higgins? Allthese guys are pros.
Looks like Billy Hart
awesome!!!!
The Student and the Teacher = Larry and Tal !!
THATS the meaning of freedom and happiness !
Valley Arts Strat & a Killer Mullet!🤘
@paulj0557 I think it's a Valley Arts guitar. Steve Lukather of Toto and Los Lobotomy (amongst others), had a signature guitar made for him. In fact, Larry did get his own signature Valley Arts guitar as well, but it's a Tele styled body instead of a strattier one...
Luv it !!!
love it!!

+edomite slayer I believe he was actually a sign maker by trade.. for some reason I always thought that had something to do with his hands being so dexterous.

Tal Farlow..... an incredible musician
He gets the most out of a note!😊
The Great Tal to boot! Wholly Schmokes!
I never thought I'd here Larry Carlton play anything awful!!! I swear I've listened to him for over 30 years ??????????????????????????
If you asked him to play death metal you probably wouldnt have liked that either.
They are all legends incase no one knows amazing rendition
exactly100%👌
*I like Misty any way you serve it and these two masters guitarist mixed in just the right amount of swing to make it enjoyable.
Great 👍,XX

Tal plays the shit out of this! I'm generally more into Larrys style but Tal's playing is too cool here. What a grin...
The very accomplished 'old-timer' is Larry Coryell - lovely player - you should hear him do a nice solo playing only harmonics picked with his right-hand, fretting as normal with his left. Great player!
It's actually Tal Farlow. He can play circles around Larry Coryell.

Larry could have done what Tal did. Larry is also a master at comping. Watch him play with Les Paul.
Tal Farlow is playing. What a nice surprise.
tal farlow is totally worthy of being mentioned in the title
A shame Tal Farlow is not mentioned.
Is there more footage from this nigh?! Please, thanks. :)
Patitucci on the upright!!! he should also be in the title!
Is that Bernard Purdie on drums and that is John Pattictuci on bass!
Yeah not putting Tal Farlow in the title is a shame and unforgivable, lol.
Yeah. I agree.
But did you know that Larry could've played it either way. Watch him jamming with Les Paul. Larry, in his own right, is the real deal man.
I'm gonna be looking for more Tal Farlow stuff.
De lo Mejor
What pick did Larry Carlton use often?
