- Jeff Carlisi the guitarist and songwriter from 38 special performs Hold On Loosely for a guitar clinic in Texas. He still plays great and is a really down to earth guy too!
I’d rather listen to this than any shredder.
Jeff Carlisi is an underrated monster guitarist!!! His phrasing is what drew me in as a young teenage guitarist when .38 Special was on the radio everyday.....the good old days!!!! Such a great melodic player!!! Plays what fits the song perfectly!!!!😁😎👍🎸🎶🎵
This is one of the tastiest and melodic solos of all time. Just so memorable with how it follows the melody yet sings. Jeff should have more name recognition but real music fans know him.
His phrasing is amazing. You can't teach that. Some guys have it and most guys don't.
TouchéPadre yeah you can
You’re right
But it’s more about how much people like to ride the highway for the road. Not the car or the lights
Absolutely! Jeff Carlisi and Buck Dharma are favs!
The band hasn't been the same without Jeff Carlisi in it on lead guitar. I had a chance to see the original line-up of 38 Special in concert back in the 1980s, and have never regretted attending - what a fantastic show! I still listen to the band all the time and whenever their stuff comes on, I turn it up - way up!
i don't know if he got fired or if he just got disgusted. .38 needs something these days, IMHO .38 has gone middle of the road and just plays casinos . they do not even have guitar am,ps any more. they all bring their PODs and plug into the PA. they need to go back to real amps and call this guy up and make amends
Listening to that song allows me to time travel, I close my eyes and suddenly I'm surrounded by the people who loved me, back to the time when I wasn't alone.
@@SanFranciscoFatboy "Real amps" yeah, but didn't he use a solid state Peavey?
No. Peavey Mace VT series, 160w RMS, 6-6L6 Power Tubes, Solid State Pre-Amp. @@qua7771
One of the most singing guitar solos in rock history. I've come here 4 decades after this song came because I was determined to once and for all find out who the guitarist was who play it. I didn't know his name until today. It is a thing of magic and right up there with any great guitar genius you could name. And the recording engineer so many decades ago captured it with an amazing reverb sound that still electrifies the senses.
How can you watch this without getting chills??? Damn!!! Bravo Jeff....
I was just getting chills when I read your post!
Their guitar work is a lot more complex than most people give them credit for. It’s damn near genius 🔥
Totally agree. Well said my friend.
1970s classic rock. So glad I was a teen when the best music was written!!!
And especially attending all the concerts. And the cost never more than about $15 or so!!!!
Probably one of my favorite all time solos. It flows so well, and really fits the song well. Love it.
best Solo Fantasy Girl.... :)
Almost 30 years since that song came out and I still get goosebumps. He is the MASTER!
A very underrated player, you can have all the chops in the world but it won't help you phrase a solo like this
Why did he leave .38 Special ?
He started Camp Jam in Atlanta (Atlanta was the first location) 4 years ago and I've gotten to be good friends with him over the years. He is a great guitarist and a great person!
Thanks Jeff for the joy you given to the fans.
He's still got it after all these decades!
I played with Jeff and Brian Howe in Gadsden Al. several years ago. Jeff is a hoot and a hell of a nice guy.
Always loved the guitar work in this tune! Very emotive and happy sounding!
Agree. A great solo. A master!
From the moment I heard this song 40 years ago, I've felt this was about the most melodic and well-phrased lead I've ever heard in mainstream rock music. One of those melodic leads you actually sing along with in your head.
He is one of those players that knew how to do his own thing. He found a way to sound good with a lot of character in his playing and well timed and structured licks.
One of my favorite riffs of all time! Thanks Jeff
the guitaring in this song may not be defined in todays world as "amazing" but its still extremely creative and jus sounds soo catchy ane soo much emotion is put into it
So fortunate to have grown up with southern rock!!
What a player! This guy stands at the forefront of the soundtrack of my Life. That's for sure. Eddie is my #1 guy - and he changed my Life. But Jeff is on my Top-5 list for absolute sure. Love his work. Love that band. Love what Jeff and Don did together, as guitarists. Just amazing.
Omg goodness! I have been fascinated by this man for years, all I knew was he guitar in .38 special . God, I feel like I have woken up from a " coma". So.. Jeff Carlisi I ❤ you and that guitar, I never ever got to see you and the band in person, but I have followed the band through this many years. IT WOULD be a thrill for this woman to meet ya°!! Love at first site for me, I'd love to have a photo... but just finally knowing your name is such A JOY FOR ME. Music got me through a lot of rough patches all my life. God bless. ... A devoted fan name SHELLY😚😚
He's a great guitarist!!!!
this guitar solo is right up there with the comfortably numb/freebird/etc solos.
Great classic solo 🎸🎵🎵
I'm obsessed with this solo, It's really tough to learn. Their are a lot of different techneques going on.
He performed at my camp in phoenix today :) hes amazing.
JC... What a Great Guitarist 💥 🎸💥
He's one of the reasons I started playing. He's a magnificent musician
Jeff Carlisi is probably the most under rated guitarist in history.
Great, underrated guitarist. Always was one of my favorites.
that song still give me chills to this day......he is my favorite player......rock..on jeff
Every time I hear this I have flashbacks to the greatest era of music and Great memories!!!!
This guy left us so many great riffs! I always thought he was great!!
fantastic player great feel iv always thought he was underrated! Also pat benatars husband Niell Giraldo was another underated player with great feel
Love Carlisi’s playing. Beautiful phrasing, tasty vibrato, and feel for days. He really knows how to decorate a song. He never tries to over play, although I’m sure he could if he wanted to.
Oh my God I believe I've listened to it just now probably 15 times cuz I couldn't get enough.
One of the greatest guitarists in the world right there.
say what you want but I'm sitting here actually crying while listening to this. Jeffs playing has always affected me like that.
You're the best Jeff
I love the lick at 1:53! It last for all of 3-4 second but kicks ass.
He was at Ben Orr's bedside with Ben's family when Ben passed away. They had been great friends and in the band "Big People" together
I saw them three times in that band
💥 That Was Great Jeff 🎸 Your a Very Humble Guy💥
Started off not to into it but then he thought this does rock an got right into it . This is one of the best rock songs that around .
Wow what a gem to suddenly see in my feed. Great solo, great song and great band. Wild eyed southern boys 👍
J’adore ce groupe et j’adore ce guitariste qui est une de mes influences ! Merci Jeff Carlisi 🙏🏼
That's my boy Jeff....... Nice touch at the end. DP
He played before all the technology took over
A real guitar player. Listen to this guy this mf a beast
Such a great great tune
This brings back a ton of memories for me because I listened to a lot of .38 special way back in the 80's and even saw them in concert once in albany, georgia when their "strength in numbers" album came out back then.
i just meet jeff today at a guitar clinic is super nice and kicks ass
were cameras really this poor of quality in 2008? Insane how far we've come
Who knows what ever happened with his departure from 38 special and why, but he still is a great guitarist and in any band large or small there are a lot of differences in vision and personalities and it happens all the time.
While I'm always amazed at what shredders can do, in my mind, melody will always win. And Carlisi had melody coming out of his pores and is a prime reason I still listen to 38 Special. In fact, most of the Southern Rock guitar bands had terrific melody-focused guitar players. A pure pleasure to my ears. Actually, most of Classic Rock had great melody players: Eagles, Blue Oyster Cult, BTO, Thin Lizzy, UFO, Pink Floyd, the list goes on and on. These guys usually weren't shredders (although many of them could), but rather focused on pleasing the ear with imaginative melody.
....very melodic player ...
Spot on brother!!!!😁😎👍🎸🎶🎵
Jeff Carlisi OMG never heard anyone that could play a guitar like that you are a genius BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My youth!!! Come back!!!
Hell yeah!! That guy truly rocks! I saw JC at an outdoor concert at Hart Plaza in the Downtown Hodown in Detroit..1986! He stood just inches over a gate playing his Gibby Explorer and just kept a walin', great player! Great feelin for the axe!
Jeff never played a Gibson Explorer. His main stage guitar that you are referring to was a custom guitar made for him in the seventies by a Georgia luthier name Jay Riness of Rhyne Guitars fame. It was copied from Allen Collins' Explorer.
Love this since teenager, never tired of listen to it..
I get Goose Bumps listening these chops ... Awesome!
I love that guy, I read an interview...
I love them dudes forever !
He was the shit. Love 38 special.
Love this song!!!!!
I love this solo and ALL the 38 solos they got that special sound like skynyrd the sound of those hit songs are incredible the guitar work and vocals and everything just is perfect ! great video kool! why aint he still jamming in 38?
Did he play slide guitar on four walls of raiford by lynyrd skynyrd too?
I believe he did
Wow talk about melody, awesome stuff.
Jeff has a wonderful melodic style
I loved them since Rockin into The Night.
He's so damn good it scary. Not many players can phrase like him
Awesome Guitarist and awesome song!
Gibby Explorer, he plays a Rhyne custom Explorer. Made just for him...I thought it was a Gibson until I saw an interview with him talking about his guitar. I have been to many shows and always thought it was a Gibson too.
I wonder why no other artists picked him up as a session player or to play gigs, he certainly has the chops and would be an incredible collaborator.
+Darrin Connor One of MY Favorites!
I put this in my top 3 songs of all time and I'm 62 yrs old.
I saw the original lineup in the 80s and saw The Roundup A 5 band extravaganza
NO ONE on youtube had that extra lick during the chorus (the one that mimics the singer starting at .33 in C#) and was able to duplicate it by watching this video. Thanks Jeff and OldRockFan!!
Wish Jeff would rejoin !
frickin great! are u ever gonna re-join 38? they need some spark. they need your rippin over the top perfecto runny licks :)
I really like Jeff. Great guitarists and super guy.
As a fan, it's Holly Water! Great RIF's The building blocks!!!! thank for y con contribution!
killer player/great tone......very tastefull !!!
That is how it's done y'all!
Carlisi is a badass. The end.
Such a crafty player
Thanks for thi info; I'll have to check it out. I've been playing drums since age 6, so around 11 years now, and I'd love to play with some of these rock legends!
Imagine how many times he’s played that…
Kicking ass!!
Carlisi is one of the most underrated guitarists. Check out the old vids of him rocking on a Gibson Explorer.

@@satinwhip good info, thanks.
@@satinwhip Spot on brother!!!!😎👍🎸🎶🎵
Such great guitar phrasing
The sexiest man alive.
Come on back to 38 special..
Awesome
Good licks. Wish I could have been there.
Jeff plays in F# penta minor or C# minor natural (even thing)! you look those fingers where they lay the hands. After you check up with your guitar!! Any guitarist (who knows play) could play this kind of solo.He is very respectful of the original solo I find. Good job
WTF are you talking about?!!! Lay off the drugs, Son!!!!
@lhbox83: Hang in there; Jeff's playing is subtle and has a lot more going on than you might think. The recordings of .38 Special are layered, and have multiple guitar tracks, too, so make sure you are doing the work of one guy and not 3 or 4! That's tough for anyone...
GeorgiaBoy1961 layered because there's three guitar players
@@daveg4236 - I've known that fact since the 1980s, and seeing them live. Not to mention the fact that I am a guitar player myself and can hear how many parts there are. I'm not as young as I used to be, but not so old that I need a restatement of the obvious.
@@GeorgiaBoy1961 golf claps for you. Now go away
@@daveg4236 - Go fuck yourself, asshole....
Cool stuff. Excellent Video. Was not expect it to be that good. Keep up the great vids
Awesome.
Thanks for the licks!
Man, what amp is he using here. Sounds fantastic.
Wow....
Southern Rock 🤘
