In 40 years he still remains my #1 guitar hero. That one chance in my life I had to meet him and sit at the feet of my master, I'll never forget, Bob James, in that New York accent telling me "Larry doesn't party man."
What’s most amazing about Larry Carlton is how humble he is. A lot of guys that are fantastic players, develop big egos. But Larry is as down to earth as can be. Truly one of those humble giants.
Your comment is a tribute to Larry’s career. This man could play it all, but didn’t over-ride the spotlight. I find that mostly jazz players have this kind of mentality, certainly not all of them. But a true player gives to the music just what it needs and just a little more. When I see someone like Larry here just enjoying the moment instead of trying to steal it, it draws me more towards musicians like him. Great stuff!
Yes it is and I own one first lot same burst color, and it’s great. Larry Designed the PUPs. Their west coast PAF sound. But it is capable of a brighter bridge. Ebony fret board and great workmanship.When these guitars turn 30 40 years old everyone is going to want one. I had to wait almost 6 months to get it. Not as valuable but play and sound great.
When Larry played lead on the Steely's songs, he owned them. I saw Larry years ago at the Newport Jazz Festival in R.I. Great show. Thanks Larry for your musicianship. BTW and your work with The Crusaders.
I ve always loved the way Larry accompanies at the guitar and when comes the time for the solo at 3mn50... It is so good those little notes up and down...reminds me all my listening experiences in the late 75/90..it was so good this music ! These vinyls are my personal treasure at home.
Thank you for posting this video! I’ve always wanted a 335, but seriously looking at the Sire H7. To see Larry playing it, and hearing it live, makes me see what an incredible instrument it is.
@@JackTheSkunk - Can’t answer that, but I bought one and it plays and sounds great. If you search for “Sire H7 Darrel Braun Guitar”, you can hear it. Several other very good videos also!
@@JackTheSkunk He specified the pickups in the H7 to emulate the tone of his No. 1 335, so I don't think he would want to change them for his own use. I may be wrong
Just FYI… I couldn’t buy one in the US, so bought mine from Thomann. With a very nice hard shell case, and shipping, it only cost me $20 more than buying the guitar alone from a U.S. distributor. They have great pricing on all guitars, especially high end guitars!
What a great find. Thank you for uploading. Larry makes it look effortless but I doubt if it was anything but. My favourite Steely Dan song with one of the humblest and most magnificent guitarists.
No kidding, Meg. Steely Dan showcased the best pop/rock/jazz artists of their era, including several true monsters on guitar. My best moments playing over several decades would not add up to what we just listened to here. This made my whole day better.
The first time I saw Larry Carlton (80s) he opened by going "yeah yeah OK everyone always wants to hear the Steely Dan stuff" lol...great guy, amazing talent..wish he had soloed more on this one
Toto's Steve Lukather: "I realized it was okay to play a bad note when I saw Larry Carlton six years ago. He broke his E string, and everybody was like 'Oh, no." Then he took his clippers and clipped off the B and G strings and played a killer solo!"
When I first heard Larry Carlton he was one of the Crusaders - the one white boy in the band. Some of the best funky sh*t came from that band. Still love that early work he did like on Lilies Of The Nile on Southern Comfort and other albums. One of my first jazz influences for a young rocker in high school. He'll always be a Jazz Crusader in my mind.
Oh yeah, my older brother turned me onto the Crusaders in 1975. Larry Carlton was building his chops and went onto the highest level of studio musicianship ...The best guitarist Steely Dan ever used in my opinion.❤
Did I hear a sax, a trombone? Were they dubbed or were they present at the video take? We’ll never know. What a shame. BUT obviously the leader was the guitarist!
@@kurtbuchholz920 the first time i played for a live audience was on Chicago's southside. I met three black guys at Lyon & Healey music downtown in the loop. The 4th floor was given to stringed instruments of every kind, and they had little glassed-in audition rooms WITH AMPLIFIERS. They heard me playing my best B.B.King licks and asked me if i was working that night. They CAME AND PICKED ME UP at my relatives' home and carted me over to the southside to a club. I played someone's tele through a Fender amp (don't remember the model). The year was 1961, so the sight of a white boy playing the blues was a novel thing. They took me home after the gig and dropped me off and my poor aunt nearly soiled her britches she was so worried. She had called my mother in Houston to tell her what i'd done, but my mom was unconcerned. I had a great time that night, and the whole experience solidified my infatuation with the guitar, which became a lifelong affair. I'm 80 now, but that night on Chicago's southside stands out in mind. Some gigs you don't forget.
I'm really trying to understand what it is that people get from this style of music - I'll just say it ... Carlton is a good player, but so much of what I hear him play is this sort of "jacuzzi jazz" ....
@@matt23012301 But, I really want to understand ... I have diverse musical tastes ranging from orchestral, chamber to jazz (early to modern), blues, rock, folk and indigenous ... again, pretty much everything I've heard from carlton seems like trite "let's go to the beach" stuff ...
Such an elegant version.. thanks Larry ❤
An absolute Master and an Icon!
Larry Carlton is awesome!
And a Hell of a nice guy too!
So Cooooooooolllllll!!!
Who’s in the band?
Trombone too loud

Beautiful.
Larry always highlighted the genius of Walter and Donald.
Such a great guitarist....one of my favorite Steely Dan Songs...Larry's work on this song made it great !!
Is that the sire Larry Carlton guitar you see all over the place ? it looks and sounds good if it is .
Yes it is. They don't really sound like a 335 . A bit to bright but, in the hands of taster ?,,!!
Yes it is and I own one first lot same burst color, and it’s great. Larry Designed the PUPs. Their west coast PAF sound. But it is capable of a brighter bridge.

@@edwardlewis8045 waiting too! :)
I love that there is no blowtorch solo or showcasing of anything... there is only THE SONG
One of my top fave Dan songs. So neat to watch Larry strum his magic.
When Larry played lead on the Steely's songs, he owned them. I saw Larry years ago at the Newport Jazz Festival in R.I. Great show. Thanks Larry for your musicianship. BTW and your work with The Crusaders.
Crusaders is where I first heard of him. The volume swells and other cool stuff he did amazed me.

Thank you for posting this video! I’ve always wanted a 335, but seriously looking at the Sire H7. To see Larry playing it, and hearing it live, makes me see what an incredible instrument it is.
I'm wondering if he is using the stock pickups or maybe some Seymour Duncan custom shop
numbers. Guitar sounds and looks good though.

I was wondering what he was playing. I didn’t know he had a line of guitars. I just got a Donner 335 and I like it so far. I was inspired by his 335.
What a great find. Thank you for uploading. Larry makes it look effortless but I doubt if it was anything but. My favourite Steely Dan song with one of the humblest and most magnificent guitarists.
LC'c signature model Sire guitar! sounds good.
Nice to see an artist endorse a budget-conscious guitar, and then actually play it on stage.
They're really goddamn good too. Played one at a guitar center and still don't know why I left without it.
Loved this video, thank you for the upload, 🎸🎶🎷🎺🎸🎸 just perfection
Excelente homenaje al solo de Rhodes de Victor Feldman.
Great Stuff 🎹🎹🎹
LC was good enough for SD. That's all i need to know.
Happy he was in my lifetime.

A real Jazz Crusader
Larry's wonderful but there are other folks in the band right? Can't you pan out for a bit?
One of my favorite players & songs
The first time I saw Larry Carlton (80s) he opened by going "yeah yeah OK everyone always wants to hear the Steely Dan stuff" lol...great guy, amazing talent..wish he had soloed more on this one
May Larry live forever because his music sure will.
Larry Carlton 73才。43年前に自身が参加したRecordingの楽曲を披露。
That Sire guitar sounds great.
Truly an essential part of that incredible phenomena called Steely Dan, Donald and Walter found perfection when Larry was included
Wow! Thank you for sharing--great performance from a great artist!
Toto's Steve Lukather: "I realized it was okay to play a bad note when I saw Larry Carlton six years ago. He broke his E string, and everybody was like 'Oh, no." Then he took his clippers and clipped off the B and G strings and played a killer solo!"
Playing a Sire H7 instead of his 335.
Was this recorded on somebody's phone-----the audio quality isn't great, & the bass keeps fading in & out like it's being panned left & right.....
Super baddddd! Larry Carlton is a living legend!!!!!
When I first heard Larry Carlton he was one of the Crusaders - the one white boy in the band. Some of the best funky sh*t came from that band. Still love that early work he did like on Lilies Of The Nile on Southern Comfort and other albums. One of my first jazz influences for a young rocker in high school. He'll always be a Jazz Crusader in my mind.
about time some body stated the fact that he build a large part of skills with the Crusaders .
Oh yeah, my older brother turned me onto the Crusaders in 1975. Larry Carlton was building his chops and went onto the highest level of studio musicianship ...The best guitarist Steely Dan ever used in my opinion.❤
@@Yeahthatsright717 are you from Corpus?
@@freddymclain nope
Saw him in Milwaukee area a few summers ago. Great guy and talented. So enjoyed the night!
The #1 hit maker Mr Carlton !
LOVE TH IS SONG
Did I hear a sax, a trombone? Were they dubbed or were they present at the video take? We’ll never know. What a shame. BUT obviously the leader was the guitarist!
One camera on him. Would have been nice to see the entire band.
This goes out to my old friend Donna Blount
Ah Man! Mark, really digging your middle break on this tune! So good!!!
Now that headstock doesn’t say Gibson…
It's a very relaxing tune.
I hear no similarities between this and "Chained Reaction", "Room335" or "Mulberry Street" Larry C.
when I was a kid, a 'black cow' was root beer and vanilla ice cream - a wonderful thing.
Freddy, that’s what we called it growing up on the southside of Chicago!

6月28日のライブが楽しみです。期待してます。
What guitar is he playing? It's not his usual 335, looks like a Sire prototype.
Sire H7 Larry Carlton model I think. Cherry burst. They are in production and available at Andertons.
Wonderful ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍
SO is that his signature H7 by Sire that he is playing? I got mine just a week or two ago and I totally love this guitar! Thanks Sire and LC!
I've got an L7. Absolutely killer instrument. It's just silly how affordable they are.
Since Wes Montgomery but maybe Billy Gibbons just play that music.
Good music - lovely to hear!
Larrys just the greatest !!
It would be interesting to know how much Jeff Beck influenced the Steely Dan sound . . . .
Congratulations on retirement. Well earned.
Absolutely nothing to prove, just taste and style. Love it. The master.
1972 and Steely Dan came into my life and have remained ever since. 🌹
good man
The one and only, superb brotha and master guitarist.🎶🎶🦋🥰
really misses something without the vocals
i love larry i love steely dan!!
Certainly one of the Nice guys
God, could the horns tune it up a little
What an absolute master!
Dead drop beautifull!
God, let me be like him
too bad we couldn’t see the horn players who did all the real playing..
Jeez, hate much….
Grande chitarrista.
Jazz matters!
Legend.
Master
Sho' nuff
Very nice
I love Larry but this plods
Some tunes weren't meant to be covered. This is one of them.
I'm really trying to understand what it is that people get from this style of music - I'll just say it ... Carlton is a good player, but so much of what I hear him play is this sort of "jacuzzi jazz" ....
it's a satire of jacuzzi jazz and an exercise in perfect songwriting
@@matt23012301 so, he's made a career out of satirizing a musical genre?
@@davidbentrin1088 the Dan have. if you dont get it you dont get it!
@@matt23012301 But, I really want to understand ... I have diverse musical tastes ranging from orchestral, chamber to jazz (early to modern), blues, rock, folk and indigenous ... again, pretty much everything I've heard from carlton seems like trite "let's go to the beach" stuff ...
This sounds like a lounge version of Black Cow without the vocals. Why doesn't Larry just do his music?
This is his music.
Torture. Horns not in tune with guitar. Eff Larry Carlton.
Wow, this is just as boring as when Steely Dan plays it...
Do you dislike steely Dan or just this song?
