The Larry Carlton Interview
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 чер 2019
- Larry Carlton is an American guitarist who built his career as a studio musician in the 1970s and '80s for acts such as Steely Dan and Joni Mitchell. He has participated in thousands of recording sessions, recorded on hundreds of albums in many genres, for television and movies, and on more than 100 gold records. Larry delivered his self-titled debut for Warner Bros. in 1978, shortly after he was recognized for his ground-breaking guitar playing on Steely Dan’s Royal Scam album. (Carlton contributed the memorable guitar solo on "Kid Charlemagne.”) He released four more albums for Warner Bros., Strikes Twice (1980), Sleepwalk (1981), Eight Times Up (1982), and the Grammy-nominated Friends (1983).
He continued studio session work and touring in between, emerging again in 1986 on MCA Records with an all-acoustic album, Discovery, which contained an instrumental remake of Michael McDonald’s hit, "Minute by Minute." The single won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance in 1987. Carlton’s live album, Last Nite, released in 1987, got him a Grammy nomination for Best Jazz Instrumental Performance.

How could you not love Larry Carlton. He is not only an incredible player, but a humble, down-to-earth great guy. Really enjoyed this.
It's the early 80's, I'm in a record shop in London, England in my lunch hour and I hear this sound that reminds me of Steely Dan's Peg. I ask at the desk and find out that it's Room 335 and I buy the album.
After giving up trying to learn it I wrote to Larry Carlton and was amazed to get back a long hand-written reply along with a copy of a hand-written chord chart for Room 335.
This man is a true gentleman. Thanks Larry for everything!
Mike Floutier wow, what a story! Thanks for sharing.
That is truly awesome, glad you told us all about that
Wow, unheard of anywhere else.
Those were the days , when you had to hope that the Radio DJ would say the name of the song and artist when the song finishes , pulled up at the side of the road ready to scratch it onto the back of a cigarette packet , no mobile phone , no nothing .
Wow. Incredible.
I'm 72 years old and have been playing music for 66 of them. Arthritis is beginning to take its toll now yet I'm STILL looking for that perfect sound. I've come close but just haven't got there yet. The more I can relax, the closer I get. That is not to say that I'm disappointed... not at all. The journey has been amazing. I suspect that Mr. Carlton knows what I'm talking about. It's like the old quote: "it's not necessarily the destination, it's the journey."
such a beautiful and inspirational thing you wrote Mr.Dan. Thank you!!
69 years here. The one thing I have always said about my many years of Guitar. (I said it just yesterday to one of my daughters).
The Guitar has NEVER, I mean never let me down -through all the ups & downs. It is always there ,all I have to do is get off my Butt & pick it up , within 5 mins - everything else falls away. Sometimes hours pass. It is magical & I am lucky - I have never stopped learning & wanting to progress.
Hope your well Dan .
Here's 2 The Journey: Every Step of the Way...
I'm 2 years behind you, Dan, and have been playing since '65 or so... I hear ya, man!! I love this interview and what Rick brings to us. Best to you, keep groovin'!
My hero!!! Thanks Rick & Larry!!
I am a big fan of your work also :)
Rr
Good stuff
I'll second that!
Wow!
This channel is so much better than TV... Thank you, Rick!
Great channel but I will up that with videos in general that you can select your own content are the way to go. Haven't had cable for years!
Bogáti-Bokor Ákos couldn’t have said it better myself! If only we could get one of the major networks to switch to Beato TV! 24/7 of Rick!
Enjoy it while it lasts and fight for it when they take it away!
@@joerobinson2538 I believe big-corporate would ruin this fantastic content. Right now Rick is in the driver's seat, and that is "What Makes This Channel Great"!
You posted this on my sons birthday, to whom Larry Carlton is a legend....thank you Rick.
Happy Birthday Mick. 🎉🎉🎉😁😁
Rick is the "gold-standard" when it comes to interviewing musicians. Another great interview.
It's like guitar player magazine for free. Great balance of interviews, personal stories, lessons on gear, mixing, playing. Whatch more than anything else on my phone. We should all buy a shirt or something from rick to show our appreciation. He has a club membership also.
I was thinking exactly the same thing. Even though he talks quite a bit it never feels intrusive or attention seeking.
Always Loved jazz Larry I lays loved listening to .alot of jazz I did t realize it was him stealy Dan recording was Great
Wes Montgomery another absolute Great American jazz Guitarists and Influence on me
Larry is a national treasure. Thanks for bringing this to us, Rick.
Everybody knew already.
why'd Rick have to go dig him up?!?
Rick is a great example of "listening" after he asks a question and not interrupting. Really makes the conversations so much easier to enjoy. Thank you Rick. Larry really is one of those guys you just have to wonder. I don't think we should leave Elliot Randall out of Steely Dan dialogue.The solo on Reelin' is right up there. Not comparing, just acknowledging.
Apparently Jimmy Page said Reelin' is his fav' ever solo !! Some compliment !
indeed...it feels like Solos on Steely Dan tracks could take up 50% of the top 100 solos of al time...@@terrycarthy4433
@@terrycarthy4433
The great guitar soloist on Reelin’ In The Years was Elliott Randall,not Larry.
Yeah I always wondered why Elliot didn't just kick out of a ton of jams after that? I've tried to listen to some of the small amount of stuff he has available (under his own name).
It's nothing like the epic soloing on ''Reelin' In The Years'' nor are the songs that interesting or exciting to listen to much. That's been one of the bigger head scratchers for me among the history of talented guitarists.
An interview like this is also interesting because Rick knows what he is talking about.
Larry is a class act. I remember watching Eric Clapton's Crossroads DVD featuring a ton of great guitarists. All of these guys strutted their stuff to the max, ad nauseum. Except Larry. He's a master of understatement and leaving you wanting more. The song on the DVD he played was Josie. He played the melody to the tune but when the opportunity came up for soloing, he gave it to his tenor player. That's class. He doesn't need to strut his stuff. A master doesn't need show others he's masterful. He just knows he is and is content with knowing that much. I've modeled so much of my playing after him but I simply don't have his restraint. I still play a lot of notes. It's going to take a few more lifetimes for me to develop the class of Larry Carlton. One of the true greats.
Love that DVD. I believe that's the one where I discovered Tedeschi/Trucks band.
Well said.
On what Crossroads DVD does he appear? there are about 3 or 4.Thank you
Yeah, he's been a favorite since the 80s. Right behind Phil Keaggy, but only because Larry isn't really a writer.
I also think Jeff Beck is a master of that understated playing style
"If I liked it, I learned it." Maybe the best place for any musician to start.
I remember the day I first heard the opening solo on “ don’t take me alive” .i was 16 in the hot summer of 76 and I had never heard of Steely dan let alone Larry Carlton......it took my mind apart and refocused my listening ability......what a seminal guitarist and at the age of 60 now I’m am still listening to the Dan and the totally amazing Mr Carlton.
Thanks for the ride Larry.
I agree... i was 13.....maybe 14. I thought album came out in the fall....regardless it was played on rock radio a lot. Always really really liked it!
MrDallman... you are correctamundo. i can't believe critics didn't love this.
I’m not sure what was wrong with me this night, but I remember playing Don’t take me alive out at a night club in the late 70s. Standing room only - people were dancing on our feet. Somehow I managed to break both the high E and B string on my 68 LP. Try getting through a song without those strings. LOL
“I was a servant, I wanted to please them”
What a humble musician.
Wanted to keep a lucrative job. Talented session musicians are not that rare in recording capitals around this country.
@@WarHog38KCS larry carltons are rare though
Larry is a long time Christian; Jesus said the servant is the greatest.
"I was in junior high and I'm walking to school one day, I was thinking about this 13b9 chord..."
This bloody legend listened to more complex music when he was a lil' kid than people do during their whole lives.
A glorious musician and a glorious interview.
Larry Carlton and Rick Beato, now there’s a pair of classy guys!!! Great interview Rick! I could see how excited you were throughout the video.
It’s great to see your admiration for Larry shine through! Very classy!
Rick: I've long considered Larry Carlton's solo on "Kid Charlemagne" and "Don't Take Me Alive" my favorites. He made "Royal Scam" great.
Larry Carlton is a hero, and Rick, you are a hero for being the most-qualified person on the planet to interview him.
He's so good because as he says he's always going for the sound he wants to hear (not the mechanics of finding what scale to use, or thinking that making things complicated means they are better). Rick, thank you so much for this interview.
Larry is so classy and humble. Rick is like "How do you music so good??"
And he's just like "Well, I just like hearing these nice chords so I learned them and I play them :)"
❤ ❤ ❤
Larry is a nice guy who replies to comments on UA-cam.
A pure genius with an incredible soul. The skill of a cat with the love of a dog. I hope he knows all the love we have for the one he has given us. I hope he knows all the love we have for the one he has given us. And the admiration we have for the one he does not agree for himself.
What a great interview by Rick. Larry Carlton is such a inspiring, interesting and is never predictable. There are no guitar players like him any longer, he’s a treasure and artist.
Rick's got the starstruck giddiness and exuberance of an interviewer one third his age. Gotta love that!
They say never meet your heroes. I met Larry Carlton in 2015 and the man was an absolute gentleman. He had time for everyone after his gig where many would have just gone to their hotel. Thanks for the interview Rick.
Agreed. i've not had the fortune to have met Mr. Carlton, but as off season director of PR & Marketing and at event time, Main Backstage mgr for a large Midwest city's Festival commission, i met HUGE heroes of mine, globally famous people, and it was only the rarest of occasions that someone you respected a lot acted a fool.
However, when people that worked for me at the event would get stars in their eyes, i'd move them out of the Artists area tout suite....nothing can try the patience of anyone quite like someone relentlessly fan-boying out. Not a good look and everyone becomes instantly uncomfortable. It is also how phrases like "never meet your heroes" likely get started, cuz its just creepy for them...or as Neil Peart put it; "I can't pretend a stranger is a long awaited friend."
"If you like somethin , then eventually , it should come outta your playin"
words to live by!
Well at least now I know why I sound like ass...
Great interview. Such a nice guy and beyond great guitarist.
Larry Carlton is just a beautiful human being. What a phenomenal phenomenal gentleman. So is Rick. The generosity of spirit of these guys. And the music they've given us - it's riches beyond the imagination.
Larry's solo on Kid Charlemagne has always been my favourite guitar solo!
I agree wholeheartedly
It's odd. I'm here because I worship Larry Carlton, but I still think the ultimate Steely Dan guitar solo is Elliot Randal's 'Reeling in the years'. And not just because I can still play that one! :)
I liked the Steely Dan of the first three records far better. Jazz music puts me to sleep. This dude has probably never rocked just like Steely Dan never did after those early three records.
Same here
I'll never forget the night I caught Larry Carlton and Robbin Ford playing together at a smallish venue here in Salt Lake City. Just an absolutely amazing night of musicianship by two the greatest guitar players out there.
My Gawd! I heard a bootleg of Robin Ford at the Keystone. It's only in my head, forevermore.. . wish everyone could have heard it. Live and improvised.
The Zephyr?
When I heard Larry Carlton's solo on the Crusaders' jam Spiral, everything changed for me. I was finally able to get out of the Jimi Hendrix/Santana rut, and started learning jazz guitar.
Lotta jazz in Jimi!
Spiral is beyond 🎸💖🌆
The first time I saw Larry perform, he was playing on “Midnight Special” with The Crusaders. I had no idea who he was. They did “Stomp And Buck Dance”, which was a one chord tune that pretty much focused on the groove. Then I start hearing these uber-tasty licks about a minute before the song ended. I just happened to have my cassette recorder taping the show, so I was able to go back and dig in to hear what he was doing. Naturally, I wanted to hear more, so I went out and bought the album that the song was on, but it just didn’t have the fire that the live version did. I don’t how much time passed before The Crusaders released the “Southern Knights” album, but his solo on “Spiral” knocked me out. Not too long after, Steely Dan’s “The Royal Scam” came out. I was at work when “Kid Charlemagne” came on the radio. I stopped in my tracks and didn’t move until the song ended. I’ve been a diehard fan ever since.
Rick, in addition to being a superb musician you are apparently also great at conducting a good interview for us. Thank you!
This guy's career amazes me.
Amazing solos with steely dan. Third World Man, my god.
I'm from Argentina, and this guy played guitar for a famous artist here, Charly Garcia, in his 1983 album Clics Modernos. What a legend...
Third World Man - Yep! Doesn't get mentioned much but awesome guitar work.
Queeeeeeeeee? Carlton tocó en clics modernos?
Thanks Jose! I’m from the SF area of Ca and I totally agree with you!!
Listening to this with a big stupid grin, loved Carlton's work as a kid long before ever knowing who it was. Steely, Joni, his own solo material. And a warm, humble soul. Thanks Rick... amazing.
I have Loved Larry Carlton's playing since his days with the Crusader's. I drove up to Santa Barbara to see him with the Wilton, Wayne, Stix, and Joe Sample back in '76 or '77, so that was my first time seeing him live. Peak Life Experience!! I was just out of high school, but I'd been listening to him for a while already by then. So much of my life has been shaped by the work that he's done. I am Grateful.
Im 68 years old and I love guitar. this was the best interview i’ve ever watched. Things I never knew...Thank you.
1978 I was 21. Saw Larry’s name on Steely Dan Albums but didn’t know his solo work. I saw the Larry Carlton album at Wherehouse and bought it. Probably one of the best vinyl purchases I’ve ever made. I was blown away and an instant fan of his playing. Definitely a major influence on my playing. Thank you Rick for this interview and everything you do to further my appreciation of music. ⚡️
This interview should be on display at the Rocking Roll Hall of Fame. Even better, at the Smithsonian.
rocking roll?! 🤔
WOW..........just WOW. Thank you Rick and Larry.
Just incredible .
Thanks Rick, thanks Larry
Rick...you are one lucky guy! If ever there was a "dream job," you have it. Getting to meet, and talk, with people like Larry Carlton, would indeed be a dream come true. And, you are an incredibly gifted musician! Please continue doing what you do so well...letting us see the wonderful world of music, though your amazing ears, eyes, and hands. Thank you so much.
My mom taught elementary school with Larry's wife at the time (now deceased), and his son Travis taught me my very first guitar chords on a camping trip when I was 8 years old or so! I remember meeting Larry at the local shopping mall and he autographed his empty Orange Julius plate for me, which I still have.
Larry Carlton RULES!
Marla Hooch ... That’s too cool!
❤️
I'm watching this for the second time, thank you Mr. B, Thank you Larry Carlton!
What an awesome human being! I became aware of him from Court and Spark. There is enough guitar to listen to for a lifetime on “Help Me.” The outro is so emotionally Malibu and is as integral as words to that song, it just fits perfectly. Joni called his guitar style “Fly Fishing.” Rick said in the interview that back in the day Larry seemed to play on all the classic albums that everyone should own and Larry says yeah “it was a great time to be a studio musician.”
Wow! I love Larry Carlton's work on Steely Dan's early recordings! Thank you so much for interviewing!
Epic interview! Rick, your enthusiasm and passion are front and center!
As much as I love Larry...and I DO love Larry...the opening to Don't Take Me Alive has been my ringtone for the past 10+ years...I think Phil Keaggy also has to be considered for the title of most melodic guitarist.
Monster player. Saw him twice in the mid 70s with The Crusaders. I remember Wayne Henderson joking when he introduced Larry, saying if you’re going to break the color line, we did it with the best. Also saw Larry and Robben Ford on a double bill years later. That was also a special guitar night.
Yes! This is so true!
I've seen Larry live many times solo and with Fourplay. What I wouldn't give to be able to play like him. One of my all-time
favorite guitarists. Thank you Larry for all of the great music!
I'm loving these interviews with legendary musicians. The way you interview them is just the best :)
You prolly dont care at all but does anybody know a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost the login password. I appreciate any help you can give me
@Eric Zion Instablaster :)
Ricks speaks their language without being seen as a 'know it all'. He gets their respect fairly early on, it's no more evident than on the Sting interview. Starting off, you could tell that Sting wasn't sure what he was getting into. He looked ready to dismiss Rick as one of the many frauds that have likely interviewed him in the past, but aft 5 mins, he was fully engaged.
Love this guy.🤟 Great great great Larry Carlton talks like he plays, beautifully.
Larry Rules!!!! Thanks to both of you!
Thank you Rick for interviewing a music legend and one of the nicest people too. Been following Larry's career since mid 70"s.
Larry is so genuine and authentic. Always accessible. I could talk to him after a concert when he was signing CD's and always was gracious and supportive. Recently, he made time to sign my blond 335 at Jazz Alley in Seattle for my 60th birthday and was open and conversational - after playing for 1:20. He is certainly one of the most gifted guitarists in popular music, but more than that, he is a wonderful person. So thankful for his influence in music and in life.
Larry is such a gentleman. Thanks for sharing
Great interview with my favorite guitar player........ Thanks again Rick.
🎸🌹Larry Carlton's Choice Of Notes/Chords Are Intricately Melodious & Awesome🌹🎸Nice Interview🎵
This is fantastic, Rick. I was a fan of Larry before I even knew who he was other than his amazing playing. I am also a huge fan of "Help Me" by Joni Mitchell, to me Larry just played it perfectly.
"emotions wound us so" is one of my favorite guitar tunes from Larry Carlton, so much feel in that one.
Absolutely .....Kid Charlemagne solo is the best solo of All Time...Thanks Guys love it
This is a golden interview. Carlton created some of the greatest guitar parts in modern music history. Well done, Rick.
Larry Carlton is a legend in his own time....whether he knows it or not. His solo on Kid Charlemagne made that song. Thanks, Rick, for posting this.
Fascinating what a wonderful humble guy!
I learned to play the piano track on rhythm guitar to Room 335 about 37 years ago. I still play it frequently. After 35 years I recently tried to reconnect with the guitar teach who taught me that song, only to learn he recently passed away from Covid.
Yesterday for my Xmas wish list, I got my first ever Gibson ES-335. It’s in Deep Purple color. I’ve been playing it all day and am beginning to love and hear sounds from it that I used to search for with effects from my Strat or Tele.
I’ve seen Larry live twice at the Coach House about 25 years ago and was just in awe the entire time.
I never heard of him before until my teacher Mike taught me to play Room 335. It’s my go to warm up song to play big jazz chords.
Those two solos on The Royal Scam still take my breath away and I first heard them when at 16 I bought the album the day it was released. What a fabulous interview. I was almost as thrilled as you were, Rick! Best regards from the UK.
This is the best channel eveeeeeer!!!! Please try to do an interview with steve lukather!! You the best Rick...
Johnny Lou Yes Steve Lukather!!
oh that would be awesome!!
YES, just yes
A great interview with a great musician. Thank you.
An interview for all time!
The "Don't Take Me Alive" guitar solo floored me the first time I heard it. My personal favorite guitar solo to hear.
As a Steely Dan fan, Larry Carlton was one of my heroes. So great to hear his stories about these legendary tracks. He is awesome. Thanks for interviewing him, Rick!
Thanks Rick! What a treat! WE ARE THE LUCKY ONES.
Please Larry. Come to Australia (Adelaide in particular).... What a delightful man, and a delightful interview.
LC is the greatest, and my favorite, player of all time. His Steely Dan stuff is epic.
This is so great. I first heard Larry when my parents bought home Joni Mitchell's Hissing Of Summers Lawns in '75(?)...and it just blew my young guitarist mind. The intro to Edith And The Kingpin still makes my spine tingle 40 or so years later. So inventive, so cool and so humble. Thanks Rick.
A superb musician and a lovely man😊
So glad you brought LC to the masses he is phenomenal
Larry Carlton is one of my favorite guitarist, he can play Jazz, Rock, Blues, Pop with great taste, class, swing, groove, fire and lyricism. Great interview! thanks for sharing, Rick!
First Gambale, then this gent, here, in the same week. You just keep stock piling pure gold.
Yes I've had to have a cigarette after watching these uploads and I don't smoke!
Gambale is NO Carlton.
I wasn't ready for Larry when I was a younger man, but now I can't get enough of this guy. Legend doesn't even begin to accurately describe him with regards to his contribution to music. He is an inspiration and shows what can be achieved on the instrument with hard work and dedication.
Larry is the one guitar player where I can here one note and say "Oh, it's Larry Carlton!". Amazing guitar player!
His playing touches my soul like no one else. It's an absolute privilege to get a window into his genius, so thank you as always Rick!
I am amazed as I watch a genius speak to another genius and they discuss nuances and chordal inflections that only they can understand. Musical mechanics talking shop in the back of the garage at 11:30 p.m. on a warm Saturday night.
What a wonderful interview! Thanks so much!
Always loved Larry, even met him once in a small northern Swedish town, eating some chinese food after his gig... A lovely man and a all time great musician!
Larry Carlton has a singular tone that is incomparable to anyone
Instantly recognizable by any real fan. Love Larry Carlton!
Larry's guitar on the Hill Street Blues extended version is just amazing, it literally can't be touched ❤️🎸
thank You Larry for some wonderful guitar palying.
I was a HUGE Larry Carlton fan when I went to see him play in the Free Jazz festival, Hotal Nacional, Rio de Janeiro. Late 80´s, I think. Then he appeared beside an autograph table with a Coke can in one hand, sat down and I was SO nervous for being in front of him that I lost my abillity to speak. I got an autgrapg in the festival program paper and said "tkank you" or something like that. I was TREMBLING, really! He had a immense influence on my way of playing.
Great interview. Good to have an interviewer that actually knows his stuff.
exactly, when you're dealing with a musician of his level he can only be properly interviewed by someone in the same vein.
I first heard about Larry Carlton from a Steely Dan documentary, since then I've discovered all his solo work. Session Masters is a must listen.
What a great interview, just wonderful
This is so amazing.....what a LEGEND!!!!!
The work ethic and substance behind this man and his playing is so heartwarming. In all sincerity…Larry, God Bless you and your profound contribution. Don’t be going anywhere anytime soon!
He's a born again Christian and yessir God has bless him with great talent and Larry glorifies the Lord by using it to the fullest....
I love Larry Carlton ... the world loves Larry. What a phenomenal musician and man. He's inspired me more than any other guitarist!
Thank you Rick for this intelligent interview..
Yessssssssss.... my dad introduced me to him many years ago. Glad he did.
I don't have words to express how great Larry is. What an awesome guy as well as a visionary player.
I love Larry Carlton his amazing contribution as a studio musician especially in the 70 ‘s is out of this world my favourite though is his playing on Third World Man from the Gaucho album 1980
he is the best so stylish great interview !
Thank you Rick for a wonderful interview !!
Thank you! I was in a music store in San Jose in the 80’s when Larry Carlton did a clinic with his keyboard player. He had his guitar, but not his amp. The store set up a Mesa Boogie amp and Larry messed with it in front of us 50 guys until he got the sound he wanted, and he sounded like, well Larry Carlton. I still can’t get his sound. Larry Carlton has always been my favorite guitarist when it comes to tone and melody. Thanks Rick!!!
Hillstreet Blues is amazing and didn't know until later it was Larry. Who's the Boss is too, also seeing his name on the ending credits. This guy is amazing.
I first heard him on The Art Of Tea from Michael Franks, awesome!
Michael Franks late 70's into early 80's had many of the same crew of session players that played with Steely Dan. I started actively listening to him around 81 or so.
Wow. I had no idea. Thanks for the heads up!
Rick, what a nice guy is Larry Carlton. Thanks!
What a great interview! Amazing. Well done Rick!
