J'espère que DIEU (LARRY CARLTON himself )a vu cette vidéo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Guy
I hate to say this, but Matteo's "Room 335" surpasses that of the original composer. Not only in his tone, speed and attack, but also melodic invention. So happy to have lived long enough to have been able to hear Matteo's playing.
I disagree. While I think this is a pretty good rendition, it lacks the magic and energy due to the absence of the keyboard solo and the reduced speed. Also I can't forgive that they didn't end the song with the right notes and made it less punchy than the original. Sorry! 😅
@@juancarlosvelascocruz4171 So what! And yes you are angry. So you mean that only Larry Carlton SHOULD/MUST play it. Matteo didn't even say he owns the song.
I'm inclined to agree. I played the grooves out of the vinyl when this was first released in 1978, it's one of Larry's masterpieces. But Matteo's version has harmonic subtleties even the original lacks, the execution is flawless, the technique staggering. I would never have believed this possible, but here we are.
As a guitar wannabee from the 60/70s, this has shaken my world. This man has made my Gods sound like children. Such a shame that popular music has no interest in guitarists these days. But guitar lovers, of which we are still here, have taken notice.
This song is one of my favourite guitar songs of all time, one of Larry's masterpieces, and I've spent years learning/trying to play it. If anyone had told me that someone would come along and cover it better than Larry, I would have laughed at them, and hard. Yet that is what Matteo has done, somehow. Impeccable tone, perfect note selection, flawless articulation, he's done what only a handful of great axeman have done i.e Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck and Shawn Lane. He's taken someone else's classic, and made it his own. Wow. And he's only 26, so we have decades of his genius to look forward to.
my wife is giving birth now while im watching this video, i cant miss this masterpiece. ur prayers pls 🙏🏼 edit: thank you guys for all the great comments,support and prayers, it was a great moment for me i will remember it all my life, i wish i can invite all of u to my daughter's celebration . keep supporting our great artist matteo, have a good life and a good taste of music 🙏🏼
I've played guitar for some 60years and have been part of many great session and stage acts, but if I had ever come across a guitarist like this cat I probably would have put my guitar back in it's case and left. Amazing doesn't quite describe this guy. Wow!
That's a really great comment, Sir. But I think if you came across a guitarist like Matteo Mancuso you would probably have become an even better player than you were thanks to the inspiration such an incredible musician like him surely gives. Cheers.
Matteo really does play like a non human from another planet. The finger picking style, amazing note selection, insane speed, never any mistakes, and playing with such feel. This is a once in 100 years talent.
I think Al di Meola, John McLaughlin and Paco de Lucia were 3 of the best guitarist on the planet for a time. Mateo is another paradigm shift in the last 100 years like the other 3 mentioned. He is outstanding! If you are impressed with how smooth Mateo is, you should check out Howard Robert's son Jay Roberts. The kid could play with the big 3 and hold his own just fine.....
In my opinion he's probably one of the most technical players around but the reason why I love him is the phrasing, man what an incredibly lyrical phrasing... And that vibrato is fire, that's what I call playing with taste, love it! 🔥🔥
I posted similar on one of his other songs on youtube. His playing above all is so musical and lyrical that it overshadows his technical prowess. At the end of the day, if you're not making music I lose interest, and Matteo's approach to soloing is pure music art.
Hats off to one of the all time great guitarists Larry Carlton for writing and recording this song in 1978. It was awesome back then and awesome still today. Especially in the hands of this astonishingly skilled and talented young man. I’ve played guitar since I was in the second grade and have never come close to such pure fingering and hand, mind, eye coordination. I have never seen that much pure guitar invested in one human being in my life. Can’t wait to watch his career unfold.
Io credo che nemmeno Larry Carlton immaginasse che il suo brano potesse avere questo input tecnico strabiliante e superlativo e di come Matteo e' riuscito ad esaltare sia sotto il profilo tecnico che sotto il profilo espressivo il risultato e assolutamente metafisico !!!
It's incredible, how the solo begins at minute 2:10 and then those phrasings that he makes with so much sense. His solos create a landscape which he decorates along the way... It's like the solo that he added in ghemon! Absolutely impressive, he has brought out things in the song that it didn't seem to have before.
What superlatives can be used to describe Matteo’s immense artistry? Virtuosity is one thing but he has such a beautiful musical mind on top of everything. A combination rarely seen or heard.
That's the key to his genius: even at his most virtuosic he doesn't waste a single millisecond, or play one note too many. It's about as close to perfection as I ever hope to hear. He's freaking incredible! ❤❤❤❤
It's been a while since last time music moved me to tears. Today it happened... I listened to this track 4 times in a row while driving, and got really moved. Thank you Matteo & The Band. I'm so grateful. What a blessing...🥰
@@daltonzinsmeyer12 Yes. But the way he is mixing the harmonic jazz licks with blues is so much a Carlton trade. Don't get me wrong - I love both immensely!

@@jhgust Shredding means just ripping through notes at fast speed/tempo. It doesen't mean that the notes aren't musical in context to the harmony. Matteo *is* a shredder, a very virtuosic one.
@@carlsalazar4490 good for you pal,at least you were able to shred ,me...I wasn't even able to improvise a simple thrash metal solo(which is my dream by the way) not even a lame run down the scale solo....after two years of on & off practicing(Im a guitarist who cant/ doesn't do solos) I came to realize I have zero improvisation skills...
A lot of top shelf involved in this remake . Larry probably watches this, smiles and says to himself, man, this kid takes this song to new places . Just beautiful Matteo . :)
Somebody please tell me Larry has had the pleasure of listening to this!! Absolutely incredible. Matteo, your guitar tone and phrasing is absolutely fantastic.
This young man is an absolutely unbelievable guitarist. He has such amazing technique and skill but most importantly - his musicality, the gift of the Muse. How he has managed to put together such a high level of aesthetics and delivery and at his age is totally mind blowing!
@@Simulacrum1310 Gentile Giuliano non crucciarti,questo chitarrista è un alieno sceso sulla terra per farci vedere dopo Segovia,Hendrix,Yepes,Page,Pass,Burrell,etc le sterminate potenzialità dello strumento.....suona tranquillo,confrontarsi con lui è come sfidare l'Altissimo !! Un saluto ( complimenti per l'annuncio di vendita,mi hai fatto morire dalle risate!)
I have no words for this. But at least I can say it is fantastic. this is no braindead shredding of scales. this guitar is telling a story. and so accurate perfect timings. it is unbelievable how gifted Matteo is.
Simply amazing... the 2:19 line has something I only found in some of the Bach masterpiece... It is absolutely lyrical, with a melodic structure I would say almost mathematical. This guy was touched by divine creativity
Matteo is just jaw-dropping in his execution, easily one of the finest players on the planet, but kudos to the other guys here. What a brilliant band, a bunch of superb musicians.
How do you play a Larry Carlton song as well as the master himself plus speak your own musical language at the same time? Utterly amazing and I'm sure Larry is truly impressed that his music can inspire the next generations.
AL DI MEOLA is one of Mancuso's biggest fans....ENOUGH SAID!!! THANK YOU MATTEO for bringing happiness in the world through your dedication and hard work. I love you man....😄🙏👍
Hi Matteo, this is Marcio, from Brazil. I heard this song for the first time in the 90's, it's a classic, Larry was very inspired when he wrote it. Your improvisation was fantastic, congratulations! Great band too!
No matter how many of Matteo’s videos I watch, he always astounds me. His technique, while astonishingly flawless, simply serves up some of the most delicious melodic guitar work ever recorded. His phrasing and creativity seem endless.
Beautiful. Great performance to all. Im very excited about Matteo. Been watching alot different of the young and upcoming guitarists for years and i havent seen anyone as melodic and diverse as this since Guthrie Govan started to gain fame on the Internet in the mid 2000's. And his right hand style is very unique, almost like classical guitar! Keep up the good work, watching with great hopes and excpectations! Also cheers to italy for consistently for(atleast) 50 years producing such great caliber of instrumentalists and musicians, especially in prog and fusion
I think you're writing in Japanese, you must have heard Masayoshi Takanaka who is from Japan? This song of Matteo's could fit right into one of his albums!
This is so far the peak of Matteo’s aristry. The technical mastery put to the service of the song, the incredibly mature phrasing, the wonderful melodic sense, the lightning-fast speed of his thinking and the sunny warmth of his temperament. His acoustic instrumental also showcases these qualities (minus the blazing speed). I hope he puts out more music where these qualities are expressed (his recent rocker (Drop D) is great but pales in comparison to what we see here.)
Matteo’s playing is amazing, in many ways I think of him as an extraordinary author with a complete command of language and story telling understanding the nuance of how subplots lend themselves to the greater overall story. If you actively listen to what Matteo is doing you’ll begin to hear all these small bebop, rock, blues, fusion, etc. guitar lines or licks. Instead of leaning on scales and arpeggios, he’s leaning on small phrases he’s just ingrained into his playing, he’s just fitting together all these different phrases so effortlessly and quickly with his improvisation. That’s the astounding part of his playing the speed and consistency with which he puts all the small passes together and how they all generally work to complement each other. In my mind that is what is setting him apart from others. This level of playing is also achievable you just need to listen and copy licks/lines from everything you listen to. Do it long enough as Matteo has and it will come through in your improvisation. I just can’t get enough, so tasty is his playing.
Tutto quello che profuma di Steely Dan basta a catturare la mia attenzione. Qui c'è un fenomeno alla chitarra e ottimi musicisti con grande gusto. bassista top senza strafare
They are all at a very high level. The rhythm section is stratospheric. Metalli changes chord at each beat with a spatial taste. Matteo is out of earth's orbit.
If everyone listened to this when they got up every morning, the world would be much better place! Matteo Mancuso just does something to your head!! Never was big on Smooth Jazz but this beyond Smooth
I have tears in my eyes over this! It took me right back to the first time I heard this. Like all of my guitarist friends, this song and the whole record opened our eyes to a new horizon to reach musically. Sorry for waxing semi-poetic but this was so well done! Bravo gentlemen and bravo Larry Carlton. 👏 ❤
The drummer's smile when he realized the magic that had happened just before. From 2:11 to 2:30. This guy's talent is that he knows how to master all musical styles, making them much better than the originals. Clearly, the primary creative phase is still missing. Let's give him time.
Ah , ragazzi , mi avete fatto passare tutta la vita davanti , Matteo risalta il brano con il suo strepitoso fraseggio , grazie di esistere , grazie di esistere
Probably the best guitar solo I've heard in years for this genre. This solo will stay with me forever. They reharmonized the song a little which also improve it.
What a performance by all four! Matteo's solo deserves a special mention, though. The first round is 'merely' brilliant but the second round when he opens the throttle is simply breathtaking. This made my day!
This is so damn bloody good! I really have tears in my eyes. The way you play this Matteo is so BEAUTIFUL!! Your phrasing is unique! Thank you for sharing this!
Io che ho il 33 giri originale che comprai nel suo anno di uscita, mi sono riemozionato come la prima volta che ascoltai il brano... Mancuso è un sistema solare a sé stante. E l'accostamento di Maurizio Metalli & Co rappresentano la sua perfetta galassia ospitante. Tutti STELLARI!!! 🙏🎶🎶🎶
The future of music is in good hands. The future of guitar is in good hands. I watched this a few times. The band is killing it!! Matteo, you are inspiring a whole new generation of guitar players in a fantastic way. The second you come to Montreal I will be there 100%!!!!
Sembra tutto così incredibile. Ma è realmente la più bella versione che abbia mai sentito. Oltre alla tecnica c'è tanto cuore! Impossibile non commuoversi. Tutti musicisti ad altissimo livello. Grazie Matteo!
Uno spettacolo per i timpani, e un cavalcare a briglia sciolte con i pensieri positivi e sensazioni inspiegabili che vellutano la pelle. Pura Magia! Grazie...
This is like a musical birthday present for me, and it’s not my birthday. This young man is so amazing! I have been waiting for his next offering and when I saw it was “Room 335”, I got my best headphones and tried not to look at his fingers and just listened to his immense genius. I imagine Larry would be very honored by this effort.
Best I've ever heard no doubt. His note choices are phenomenal and he's not limited by technique, gives him total freedom to play whatever he wants and he chooses extremely wisely.
Matteo, this has to rank at or near the very top of your recorded work, and yet it's not available on streaming services. Please fix that by releasing it in some official form! I absolutely ADORE this!
This moves me to tears. God hasn't abandoned us yet.
me too
the same
Yes, so beautiful.
God waited with that until this week (241106)
Unbelievable... Easily my newest favorite player.. and so young, man what a future he has in front of him.. Ive been playing for 40 plus year’s and I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone so fluid and precise.. Can’t get enough of it.. Hopefully I’ll get to see him play live someday.. Rock On

What would Larry said about this cover,,,,,never heard a better version!!?
He's definitely a monster.
With Gambale.
@Manfred Elsing I'd love to know Larry's thoughts on this
The 8 thumbs down are all from Dunlop pick Company.
LOL
Lol. But at least he'll never have pull all the cushions off the sofa trying to find that pick that was there a minute ago!
Genius ahah
Is that what they do at Dunlap make guitar picks?? I don't remember anything else from Dunlap? Maybe they have good stuff I don't know.

Nice to see Peter Szendofi on it! I played with him back in 2013 in Italy, great drummer!
The solo Mancuso does is off the chart. I don't know if i've heard anyone manage that level of precision on guitar.
Beautiful. Great performance to all. Im very excited about Matteo. Been watching alot different of the young and upcoming guitarists for years and i havent seen anyone as melodic and diverse as this since Guthrie Govan started to gain fame on the Internet in the mid 2000's. And his right hand style is very unique, almost like classical guitar! Keep up the good work, watching with great hopes and excpectations!
Also cheers to italy for consistently for(atleast) 50 years producing such great caliber of instrumentalists and musicians, especially in prog and fusion
Larry Carltonさんも、Matteo Mancusoさんも、どちらも大ファンです。Room 335を弾いてもらえて大変うれしいです。とても素晴らしい演奏です！！
I am 65years old.
I think you're writing in Japanese, you must have heard Masayoshi Takanaka who is from Japan? This song of Matteo's could fit right into one of his albums!
This is so far the peak of Matteo’s aristry. The technical mastery put to the service of the song, the incredibly mature phrasing, the wonderful melodic sense, the lightning-fast speed of his thinking and the sunny warmth of his temperament. His acoustic instrumental also showcases these qualities (minus the blazing speed). I hope he puts out more music where these qualities are expressed (his recent rocker (Drop D) is great but pales in comparison to what we see here.)
Drop D is a huge disappointment
Ma questo è un alieno !!!!spaventoso suona con una facilità impressionante facendo cose incredibili!!!!
Matteo’s playing is amazing, in many ways I think of him as an extraordinary author with a complete command of language and story telling understanding the nuance of how subplots lend themselves to the greater overall story.
If you actively listen to what Matteo is doing you’ll begin to hear all these small bebop, rock, blues, fusion, etc. guitar lines or licks. Instead of leaning on scales and arpeggios, he’s leaning on small phrases he’s just ingrained into his playing, he’s just fitting together all these different phrases so effortlessly and quickly with his improvisation.
That’s the astounding part of his playing the speed and consistency with which he puts all the small passes together and how they all generally work to complement each other.
In my mind that is what is setting him apart from others. This level of playing is also achievable you just need to listen and copy licks/lines from everything you listen to. Do it long enough as Matteo has and it will come through in your improvisation.
I just can’t get enough, so tasty is his playing.
Why is it only possible to hit like once? Incredible playing! ❤️
The question I often asked myself...
I know. Lol. And who on earth would thumbs down this? Are you kidding me???
Tutto quello che profuma di Steely Dan basta a catturare la mia attenzione. Qui c'è un fenomeno alla chitarra e ottimi musicisti con grande gusto. bassista top senza strafare
That was awesome Matteo. Larry would be proud. I love your phrasing and feel. That solo in the middle was insane.!!!
2:11 emotional rollercoaster, the best part for me, especially that guitarist
They are all at a very high level. The rhythm section is stratospheric. Metalli changes chord at each beat with a spatial taste. Matteo is out of earth's orbit.
If everyone listened to this when they got up every morning, the world would be much better place! Matteo Mancuso just does something to your head!! Never was big on Smooth Jazz but this beyond Smooth
Matteo is an incredible player and it's interesting that his collaborators here are all older guys.
His italian trio is formed by young people like Matteo
It’s because the older guys have been playing for decades and are on his level. It’s not common for someone to be as awesome as Matteo and young
Mateo kills it. Watching him lay it out makes me appreciate Larry all the more. Great rendition.
I think I never heard something better than this in my life. I'm on a 2 days loop of it. The lock on the chord changes is intoxicating. Thank you.
That solo was absolute perfection. I’m in awe.
I have tears in my eyes over this! It took me right back to the first time I heard this. Like all of my guitarist friends, this song and the whole record opened our eyes to a new horizon to reach musically. Sorry for waxing semi-poetic but this was so well done! Bravo gentlemen and bravo Larry Carlton. 👏 ❤
The drummer's smile when he realized the magic that had happened just before. From 2:11 to 2:30. This guy's talent is that he knows how to master all musical styles, making them much better than the originals. Clearly, the primary creative phase is still missing. Let's give him time.
Very impressive! fantastic technical mastery and a beautiful sense of melody ❤
Unbelievable talent from one so young!!Soulful with great note choices and phrasing that rivals playing for many years!
I was in tears of musical bliss!😭❤️ A song from one of my favourite players Mr 335. I never thought... well... there's Matteo.
2:23 - 2:28 look how relaxed Matteo is in that run, superb! ...
Look too at the smile of the drummer when he realized what Matteo had done. Seconds later.
I went and looked ...superb indeed!👌🏽😎
The note choices are so inspired, correct and precise, leading to a result so musical! This guy is shaping up to be my favourite player!
By far, this is the best version I've heard of this masterpiece. viva italia
Historical song by Larry Carlton....and Mancuso is awesome!
Yeah listening to it again for the umteenth time! Matteo Magnifico!👌🏽
Somewhere, Larry is either smiling or crying. This is just phenomenal.
Matteo’s mix of taste, knowledge, and facility is just breathtaking. Any given instrument might wait a generation or more to see such a wonder.
Lovely! musical, something nearly to perfection, what a players!
Ah , ragazzi , mi avete fatto passare tutta la vita davanti , Matteo risalta il brano con il suo strepitoso fraseggio , grazie di esistere , grazie di esistere
Probably the best guitar solo I've heard in years for this genre. This solo will stay with me forever. They reharmonized the song a little which also improve it.
What a performance by all four! Matteo's solo deserves a special mention, though. The first round is 'merely' brilliant but the second round when he opens the throttle is simply breathtaking. This made my day!
This is so damn bloody good! I really have tears in my eyes. The way you play this Matteo is so BEAUTIFUL!! Your phrasing is unique! Thank you for sharing this!
Io che ho il 33 giri originale che comprai nel suo anno di uscita, mi sono riemozionato come la prima volta che ascoltai il brano... Mancuso è un sistema solare a sé stante. E l'accostamento di Maurizio Metalli & Co rappresentano la sua perfetta galassia ospitante. Tutti STELLARI!!! 🙏🎶🎶🎶
Those hits around the 2:00 mark... :D
hey ross
@Kasen Omari get out scammer
The future of music is in good hands. The future of guitar is in good hands. I watched this a few times. The band is killing it!! Matteo, you are inspiring a whole new generation of guitar players in a fantastic way. The second you come to Montreal I will be there 100%!!!!
Matteo is pure gold. His talent is so unique.
Mateo...you are from another world🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Amazing musicianship and joy to listen. I hope Larry himself gets to see this...
He has done it
Sembra tutto così incredibile. Ma è realmente la più bella versione che abbia mai sentito. Oltre alla tecnica c'è tanto cuore! Impossibile non commuoversi. Tutti musicisti ad altissimo livello. Grazie Matteo!
2:22 - 2:28 My face just melted
Uno spettacolo per i timpani, e un cavalcare a briglia sciolte con i pensieri positivi e sensazioni inspiegabili che vellutano la pelle. Pura Magia! Grazie...
This is like a musical birthday present for me, and it’s not my birthday. This young man is so amazing! I have been waiting for his next offering and when I saw it was “Room 335”, I got my best headphones and tried not to look at his fingers and just listened to his immense genius. I imagine Larry would be very honored by this effort.
Yeah, I think Larry would love it! Hope he gets to meet up with Matteo.
Best I've ever heard no doubt. His note choices are phenomenal and he's not limited by technique, gives him total freedom to play whatever he wants and he chooses extremely wisely.
Fantastic band, perfect sound, Matteo captures Larry's spirit
2:22 ...Wait, what just happened? glorious!
Good gawd. Incredible ! I really like how Matteo put his own twist on it. Man---I hope LC sees this !
Matteo, this has to rank at or near the very top of your recorded work, and yet it's not available on streaming services. Please fix that by releasing it in some official form! I absolutely ADORE this!
