I bought this around 2007 along with George Lynch's REH and Alexi Laiho's Rock House dvd's. From those 3 dudes, Carl's playing made my jaw hit the floor the hardest. It was just so unlike anything my little metal ears had ever heard. Not a single normal scale run or over done pentatonic lick in sight.
Thanks for posting this. I’ve been proudly obsessed with Carl’s playing for the better part of 20yrs or so. The man is incredible!
Carl is an absolute monster player!!
Thank you Levi. This brings back some good memories. Me today is an old dude born in the early 70s. When I first saw this video back in the 90s I was shocked. Never heard anyone play like that. Those kinds of lines and intervallic playing was new to me. I was totally blown away. Your ability to transcribe is the best I have ever seen. Always spot on. Thank you so much for your hard work.
I got to be Carl's chauffeur for the day, picked him up from Heathrow Airport, went to the pub for dinner. He's a really down to earth top guy.
Definitely one of my favourite players, bought all his albums and books.
I 1st saw this video a few years ago and was blown away. His [playing is just so weird, in a good way, really unique in my opinion, and dude still shreds which I love.
Carl makes those interval jumps seamlessly. Super nice guy as well.
What he's doing is distinctly his own but it brings to mind Eric Johnson to a certain degree with his use of unique interval choice and pentatonics.
He's much more sophisticated harmonically than EJ IMO, but sometimes the phrasing does seem a bit similar.
@@atquinn1975 More harmonically sophisticated than EJ? We all have our own opinions, but that was ridiculous.
Like an Eric Johnson with a BITE!
It's not inaccurate. Eric is amazing, but Carl can play anything.
Maybe too much like him. I don't know who got what from who.. But he's overdoing that arpeggio thing in my opinion. But I like the tone and timing. And pretty good story telling
I love Carl's playing.Seen him several times. Thanks for another great pick !
So I've been working on stuff like this heavily. Changing between e minor pentatonic and e major pentatonic and then throwing in notes of their respective diatonic scales as well. It's so much fun but takes a lot of... brain to wrap your head around it, a lot of the notes will work but some just straight up dont, it's all about the resolution of the line. It's a super fun exercise
Came across Carl a few years ago and like you he influenced my own playing massively. Great video!
There are some people for whom Strats are the only guitars that it makes sense for them to play and Carl Verheyen is one of those people. He makes it absolutely sing.
Just like Yngwie. That’s why Fender made him the first artist to have a signature model.
One of the most unique and original guitarists I ever heard.
I remember reading about Carl a lot in guitar mags back before the internet was a way we could just check players out. Once that was finally an option and I saw some of his early clips on UA-cam I totally got the hype. He has some really interesting lines and has the kinda musical sense that all the top sessions players do. Guys like Carl and Brent mason and Steve lukather and Tim pierce go way too unrecognized for contributions. But I guess that’s the life of session guys
His soloing without scales book is brilliant.
Thanks for show this guitarrist.
I never hear him.
Strong hug from Manaus
Reminds me a bit of Masayoshi Takanakas play! I love it
I remember when Carl used to play Jazz locally. It was fun to go listen to him then. Oh well...
Got into Carl's music just about a year ago. Incredible musician, very very original and soooo underrated. Thanks for the transcription!
Holy moly... Not just fast, clean, and tight but so tasty. Real fusion.
You guys need to research Don Mock. Don was a GIT instructor & played mind blowing lines & extremely crazy intervals!
You need to look at my channel before commenting
@@LeviClay Good on you featuring Don!
Amazing how many great players there are, that I never heard of before.
Wow! Thank you Levi. Great stuff.
Intervals are your friend and will take you far.
I haven’t seen anyone mention the fact that Carl has also played with SuperTramp for many years. He is awesome..
I've met Carl a number of times. He use to come into a couple of guitar shops I hung out in. Super nice guy and he plays a ton of styles. He really should be much more well known.
He’s got so many fun tricks up his sleeve. Just go watch some short lesson with him.
Yes Carl is the man. I don't think there's much he couldn't play.
I remember watching his "intervallic rock" video as a youngster - He's mind boggling, no question.
What I think is the most important aspect, though, and it's not touched upon in this (great) transcription, nor in the video as far as I recall, is his *picking technique*.
That's what put me off back then, I just didn't have the tools to analyze pure technique. Now that I see him playing again after 30 years or so, I realize he was one of the first to use mixed hybrid and throw finger strokes to cover the string skipping...
All stuff that, if you explained it early on, you would have done a huge service to humanity.
As a bedroom player with some experience, I came to realize what I believe to be quite an universal truth: you express yourself *ALWAYS* through technique. In other words: if you found a way to pick your lines a certain way, you'll tend to group notes in that particular way and "sound like that". If you found an original way to cover intervals with "exotic" techniques, like Carl does, or with two-hand tapping, or with legato and what not, think Brett Garsed or Richie Kotzen, then you'll build your lines around those intervals that you can cover witht that technique.
Or think Benson or Gambale and their unbelievable sweep prowess... Each top player has his own way of "creating notes" and uses that. The notes he plays are most of the time a consequence of what he can play 'comfortably'.
Wow! Hadn't heard of him before. What a talent, presumably from the 80's (Guessing by the shirt :D)
He was 'just' an up and coming jazz player when I first saw him in 1977 at a Newport Beach restaurant. He has covered literally every genre since then.
I had the pleasure to play with Carl and spend a evening with him and the band a great person
God bless him ❤
Yeah, he is the man! Amazing player, with great tone and feel!
Carl has chopped wood and carried water in every genre- jazz, rock, blues, classical, fingerstyle- you name it. There are many commercials and TV shows, too.
Verheyen's intervallic melodic phrasing is so tasty! Thanks for transcribing!
I’m glad i discovered your channel Levi. The algorithm did well
speed, melody, and tone. does this dude have it all or what
I have seen Carl perform and he is indeed an amazing guitarist.
I haven’t seen any videos of Carl in a long while. Brings to mind a mix between Robben Ford and Jimmy Herring. Awesome playing!
Superb he makes it look so easy and natural
Outstanding, thank you!!
Life guys life is straight up getting CHANGED by every guitar player he sees.
Wow wow. Beautiful
By the mouth in the begining i think he looks like Roben Ford. Thanks for show this guitarrist, i don't knew! Hi from Brazil.
Levi, thanks for exposing me to another great guitarist. Love this channel.
Awesome thanks!!!!!!!!
Now this guy is a WINNER! His style is pleasing to the ear! Where as some before "were just speed freaks" with very little finesse! He's got a bit of blues, rock and fusion all the way! And he's fast, but not as fast as, the speed of light! When you're going too fast, it's all a blur!!
His technic almost stands out as much as his shirt 😄
This guy is so -tasty line driven expressionist!!! Love his style!!!
The caption read my mind.
wow he's awesome man!
And for some people guys like gilmour are guitar gods and real virtuosos like this gentleman are mostly anonymous. Life is not fair
Man those line! He adds great variety and still follows the basic melody. Real smooth like!
It would be cool if you wrote what arp they was using above the bar.
Where the hell was this guy when I was growing up? great player...
I feel like these ideas stick in your head so much that learning to play like this would really change your improvising in a way that could become repetitive if you just practice specific intervals
so tasteful
Carl definitely shreds at times in this video. I guess some people define “shred” negatively, whole others see it more as another tool to use for a specific purpose.
I've been a fan of Carl's forever - first came across his playing on an 80s jazz-fusion album called Trolltown by Richard Elliot. Might sound a little like smooth jazz at first, but it isn't. Some killer solos and rhythm playing on that album.
Jeez!! Carl is a monster of nightmares! My God! By the way Levi, just bought your guided practice book and received it today. Very much excited to get to work on it. Didn't know you were a fellow MI grad (I'm a 2010 grad) glad to buy from an MI alum. Carl was there when I attended, but I never had the pleasure of his open counseling. Just seen him around campus. Anyway, I love all your work. I'll be following you more religiously.
Yep, been on my radar for awhile. Trading 8s is a great LP, “Taxman” has a great “police” vibe. And his Robben Ford collaboration it great too, the whole LP.
Yeah, my instructor at AIM/MI (Jimmy Herring) also pushed intervals and recognizing intervals, ear training, etc
Cool. I saw him play at the Baked Potato about 15 years ago or so. Very inventive player and his band was super tight!
Dudes phrasing is amazing.
An all-around amazing guitar player!
Carl is so underrated!
such nice phrasing
Wow. That guy kills!!
Amazing player Levi
I didn't know Bill Hicks played guitar!
Bill actually did play guitar, quite well. EJ was his favorite player.
I completely can understand that! :-)
Dude this blew my mind!
Agreed. He's bloody good. 😳
Same here! Carl is a giant!
Supertramp was a great band!
Lots of Larry Carlton influence but very unique too. Wow. Great tone.
I recently learned about this guy when I listened to one of Chad Wackerman's (The late Allan Holdsworth's drummer) albums.
Sounds like the late Japanese guitarist for the group Prism as well as the guitarist for another Japanese fusion group called Fragile.
Hey Levi, here's something from 1975 that's ahead of its time. It gets wild around the 4:30 mark. Players like Paul Gilbert, Steve Vai, Joe B and Zack Wylde sight Frank Marino as an early influence and speak highly of him, so it's kinda going back to the source. Check it out, an awesome live performance. ua-cam.com/video/kZzhQXG7OfY/v-deo.html
I hear a lot of Robin Ford in his playing which definitely is not a bad thing
Carl is great. Levi have you ever covered Wayne Krantz?
funny, all the quick lines start with a pull-off. even when he picks it he takes a step back before moving forward. thanks for letting me see that.
Nice video - 1st time I've heard him - any recommendations on a good album / CD to listen to ?
Very cool,and almost kind of strange!
Yeah, him & Ted Greene!
Beast.
He reminds me of Steve Morris
3:09 to 3:12 that was sick!

Itervallic approach to lead guitar
Thank you in advance
so fking good. congrats on 6.66k👹 subs
Wow! Never heard him. So good. What year?
I almost forgot about Carl🤦
Another one of those truly great guitarists that didn't get his due respect commercially
Sounds better slower lol, maybe thats just me… great video!!!
Sick! 😎
First time I heard of this guy but he is fantastic. Very mature and sensible playing. I can see why many people hire him at sessions. I am not sure of the originality you speak of though. His intervalic work seems related to guys like Brett Garsed.
True, except he was doing these really creative phrasing and intervallic jumps and slides while Brett Garsed was recording for Nelson's first album. So maybe Brett Garsed sounds like Carl? ;-)
@@karlsarch it very well could be. I actually enjoy Carl's playing more. He seems to have a tone that I enjoy more too. This is the only thing I've heard from him. So I can't comment on the body of work he has.
Bloody hell!
got DAYUM
fuck yeahhhhh!!
hold my bong....
Kinda sounds like Eric Johnson meets blues saraceno
Been listening to Carl since Garage Sale came out. One of my favorite players of all time.
Great album!
I need that shirt.
I think you'll find that's Chevy Chase in a wig
Reminds me a bit of Robben Ford
