  • I play Kid Charlemagne by Steely Dan with my band The Experts. We have 4 guitar players and the leads are covered so I play the rhythm parts live but I was challenged to learn a solo for one of my classes this semester. I chose this one because it's so much fun and Larry Carlton does such a such nice job of playing over the changes.

    How do I know she nailed it? because It is one of the cleanest, most memorable solos ever written. It's a signature piece. If you know the solo, whether you can play it, sing it or just hum it, you know when someone is off. Well played!

    I do know there are many hardcore Steely Dan fans like myself (and my 19 year old son!) who are not nearly as proficient/practiced on guitar as you. Your cover gets the soul of the solo as well as the technical nail down. I love many diff genres of music but Steely Dan’s musicianship, great songs, and sly lyrical intelligence in one package are incomparable and once in a lifetime. Which is to say
    that if you cover more SD solos lots of folks will tune in. Your video has inspired me, a work in progress. If I may I would like to hear you cover the opening of Don’t take me Alive, thanks.again.

    Nice job on my favorite guitar solo. Larry Carlton just killed that one. Such a beautiful, melodic solo where every note counts. I learned this note for note when I was younger, when there was no such thing as tab and UA-cam, and I just had the recording to go on. That was a challenge and obsession. It took me a long time to figure out that tap at the end, as I'd never heard of that technique; it was not at all common at the time. I haven't played it in a while; maybe it's time to revisit it. Thanks for the inspiration.
