Obviously the two men on guitars are legends in jazz. But that drummer!! Those skins were begging for mercy after the pounding he gave them. Just an outstanding performance.
The most significant musicians in my whole lifetime!! Saw them both many times both friends!! As a guitarist myself they influenced me since the 70s!!!
Larry's right hand has always blown me away! He gets so many amazing tones, attacks, dynamics, with such smoothness and effortlessness! Fun to listen to, hard to imitate! Yes!
Every time I hear this song, i can't help remarking about the drummer,,, wow!!! Excellent song all around,,, so fresh and exciting, great composition!!!
UNREAL,,, WHAT A GREAT VERSION OF "L.A. UNDERGROUND"!!! I'M ALWAYS AMAZED AT LARRY CARLTON! LEE IS SUPERB TOO,, THANK GOD FOR REAL TALENT! IF ONLY THE YOUNG PEOPLE WOULD LISTEN TO THIS STUFF AND KNOW WHAT'S TRULY GOOD MUSIC!
Fantastic live version of a great studio jam between two top notch guitarists. Lee plays a jazz style guitar, hence the smoother sounding notes. Larry has a more jazz/rock style, kind of like Al DiMeola.
@geetarnut I totally understand your point, but I would have never fully appreciated this when I was younger. This is 100% good taste man, in every single note they play.
Hi ! In this video, we can compare Lee Ritenour's style and Larry Carlton's one. I've' always prefered Lee Ritenour's style, but that engages just myself ; in fact, I like both, they are really great guitarists. BYE !
Que dúo tan genial de guitarristas!! ... y el baterista es de primera línea, también un tipo genial .. el sostenido que se manda es único! ... la música de mi vida es el jazz!! - saludos desde - LIMA-PERU
@gerraywest I agree with you except to add that each of these superb musicians & guitarists are EQUALLY adept at what they do and at times can mimic each other due to there experience in the music world . Each are Chameleons as they are BOTH ... STYLISTS .... and have a deep understanding of what to play as well as what NOT to play in any given circumstance . And yet both are of the same coin . It matters not who is on the front or the back. Incredible muscians . Period.
Larry Carlton, Lee Ritenour, Rick Jackson (keys,) Melvin Davis (bass,) and Land Richards (drums.) you would be hard pressed to find 5 more talented musicians! Studio musicians can literally play anything, but not may can play like this. Simply sublime. I've made some efforts to find this performance on CD or DVD and it's no longer produced. We should be thankful we have this video. Thanks for posting!!!!!!!!!!
Lee the more jazzier of the two influenced by Wes Montgomery. No doubt that Larry’s lead work was spectacular jazz rock fusion playing. He is something else.
i might be wrong but on this take they have less grrove than the album version or even the gig they had in Japan one year earlier... Still it's good to hear 'em play that tune : i love it.

I love this. Something you don't see to often Larry on a Les Paul and not his 335.
AWESOME GUITARISTS !!!!!!!
The best version by far. If you cant feel that groove, check yourself into the hospital.
Colorful
Its the keyboard sounds that get me.. really evokes that "glen gary glen ross" soundtrack vibe...

Larry on a 57 Les Paul Goldtop. Sounds great!!
Świetny kawałek.
Larry at the six minute mark is insane!
I think the drummer is Land Richards
Cool jazz!
Drummer ROCKS!!!

Muito bom 🙌
