Looking at the trend above the progress bar it's safe to say LOTS of viewers (incl. this one) come here for the Eric Johnson guitar solo 😄! But Carole King AND the rest of the band is really worthwhile too! Great pop music.🙂
As many years as I've been a fan of Carole's I never knew Eric Johnson played with her. He's great, too. My teenaged guitar playing son used to listen to his music about 20 years ago and that's how I first heard him.
The story I heard was Prince saw him in a club and told Warner Brothers to sign him. Not sure how accurate that is but even if part of it is true, that would be cool.
I love how Eric looks behind him when carol says his name. Thats so funny how humble he is when he fuckin knows he's a badass guitarist. He has to know even back then then he was just a fucking master guitarist
Hey toomany guitars - yes that is surprising - till 1985. Interesting to hear him on a LesPaul .Notice how much Carole King thinks of him . Also your comment about him being 'otherworldly ' tells me you know a lot about guitar ! Of all the people on the cover of Guitar Player Magazine - Eric is the one who more than lived up to the hype . What really shocked me is later after UA-cam - I realized that he is even better live than on his albums . I am glad EJ is here and still around .
I didn't know a video of this song DOES exist!! it's really nice to see how Carole King explore a more dynamic (..and a bit funky sound, IMHO) feel in her music. A great video, not to mention EJ 's doing the solo!! thank you for posting this, really, really thank you!
I know its sometimes cliche to say: But musically speaking, Carol King was so freekn ahead of her time. And seeing a forever young and skinny Eric Johnson playing an LP instead of a Stratocaster is trippy...
Yes, Waddy Wachtel said King gave him his first big tour job as well-said her Thoroughbred album was the conduit to all his 70s and 80s work for so many artists.
How about that? I was listening to this album on the way in to work, and came to see if there was any footage of Carole in this period and VOILA. ONE TO ONE was actually my intro to Carole (as a kid in the mid-80s). This song and "Golden Man" are my favorites from this album. An underappreciated and VERY soulful album!
What kind of fool do you think I am To believe you really give a damn You're just lookin' out for number one You wanna win, no way you're gonna lose Between me and you, which one will you choose I know you're lookin' out for number one Just look behind the silver screen you've built around yourself You will find you're just the same as anybody else And that's allright What kind of fool are you gonna be There's a locked-up soul and you hold the key But you're too busy lookin' out for number one What will you do, will you go through the day Only half alive, who are you anyway Just lookin' out for number one What kind of chance are you willing to take Are you willing to give just a little bit for your own sake That's really lookin' out for number one Really lookin' out for number one Lookin' out for number one

"Eric Johnson..." And he looked behind him like "Who? Me?" 😆
That has to be one of the best Les Paul tones I've ever heard, cool yet warm, masterful!
I thought the same thing!

Carole knows how to have fun. You can see how much joy she gets from the music. I love watching her!
Incredible that Eric went largely unnoticed until around 1985. He was playing otherworldy guitar already in the mid 70s.
The story I heard was Prince saw him in a club and told Warner Brothers to sign him. Not sure how accurate that is but even if part of it is true, that would be cool.
@@SteveBello I believe he watching public access television and saw the EJ 1984 performance
When you hear his playing it really is otherworldy. Well-put.
its such an unmistakeable Eric Johnson 'tone'... Even back then it was so unique as it still is today!
I love how Eric looks behind him when carol says his name. Thats so funny how humble he is when he fuckin knows he's a badass guitarist. He has to know even back then then he was just a fucking master guitarist
Eric Johnson, Reese Wynans wow!
Don't forget Steve Meador on drums. He was one of Eric's early trio drummers back in the Eric Johnson and The Avenue days.

Cooler Song. Great Guitar Solo from Eric Johnson!
Eric's like, "Oh, that solo? Oh I was just foolin around."
Eu amo todo o trabalho da Carole King. E simplesmente the best!!!!!!!! 😘
Eric is such joy to watch.
What a trip! I didn't know Eric ever played with Carol King. How cool! He is one of my all-time favorite guitar players! :)
William H Macy on Rhythm guitar/back ground vocals. Impressive
I didn't know a video of this song DOES exist!! it's really nice to see how Carole King explore a more dynamic (..and a bit funky sound, IMHO) feel in her music. A great video, not to mention EJ 's doing the solo!! thank you for posting this, really, really thank you!
Beautiful!!!

She is so energetic..
Mesa Boogie MkI I think. Eric chased the sound in his head which was better than most if not everyone.
STUPENDOUS PERFORMANCE BY TWO SUPERLATIVE ARTISTS
TWO ? WTF…
Hadn't seen this before. Anyone else hear the signature Eric Johnson tone on the Les Paul?
Okay Reese Wynans. I’m surprised no one noticed this yet.
I havent watched this in a while and im embarrassed to say i never noticed reese so thx for mentioning him

Carole King is a cool chick.
What kind of fool do you think I am
To believe you really give a damn
You're just lookin' out for number one
You wanna win, no way you're gonna lose
Between me and you, which one will you choose
I know you're lookin' out for number one
Just look behind the silver screen you've built around yourself
You will find you're just the same as anybody else
And that's allright
What kind of fool are you gonna be
There's a locked-up soul and you hold the key
But you're too busy lookin' out for number one
What will you do, will you go through the day
Only half alive, who are you anyway
Just lookin' out for number one
What kind of chance are you willing to take
Are you willing to give just a little bit for your own sake
That's really lookin' out for number one
Really lookin' out for number one
Lookin' out for number one
hay una cancion de carole king que esta buenisima como todas pero que no logro encontrar ,,, se llama one ,,,
Righteous EJ
EJ is so much like Jeff Beck here.
True looks like a member of the faces or the yardbirds 😂
The crowd be like, "What the f*** is that??!! **mind blown
For Eric's solo, go to 3:05.........
...and at 3:25 you hear a note slide up but his fingers don't! I want to learn that technique!
Anybody know how old Eric was in this video?
+rbagel55 He would have been 27. Eric was born in August 1954.
Didn't EJ also play piano on a Carole King record?
I have this album from ATLANTIC 1982 , Excellent Album 💿, I love ❤️ her she’s the greatest 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸
I am guessing Eric Johnson was about twelve in that video.
Tom Byron, lead guitar.
What year was this
1982.
Whos your daddy? :) 3:49
like some jeff beck ish?
EJ looks atad uncomfy behind the other guitar player!
