- EARL KLUGH Interviewed by Ramsey Lewis & "Highway Song"
Earl Klugh (pronounced "Clue") (born September 16, 1953,[1] in Detroit, Michigan[4]) is an American smooth jazz[2]/crossover jazz/jazz fusion[3] guitarist and composer.
At the age of 13, Klugh was captivated by the guitar playing of Chet Atkins when Atkins made an appearance on the Perry Como Show. Klugh was a performing guest on several of Atkins' albums. Atkins, reciprocating as well, joined Earl on his Magic In Your Eyes album. Klugh also appeared with Chet Atkins on several television programs, including Hee Haw and a 1994 TV special entitled "Read my Licks". Klugh was also influenced by Bob James, Ray Parker Jr, Wes Montgomery and Laurindo Almeida. His sound is a blend of these jazz, pop and rhythm and blues influences, forming a potpourri of sweet contemporary music original to only him.[5]
Klugh's first recording, at age 15, was on Yusef Lateef's Suite 16. He played on George Benson's White Rabbit album and two years later, in 1973, joined his touring band.[4]
For their album One on One, Klugh and Bob James received a Grammy award for Best Pop Instrumental Performance of 1981. He has since received 12 Grammy nods, millions of record and CD sales, and continues touring worldwide to this day.
Klugh has recorded over 30 albums including 23 Top Ten charting records -- five of them No. 1 - on Billboard's Jazz Album chart. With 2008's The Spice of Life, Klugh earned his 12th career Grammy nomination - his second nomination and release on the independent Koch label.
Each spring,[6] Klugh hosts a special Weekend of Jazz (www.weekendofjazz.com/index.html) featuring jazz legends and greats at the Five-Star Broadmoor Hotel & Resort in Colorado Springs. Jazz greats including Ramsey Lewis, Patti Austin, Chuck Mangione, Bob James, Joe Sample, Chris Botti, Roberta Flack, and Arturo Sandoval have all performed at the annual event set in foot of the Colorado Rockies. In November 2010 Klugh brought the 'Weekend of Jazz' to Kiawah Island Golf Resort in South Carolina.[7] In November 10--12, 2011 the second Weekend of Jazz at the Kiawah Island Resort is scheduled.

Amazing talent, amazing gift for music, I dream of playing guitar like Earl one day if the Lord spares me, God bless you Earl :)
I once dreamed I was playing like him and woke up crying from the emotion.
@@davidacevedo8620 wow...his music is very creative, deep and puts one's mind in a contemplative mode...it is very beautiful and inspiring...God has truly blessed this man with unbelievable talent.
Never heard this one. The Earl klugh sound. Like he said it starts with the nylon string guitar and playing with his fingers. His unique sound is completed by the arpeggios that he does, the scales, brushing across certain types of cords that he fingers often times a slash/cord and a certain structure of his songs. That's it that's Earl.👍💯🎸🎶
Super smooth with the Atomic Dog
Kedvencem.
People that put their thumbs down they need to just stay offline, with that negative life.
I will guarantee, all of the thumbs down, are frustrated guitarist and jealous Earl haters. 🤷♂️
Keep workin it
My dream, can you come in Cameroon, in Central Africa? We are verry poor to invit you, but we hope that one day, dream will come true
