Really excellent breakdown of the guitar part in this classic song. Well played, sir. I can’t fathom the level of talent and the depth of creativity possessed by Larry Carlton to come up with this at the time in the studio with Donald and Walter. Mad scientists and musical alchemy at its finest. I’ve listened to this recording more times than I can recall over the years and it never gets old. This vid of yours is a nice peek behind the curtain. New subscriber now!
You know, there are so many guitar channels out there on youtube. Good to see there are still actually good players out there. You aren't fucking around!
Great job thumbs up. It is funny that absolutely no one, and I mean NO ONE, talks about how to play rhythm guitar behind that Carlton solo. That is a shame. Becker played a chunky rhythm part all through the live years start in the mid 90's, and everyone , and I mean EVERYONE, conveniently avoids it. RIP Walt and forgive these folks.
Agreed. Would love to be able to cheat a bit and have someone play through the rhythm part behind the first solo. Working on it now, looking for some kind of pattern to remember all those chords. Another good vid Dave, thanks.
urbansoul02 rhythm guitar is a dying art form and I don’t know why.., actually I DO know why.., but rather you can shred or not, a guitar solo is usually a couple :22 second blips in a 4:00 minute song.., what do you do the rest of the time ? 🧐
You nailed that solo perfectly ! One of the best solos Larry Carlton came up with... But hey you are in the studio with Fagen & Becker , you've got to deliver :-)
excellent bit of info on the rhythm guitar just straight to the point and clear no learner guitar bull about whatever. just write down the changes and away you go, just perfect. now back to the video for the lead guitar section
Dave, I I'm looking to find out how to play rhythm guitar during the guitar solo? of the dozens of kid Charlemagne guitae breakdown lessons on UA-cam , none go over how to play the rhythm during the solo, and it's got the tricky stops in it, so I'm really surprised not a single person has broken it down? Can you do this and put it on here or send me a message or something?
@@DavesGuitarChannel I tried to follow it and "create" a medley of parts going on, into a guitar rhythm.. I suppose if I was just trying to find a guitar rhythm it's like you say, buried low volume and deep in the mix. I'd like to play this song solo , at an open mic, on an acoustic guitar..and so seek help on the solo break. ☺️
@@DavesGuitarChannel Hi...did you ever pull together a suggested rhythm for the first solo. As you say it is so buried in the background I can't even hear it over the keyboard and lead.
I like your partscaster, looks like you have it set up real nice. Love your tutorial style, short and sweet, geared towards intermediate to advanced players who don't/shouldn't need tabs to learn a song (sorry, I had to throw that in).
Hey Dave....great lesson and you're a damn fine guitarist. You make it look so easy and I feel like I should relegate my (3) axes to kindling. :) Got a question for you though.....I've been playing rhythm guitar along with the recorded version for a loooong time. I'm having a hell of a time figuring out how to phrase the chords and it's really pissing me off that I'm just not envisioning how to translate what I hear to the guitar. I actually need to see someone doing it so here I am. Some of the later portion I can play with confidence. I have a gut feeling there may be many others out there who share my frustration.....but, I've been wrong in the past. :) So...do you have a video showing how you're just playing the chords/phrasing throughout the lead solo section? Do you know if my quest is on another link? I'm sure you're busy but I had to ask.....thanks again.....any comments or direction appreciated. Keep up the good work.
Good question..because as mentioned several times here in the comments: NO ONE provides any instruction on what the chords are behind the solo. (How about showing this Dave?)
@@danielhanson6546 Howdy Daniel. OK....this link is my 'play along' version: ua-cam.com/video/7TA0v6aVwQ4/v-deo.html Lead chords start at about 02:14. If you want my chord sheet and a small video I made to make it easier for us I'll need your email address. Please see my INTRO COMMENTS and check out the these two guitar players that were kind enough to graciously help me out. Due to the arthritis in my fingers I had to use a bit of both versions but I like them both equally. Ken Lasaine: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iH_ZP... (Ken Lasaine and I have very recently finished collaborating on an (8) song original project which is also on my YT channel) Michael O'Reilly: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ea0Ri... Hope that helps....
Thanks that's so weird I lived in Stoughton all my life up until 8 years ago . Wolf is that the same Boston guitar in West Bridgewater. By the way I enjoy all your video's right to the point for the advance players. I'm and old school player but can always use a little help. Love all your song selections. Thanks again.
Thanks Dave I got his website I'll check him out. That's funny I'm a lot older then you 69 to be exact but who knows it's a small world . I do remember Thanksgiving day football games with Canton. We never did well. I know you mention your cover band I think it was Fm Station. I don't know if your local. But if you are and have a facebook link to your band I love to check you guys .If not keep up the good work with your channel. Thanks again.......Paul@@DavesGuitarChannel
Great job on this video. Did you tab this video. I got up to outro with unison bends. I have not got the part where the position changes to 13th fret. Can you help me out.
I learned the whole thing from this video. Much better approach then the usual drudgery of those jaw-flappers that don't get into the lesson until 1:30 into the video cuz of blah blah blah Steely Dan blah blah blah Larry Carlton blah blah blah blah ! You went right to the heart. Thanks for a great video.
only took me 40 years to make it through the whole song your wonderful thank you Dave
Man man you're so good, playing that song with that kind of timing and attack, applause 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I love the way you play this like it's no sweat!!! You absolutely kill it my friend! thanks for the lesson, including the rhythm part!
Really nice man. The Warmouth parts and DiMarzios make for a great sounding strat.
Dude I love the speed at which you teach. Challenging 👍
Excellent tutorial, into the groove playing, and you have style my man! - One of the better guitar tuition UA-cam videos. Many thanks.
Dave, it is just AWESOME to watch you play and teach!
You nailed that solo perfectly ! One of the best solos Larry Carlton came up with... But hey you are in the studio with Fagen & Becker , you've got to deliver :-)
A real insight into a great song and solo. No BS just straight ahead soloing with great breakdown of notes.
Very good. I learned the solo and came here to learn the chords. I'm glad I ended here. Congratulations man👌. Thanks!
God I love that last bit good job davo
Excellent, thans for posting.
Juke box man! The best! You nailed that. I love Becker or Clark how the add the arpeggios to their soloing. Great stuff
excellent bit of info on the rhythm guitar just straight to the point and clear no learner guitar bull about whatever.
just write down the changes and away you go, just perfect. now back to the video for the lead guitar section
The slow down feature on UA-cam comes in handy!
I like your lessons. Like “ here it is” perfect!
You make very interesting video tutorials. -Many Thanks.
Additionally, I appreciated you telling us about the guitar spec's.
I think I just found my new favorite channel
Love this song! Thanks for the lesson.
There was a live stream I did at 3. I made the announcement in a video I am still editing. Jk ;)
Great lesson Dave. A "Black Cow" lesson would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Gerry Starr ua-cam.com/video/2pWLutA_kuM/v-deo.html

Cool, dave. I enjoyed your lesson and it was helpful.
Nice guitar!

Its extremely low in the mix. I know part of it is the same as the verses. I will give it a close listen post it. Thanks for watching.

Very Nice One...I think you looked cute with the headphones hahahahahahaha...😊👏👏👏💖💖💖
Great feel on the solo part! I've heard others play it and it sounded really wooden. Thanks for posting this.
Great tune but that solo that's one of my favorites. great job
I'm an Instant Fan hi Dave you are awesome
You ROCK!
You have a great ear to go with your guitsr skills.
Rockett Roll thanks
Nice job. You're a pro.
Very helpful lesson. One of the best out there for this song.

Larry Carlton is asking himself ``How does he do that?!''
By the way, nice job on the guit!
Just say a vid of Larry playing it note for note at the Iridium he must have had about 5 clams on it.
Hey Dave where in Boston did you take that guitar. I have a 1979 first edition SchecterI would like to modify. I need a pro thanks
There are two guys I use. Wolf at Boston guitar repair and Jim who is in Stoughton Mass on Bay rd
Thanks that's so weird I lived in Stoughton all my life up until 8 years ago . Wolf is that the same Boston guitar in West Bridgewater. By the way I enjoy all your video's right to the point for the advance players. I'm and old school player but can always use a little help. Love all your song selections. Thanks again.
No Wolf is in Boston and i think lives in North Shore. Not same guy in Bridgwater. I'm sure we know mutual people, I grew up in Canton.
Thanks Dave I got his website I'll check him out. That's funny I'm a lot older then you 69 to be exact but who knows it's a small world . I do remember Thanksgiving day football games with Canton.

@paultray7798 AM Station is live every Saturday night at Martini's in Plymouth. 9 to Midnight
Have you worked on any more recent Dan/Fagan/Becker tunes?
Rockett Roll no I haven't
wow, you are my litteral idol
th guitar: cool colour!
nice tatt! thinking of gettin' one for myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a big issue with this video… I think there’s a big mistake here… That mistake is that you don’t have a donate button.
:-)
Great job on this video. Did you tab this video. I got up to outro with unison bends. I have not got the part where the position changes to 13th fret. Can you help me out.
Yeah whats the part you are having trouble with the 10th fret part? where he slides up ?
Hi Dave. Yes it starts at about 8:07 on your video where the slide is from the 10th to 13th fret. Can you tabs the balance from that point to the end.
cazaresmar no prob
Is that you Barry
Not demonstrating the middle rythmn part (during the solo) is a pretty serious exclusion.
Yo Dave, I got the tabs posted!
I learned the whole thing from this video. Much better approach then the usual drudgery of those jaw-flappers that don't get into the lesson until 1:30 into the video cuz of blah blah blah Steely Dan blah blah blah Larry Carlton blah blah blah blah ! You went right to the heart. Thanks for a great video.
Your G6 is missing a D, so actually it's not a G6 at all, but a C major 7 inversion ;)
bakerrr333 your Cmaj7 is missing C. It's acceptable to play a chord and omit the 5 on the guitar. Someone else is playing the D.
Why do I even try...
It's very doable. I am currently learning it. I am by no means a "good" guitarist (yet).
Turn the distortion down when playing the chords
Should have stuck your own name on it.
