    What a cool jam!! So nice to see the effect of good communication within the group before playing …. And listen to the space and interaction between all musicians… Everyone is focused and connected because you don’t really know how it will come out… This is a good example of how to experience to live in the now… Great track Love it!

I've studied Larry's style for many years, and finally,, I've reached a high level of accomplishment. I fell in love with Larry's playing years ago after his album, "Strikes Twice" came out in 1981! I have devoted all my attention to learning his string bending, sliding in and out of target notes, his arpeggio and color tone notes are very difficult to learn, as I'm sure you already know! LOL! I really enjoyed listening to both this video, and your album songs on apple music! best wishes to you and keep on making music Soren!!! God bless!!!

      @@SorenReiff hey man it was all in fun, but people nowdays are crazy. If you can't play fusion they think you're not all that great. In reality, I'm a fan of EC's. I know he has the ability to do it. I just wish that he'd make a video of him playing some fusion stuff so that he could shut everyone's mouth. I know Jimmy Page can do it. I seen him do it way back in the 70's, but he didn't want to do too much because he didn't want to tarnish his hip image. Behind the scene, JP used to play Jazz Standards, and he played FUSION with John Mclaughlin. Google it. JP actually learned Fusion from John way back in the 70's, but he wanted that reckless rock image because that's his cash cow.🤣
