The masters and their brilliant friends -- on '12'. Superb fusion with masterful improvisation.

Lee is the man and always will be!

People always seem to criticize and ridicule that which they don't understand. Lee is a living legend, one of the best ever, and any seasoned player knows this. Whether you love this music or not, it's to be appreciated for its craftsmanship.

Lovin' the ES-335 tone. The highs sing and the lows are deep warm and mellow ..."like butter"

lee ritenour plays so smooth, i love it

I always love how Lee R. Shares the stage + gives props to his fellow musicians. He is a lovely person of phenomenal talent. Great upload!

the intro remembers me Stanley Carke´s song School Days! :) Lee is just incredible...awasome :)

Great song! Good drummer too - hes unpredicable, i love it!

That old man on the keys. It doesn't matter how old you are. What matters is whether you have it or not.

Lee Ritenour enlouqueceu a galera no Free Jaz Festival de 1987!!!!!!!!! BY Macgyver

Tight.

This is much better than the original studio version.

wauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...ese loco es casi tan bueno como el guitarrista de nicaragua en llamas!!!!...jejjej...jesy james....

Oscar!!!!

I don't understand songs like this. You have a natural organic sounding drummer, bassist and guitar player and then a keyboard that sounds like something you would buy in Zellers in the 80s.

Thank you. This performance was in Seoul, Korea. Recorded and broadcasted by EBS(Korean broadcasting company). And it was HD(High Definition). :) I recorded full length of this video on HD. ^^)V But it's size if about 7.5GB. T_T

I would love to have this song on my wedding day... lol

Oscar Seaton grooves on!

Oscar is a god!!!

This is so much better than the studio recording..., i think it sound bett with an electric than it does with the acoustic

wtf why so many dislikes, peoples ears must be broken. and another thing where the hell can a guy get a chord chart of this song

Yep, totally fits. The main guitar motif starts on the "1". I would say it's felt in 4/4 plus 3/4, and of course it would be written in 7/4 time sig.

If you don't like it - don't watch it - don't comment on it - don't start a conversation on youtube about it. Just go watch Slipknot and let us enjoy some real music. I swear, I just can't get away from KZfaq idiots to absolutely must argue in the comments of every video! It's amazing. Anyway, your Slipknot video is calling.

Oigan, si no les gusta este genero para que opinan de el......musica realmente brillante verdaderos monstruos

the drummer's name is oscar seaton. he really kicked ass in Lee's DVD "Overtime"

Oscar Seaton . Nice .

buena rola

Jul 23-Jul 25, 2010 @ Yoshi's Jazz Club in Oakland!

oh may got

LOL, there s an anit-Dave Grusin troll. This is badasss

7/8

Melvin Davis

Well, that red guitar is smokin' red hot especially in his hands.

Animal stuff, if you don't like you don't like it but these guys are animals.

I like Oscar's drumming style.

His name is Oscar Seaton, I saw him play once with George Benson. Dont know his age though.

Thanks to watching video what I uploaded. I have full length video of this performance. I'll upload other tunes of this performance when not busy. ^^ Actually I love Larry Carlton than Lee Ritenour. Just Lee's video is easy to get than Larry's that. :) And I love Pat Metheny too.

Look out John McLaughlin lick at 3:30.With the red guitar.

drummer: oops sorry i dropped the stick back there everyone else: seriously. we coudln't tell.

@m1xtap3 yeah...ooooohhhhhh

I didn't know Stringer Bell from " The Wire " played bass.

hahaha that's so true

He sounds exactly like the alien off futurama!

This has become a standard track Lee pulls out when performing live to demonstrate a little bit of several different musical genres.....basic rock, little fusion, little smooth jazz, little vamping, and some slick instrumental or solo improvisation. The version of this he plays with Mike Stern which is on Y-T is best in my mind because Lee is not using the "red guitar".....lol. He uses his Gibson sunburst Les Paul solid body which resonates rock treble sound better, overdrives better, and even lends itself to slide. But, at its core, this song's template isn't a complicated arrangement.... but largely a "hook" melody line with minimal accent thru octave chords.

"And I'm gonna play it with the red guitar...Ooooohh"

he sounds like vincent price so much..

Again; if you don't love jazz when it's played with this sort of skill and passion, there's something funadamentally wrong in your neural pathology! Love it! This is why, it's not the antiseptic, watered down, monotonously copied "smooth Jazz" formula that's killing the enthusiam for jazz in the listening community!

There used to be either an anti-Dave Grusin troll or computer glitch, but lately it seems to have been corrected

I'd like some of what you're smoking!! LOL

haha, oscar seaton dropped a stick at 6:32! it happens to the best drummers too :P

lee : i'm gonna play with the red guitar Audience: OHHHHHHHHHHH!

I do love when emperor palpatine picks up his stick

holy crap the bassist has 2 ken smiths just sitting there.

434 people are deaf!

@paisteguy799 yeah he's tight :)

Why so many dislikes? Please does someone explain?

@paisteguy799 doesn't matter; it's the same, depends on how you see it

the bassist is saying, "What did I have for breakfast this morning?" and the drummer is in a Robin Williams sword fight

No, it is Oscar Seaton

wow so that is to play music...

@m0b1liz3 doesn't seems so terrible to me.. possibly a Yamaha emulating-sampling an Hohner or Wurlitzer and FM synthesis (the marimba sound)

@JasonWB007 Your so right... But... eh, did you just.. Agree to your own comment?

isn't that omar hakim on drums? it is omar hakim!

@bertdanger Music is not a matter of age it never has been. Commenting is something you do when you have knowledge of the music you're commenting on. Topography is something you get at primary school. Which cave do you live in?

@roki92 Oscar Seaton

@SupernalOne His nickname isn't for "Captain Fingers" for nothing!

what's bass is melvin davis using in this song? Is it sadowsky? fender? or a Ken Smith Design?

maybe fender precision?

@naza220 Ya know, he probably could have said anything and they would've still done that... Lee: ...and I'm gonna play it with the judicial branch Audience: OHHHHHHHHHHHH!

pecah kepala

I don't see an honestly arrived at observation as "intolerant" I appreciate the talent of all musicians, I do however, reserve my right to allow my personal likes or otherwise to temper my opinion of same. As a musician of many years f training, I'd like to see "cutting edge" musicians have their place in the market.

that keyboard player should be playing jerry lee lewis ha jk

kinda looks like Nathan East on bass...

LOL, there's an anti-Dave Grusin troll

@JasonWB007 I agree. I bought LC's album to learn this song and, good as he and the album is, it's lame compared to this version.

dave grusin: change the organ part during the chorus, it interferes with the melody.. move down an octave and comp more.
