Was asking if I were on a deserted island with only one band and their catalog to hear…… Steely Dan would be my pic….. But yet i am 57 years old… lol. Wish that the youth of our times could get a grasp on some of this fantastic music. I feel that so many young kids could get so much from our generation of music but are unaware unfortunately that it even exists…

The Kid Charlemange solo must be the coolest collection of licks ever recorded. No unnecessary filler, just pure groove and sophistication. The Dan just had it together, didn't they? The songwriting, the production, the players. They were rocks parallel to German engineering.

My brush with Larry Carlton. Was living outside Nashville in Lebanon, TN. Married but going out some evenings. Casually talking to a nice lady - mentioned I was a guitar player - she mentioned her Ex husband was Larry Carlton. (Kind of funny - like top that!) I said "I love Larry Carlton". Anyway, her son Travis or TJ (I still remember "blues for TJ" song.) she gave me his number and we jammed numerous times. - along with beak - larger nosed drummer. Sometimes Larry would appear. He was kind enough to listen to my entire CD that I'd just released. He said you're going for that style. Wish I knew what he meant. Beautiful human. He subsequently heard in his church that I was in a major motorcycle accident and sent me a labeled guitar pick and a nice note.

Fred, the owner, quickly hooked me up with a tape recorder in the back room, and then he introduced me to Larry ! Larry listened to my song, then we turned on the tape recorder, Larry played some wonderful with me, and I had a demo ! What a beautiful moment with Fred and Larry. Thank you :)

He said that if he would have dove into music theory, he doubts that he would have approached the guitar the same way.

What a great work-out to develop technique. Larry talking about "poly-chords," opens so many doors to improvisation; to be able to play in a different key that spreads its color over the top of the music's framework. It's so easy to see superimposed triads on a keyboard, but once you translate the concept to the guitar, the possibilities are almost infinite.

I was a sophomore in high school, playing trumpet in the marching band, and one night at a friend's house his older brother (who was 19 or 20 y/o at the time) put The Royal Scam on the stereo in the basement rec room and turned up the volume. Mind blown. The opening bars of 'Don't Take Me Alive' were like nothing I'd ever heard before. And like Rick, I still love that album to this day. 👍

I love how people argue that music theory is limiting, but hearing him have the realization of triads existing within other chords and expanding on that idea resulting in his unique take on jazz is beautiful. I had the same realization about a year ago and got way too stoked and told all my music buddies about it when you notice all of a sudden chords become less implicative about their uses. But I never practiced enough to develop that into anything. I'm sure listening to Larry for the past 10 years was the reason i noticed in the first place.

It was the two WMTSGs, "Kid Charlemagne" and "Don't Take Me Alive," that originally brought me to Rick's channel (This was after I'd been researching a street in Queens NY that was being dedicated to Walter Becker after his passing.) Without question Larry Carlton is the star of those two songs (although Donald Fagen going into conversation mode re: "gas in the car" always stops me in my tracks). Quite a treat to hear how music took shape in his head as a youngster and through his life experiences. All those different sources -- and he comes up with performances like these that are unlike ANYthing else.

Another great interview with one of my favorite musicians! He’s such a crucial part of the sound of so many Steely Dan songs. And what a sweet guy.

The Steely Dan Triad from Royal Scam, Kid Charlemagne, Caves of Altamira, Don't take me Alive. Only maybe beaten by Black Cow, Aja, Deacon Blues. Who else could ever start off 2 back to back albums with three songs like this?

I used to hang at The Spud almost daily (I helped pour the concrete patio by the back door - Justin was 4 years old) and we would just stay until that nights' show (Larry was every Tuesday I think, or Rit was Tues and Larry was every Monday). Smoking was allowed indoors and Larry smoked like a chimney. But if he set his smoke down and started playing one of us would always grab it and smoke the rest of it. He would get pissed so we would light him another, he'd take a hit, set it down, repeat. Ha! My favorite memory was when Eric Clapton and Phil Collins walked in after playing The Forum. Larry launched into Layla, which of course, he covered years later.

Rick. Your interviews are wonderful. Your musicianship and personality in combination with your willingness to listen makes you the perfect interviewer. Larry is one of my old time favorites and this is amazing. I have also heard he's an avid fisherman - love that as well!!! Many many thanks

I enjoyed that Rick. Very casual with so much information. Larry was born with that 335. His note choices, phrasing,bends,etc wow. A treat every listen. I'm really liking this new channel 👍
