@bbnatedogg ..Fuck man ...IF I HAD ONE DOLLA FOR EVERY TIME I LOL AT YOUR COMMENT..I'D BE A MILLIONAIRE WITH A FUCK LOAD O DOLLAS..GENIUS COMMENT..JUST GENIUS!!:))
Very interesting that Larry says he takes a break from his instrument. I've read that the great bassist Gary Willis does the same thing to keep it fresh by getting away from music 24/7 and living life.
Oh thank f*ck! My hero Larry Carlton just admitted he don't know shit about modes! I am so happy to hear that Larry...'cos now I know we really do have something in common! ;)
@GeoStratocaster He must've learnt about them afterwards because he does speak about modes & scales today. it isn't necessary. Modes are just parts of the scale played out of context.
One of the 1st time modes were used was in Miles Davis 'Kind Of Blue'.
I ,personally,find it hard to remember scales & modes and in the end, it's the sound that's important not the theory.
Wes Montgomery didn't know anything about theory..didn't even read chord boxes.
Charming video. Larry at his best... relaxed and in person. Sittin' on the couch in the bus and demonstrating masterful moments. Thanks for sharing this!
awesome!!!!!

One of the best music interviews on youtube.
He speaks wonderful sense. He's got the approach of all the masters like Wes Montgomery.i.e he listens rather than uses too much formality.

I'd get so pissed off if someone was asking me about "positions" I'd used in a guitar solo.

He said "I practice tunes but not scales>"
