"Tequila" song No. 3 album "Friends" (1983) by Larry Carlton, to whom he had a Grammy nomination. Here you can find great musicians like Al Jarreau, BB King, Jeff Porcaro and many others. This is definitely the best cover I've ever heard of this old and famous song: Al Jarreau with an amazing scat vocals, beautiful horn solos and sax and guitar of Larry Carlton pack to fit this song well known, giving a new meaning and certainly more sophisticated than the original.
Good listening.
********************************
"Tequila" canzone n° 3 dell'album "Friends"(1983) di Larry Carlton, per il quale ha avuto un Grammy Nomination. Qui possiamo trovare grandi musicisti come Al Jarreau, B.B. King, Jeff Porcaro e molti altri. Questa è sicuramente la cover migliore che abbia mai sentito di questo vecchio e famoso brano: uno strepitoso Al Jarreau ai vocalizzi scat, belli assoli di fiati e sax e la chitarra di Larry Carlton confezionano al meglio questo brano ben noto, dandogli un sapore nuovo e sicuramente più sofisticato rispetto all'originale. Buon ascolto.

By the time Larry Carlton recorded Friends, his status as a guitar legend had already been established. In addition to being admired by musicians, he was also loved by Muzak programmers. His blend of happy pop-jazz was the perfect background music for dentist offices. For those who care to listen closer, there is some excellent guitar work being performed. A good example of this would be his creative improvisation on the introduction to "South Town." His duet with B.B. King on "Blues for TJ" is wonderful. It is refreshing to hear two players who are more interested in sharing ideas than showing off. The scat version of "Tequila," courtesy of Al Jarreau, was also interesting. As with most Carlton recordings, there is something here for just about everyone; there's just not enough of it.
