Music reviews of Larry Carlton
Music Review: This Is The Most Depressing Album I Ever Heard
Rating: 5 Stars
The first time I listened to "Room 335", I realized that even if I had another 200 years, I could never play guitar at the level of this true master musician. As the record continued, so did the feeling that everything I dreamed to hear from a guitar, was now coming out of my hi-fi. These tracks are all at once thoughtful and exciting; soulful and funky, with imaginative, but well founded melodies and sexy rhythms; tireless, blistering, bluesey solos; simple, yet creative arrangements; and the often-imitated, but never-duplicated "sweet" guitar tone. Larry's music seems familiar, and it should be: his guitar and orchestrations have been the key ingredient for many a TV or movie soundtrack, not to mention the countless major stars and top recording artists that have benefitted from his abilities. And, even though he never pretends to be a "real" vocalist, those particular songs lend to this album an added freshness and even more musical variety, at the same time demonstrating that he is a complete musician. Personally, I think the vocal tracks are included more for the ladies, because there's plenty of guitar lines to bring the guys to their knees. Larry's guitar playing is just mind-blowing: a single phrase will have you believing that you're listening to Charlie Parker, alternating with B.B. King, Tom Scott, Eric Clapton, and Louie Armstrong. You can tell that there's no "flash-and-dash" with Larry; each note is well planned and perfectly executed; even his 32nd notes never sound rushed or frantic. Each line is dripping with serious musicality and wailing passion, steeped in tradition, and thrust into the future, leaving the pack behind, and carving out his own unique place in the world of music. This album brings Larry Carlton out of the shadows of the back-line, and puts him permanently in the spotlight. And after hearing it, if you are a rock or blues player like me, you will just want to pack up your Les Paul, and roll your Marshall into the nearest dumpster. If you play jazz or fusion, then I feel very sorry for you too. We all have a lot to learn, beginning right at the door to Room 335.
