Larry Carlton Trio: The Paris Concert [DVD]

Description

This DVD showcases Larry Carlton's Trio mesmerising performance at Paris' famed New Morning concert in April 2008. Backed by rising star Travis Carlton ('Like Father, Like Son', the 'DNA factor') on bass and master drummer Toss Panos. A spectacular, full-fledged sound of sophisticated groove, joy and grace that Carlton is best known for. Carlton is embarking on a European Tour in October 2013, performing in Italy, Germany, Norway, Denmark and the Netherlands. Full tour schedule is here. Arguably one of the era s most respected jazz guitarists, Carlton has had record productions with Steely Dan to album recordings with John Lennon and Michael Jackson. He has rightfully earned the title 'one of the best guitarists in rock music' (Rolling Stone Magazine). Larry's playing style was most influenced by guitarists Joe Pass, Wes Montgomery, Barney Kessel and B. B. King. Saxophonist John Coltrane has also made a notable impression on Carlton, and Carlton's live albums have featured cuts from Miles Davis's hallmark Kind of Blue.
