I Like Simon Cowell -

There Is No Finer Guitarist Than Kenny Burrell

The First Time I Tried To Sing Along With My Guitar, Everybody In The Studio Booed. They All Said It Wouldn't Work.

I Listen To Other Guitar Players, Yeah. It Gives Me New Concepts And Shows Me Where The Instrument Is Going For The Future And It Is Going Some Places. There Are Some Musicians Who Are Really Putting Out A Good Vibe With New Theories. I Try And Keep Up.

As My Career Has Progressed, I've Had The Pleasure Of Playing With The Baddest Jazz Cats On The Planet. But That Doesn't Change My Desire To Entertain Folks. That's Really Who I Am.

Larry Carlton Is An Incredibly Versatile Guitarist Who Has Been A Major Force For Guitar For Many Years. He Is Easily Recognizable - All You Have To Do Is Hear Him Once And From That Point On You'll Be A Fan, Just Like Me. It Gives Me Great Pleasure To Extend Congratulations To Larry On His 2011 George Benson Lifetime Achievement Award. Congratulations !
