i kinda prefer coryell for a really strained reason = when i wz abt 17 i read a sneery (rock-crit) review of him comparing him to HENDRIX and i wz then v.punky and didn't approve of hnedrix so (by uh logic) decided i wz pro coryell

i never heard anything by him till abt four years ago and i quite liked it! (it wz sort of steely danish)

so hurrah!

i accept this argt will not stand up in the courts of time

I don't think I've ever heard Carlton

No? He plays on five Joni Mitchell albums (starting with Court and Spark) and four Steely Dan albums (starting with Katy Lied). I've never heard a solo recording, though.

Larry Coryell is pretty cool on Steve Marcus's Tomorrow Never Knows.

the carlton solo stuff i have heard is like, you know, sanborn solo stuff i have heard. but, like i said, almost ALL of coryell's 60's and early 70's stuff is worth hearing.

(this really must have been sampled for a heap of rap beats, right?)

funny this thread exists. I feel bad admitting that I've seen Larry Coryell's name pop up in guitar magazines and elsewhere over the years, but I don't think I've ever listened to him. More often than not, I have indeed confused him with Larry "Fat Time" Carlton.
