From A Live TV Broadcast Recorded For CHCH-TV, Ontario, Canada, 1983.

1983 TELEVISION SESSION BY TWO MUSIC LEGENDS When session guitar supremo Larry Carlton first picked up the instrument at six years old, he was already a huge music lover. Inspired to learn how to play jazz after hearing the great Joe Pass on the radio, he would go on to study players such as Wes Montgomery and Barney Kessel to help him develop his passion further. However, after being exposed to the legendary blues stylings of B.B. King, his powerful influence helped shape Carlton’s playing into the all-rounder that he remains to this very day. So when the opportunity came to record a live television show with B.B. in 1983, Larry jumped at the chance. Titled “In Session”, the 40-minute joint performance contains a mix of classic blues and fusion jams, conversations on phrasing, and performances of some favourites including; ‘The Thrill Is Gone’, ‘Hummingbird’ and ‘Rock Me Baby’ Finally released on this CD, the entire set these incomparable musicians performed that hallowed evening more than 35 years ago, is now available for all to hear.

Just days after the release of a long-unfinished album, a group effort meant to help ease his struggles from Parkinson’s Disease, the widely admired rock and blues guitarist Jimmy Nalls died Thursday after a fall at his home. He was 66. Nalls, who had lived in Nashville since the mid 1980s, was famous for his role in 1970s southern rock and fusion group Sea Level. He was also a valued sideman who worked with a wide variety of major American artists, including Dr. John, Gregg Allman, T. Graham Brown and Lee Roy Parnell.

Gabriel Hernandez, owner of Blues Vintage Guitars, Inc. in Nashville and one of the producers of the new album, says Nalls was an underrated but influential guitar player. “He was at such a burgeoning scene and time in Macon, GA, when Capricorn Records was just exploding. He was doing session stuff for all kinds of people and hanging out with the Allman Brothers.”

The Jimmy Nalls Project, released June 19, is a collaboration by more than a dozen prominent guitarists and numerous other musicians and producers that completes a solo album Nalls had to abandon more than a decade ago after his Parkinson’s symptoms left him unable to play. In 2015, friends and colleagues rallied to complete tracks that were in various states, playing largely in Nashville’s House of Blues studio, often with Nalls on hand to enjoy it. The project was intended to raise funds to defray the substantial costs of Nalls’s care and to improve the disability accommodations in his home. Proceeds now will go to Nalls’s family.

Among the contributors to the album are international blues rocker Joe Bonamassa, Tennessee-based jazz icon Larry Carlton, rockers Robben Ford and Warren Haynes and standout Nashville six-stringers Jack Pearson, Johnny Hiland, J.D. Simo and Kenny Greenberg. Chuck Leavell, longtime keyboard player with the Rolling Stones and leader of Sea Level between 1976 and 1980, played on the album as well.

The link is no longer available. You are encouraged to buy this CD. Proceeds will go to Nalls’s family.

11. Red Hot Poker (3:49)

Renegade Gentleman finds Larry Carlton creating a vibrant mix of Southern rock, blues, and fusion. It is refreshing not to hear the drum machines and overproduced horn and keyboard arrangements that have become typical of a Carlton-led session. This setting finds Larry playing very comfortably with harmonica whiz Terry McMillan, a legend in Nashville. "Sleep Medicine" and "Anthem" are both excellent vehicles for Carlton to shine, and "Farm Jazz" gets a welcome facelift from its dismal debut on Kid Gloves. Overall, Carlton achieved what he seemed to be striving for, although there are some rather embarrassing moments ("Never Say Naw"). Recommended mostly due to Carlton's stretching out and fresh approach. ~Review by Robert Taylor

Thanks to Marc.
