This is my gift for the worst-case Ramadan ever trying to fast with covet. This is a blessing from the Most High saying it alright. Thank you.

He gives me Steven Segal vibes

Love Max and have followed him since he was with Jack Mack.

25:01 the ancient Greeks got ALL their knowledge from ancient KEMET/Egypt, AFRIKA. Stolen Legacy. George G.M James. GREAT book.

So nice when the interviewer is a fan, knowledgeable, came prepared…💯💯💯

I love his music…❤❤❤

Such an interesting, multi-faceted dude, who also just happened to do a classic belter like Second Chance.

Got 4th row tickets to grand Funk in Reno 9/1. So freaking excited!!

So many brilliant jazz musicians started in church. Those who can create such wonderful music prove that we are indeed made in the image of our creator God ❤

This Max is a great singer and song writer! Love this alot!

My idol, Ramsey Lewis, just completed my yearning for the meaning of life. Dear Ramsey, I would like to add another definition to your great words of wisdom. “ Art is human emotion through a technique “- from my music teacher. My mother brought an album home of a piano player who was named after an Egyptian Pharaoh. It was 1966, I never heard the piano say words- pianos have half steps only, how in Gods name could a pianist do this? A country piano player, in his own way, Floyd Cramer, played with a similar technique, and wrote some cute tunes. Anyway Ramsey, I copied both your styles. You, however, motivated me to become a public school music teacher, and moonlight playing piano in restaurants and nightclubs for the next fifty years. Thanks for making your piano talk to me. ❤

Wonderful interview

I thought I saw Will Ferrell at first

Beautiful man

Definitely one of my musical influences. Ramsay!!!!!!!!!!! A master piece of talent.

Great interview. What a lost this was. So well spoken. We are at at point of life where we lose the greats more and more each yr.

For me - love theme from Spartacus is the best . I believe my dad and uncle were there at the lighthouse the night it was recorded. Ramsey is a musical god for me.

Rest In Power / Roll In Peace Ramsey!

Respect RIP legend.

the importance of a music mentor.

Nice🎶🎧🎤🙂

Thank you, RAMSEY LEWIS, for doing your part to help tame mankind with your gift and talent. Your music was part background soundtrack to our once young life and continuing. It was a pleasure meeting you and giving incite on working with Charles Stepney and Maurice White. Quite the learning experience for myself. May GOD bless your legacy and surviving family.

Ich liebe so große Persönlichkeiten, die auf dem Boden geblieben sind. Und Max Carl gehört definitiv dazu... Ein so sympathischer Mensch♥️...Love it

Thank you so much for sharing the love🙏

he (Max) looks a little like Ludwig Van.

Max 👍

Hey, Max Carl fans! Guess what? Max is back with a new 80s influenced single "Highway to Glory", featured in the film "American Fighter". Available NOW! You can stream/buy it at this link! distrokid.com/hyperfollow/maxcarl/highway-to-glory

Love this interview. It always amazes me that anyone could be interested in watching this and then click a thumbs-down. Crazy. This is great. Love Ramsey - great musician and a really nice person.

An impressive individual. Especially like his take on developing new and greater horizons as we get older, regardless of age.

I am so used to RHCP interviews or just one man interviews being soooo bad, but this was done really well. The guy asked the right stuff and it flowed really well. Chad is by far the most normal guy in the band, and the interviewer helped bring out the most in him.

Kinda hazy for me but I think I did see Toby Redd at a bar somewhere around Detroit way back when.

Anthony was probably flying high during the audition and that's why he was dancing around and laughing his A_$ off. :D

It would be great to have one of these in Chicago!!!

Ramsey Lewis is an American treasure. Love his body of work.

incredible drummer, i all his drum parts so much

I used to hang out to 2 girls heather and lisa. They wanted me to go over someone's house. We went over there and there's Chad Smith! Omg! Couple years later he's in the red hot chili peppers!

that question at 21:00, as a drummer, was a really unique question haha

Why chad and will Ferrell look alike

“Back then, we danced to jazz . . .” It is such a shame that jazz has lost its funky, danceable edge. Most of the jazz released now is smooth. It is often so sanitized and bland.

Ramsey Lewis is awesome. He has more funk in his left hand than some people have in their whole body. I wish he would do a retro album of funky tunes on a real electric piano

22:55 wow what a great song

God damn. Not only is Max Carl an incredible singer and musician, but he is quite the historian, too. I am very impressed.

Very inspirational musician. Way ahead of the times with the music

So man, is that your breakfast? Lol

If there were one drummer on the planet I could smoke with, and trade 4’s with, before I die, it’s Chad! Seems so down to earth, and throughput all these years, he continues to improve his playing. The man can just groove!

Listen to real music and fuck off btw.

Met Chad twice in 91 and then again in 2007...great dude. Funny...down to earth just a regular guy. No rock star ego bullshit.
