I picked up a lee rittenour CD at a thrift store for almost nothing purely because the album art was interesting, man, that CD is a permanent resident of my changer.

[@Passionnotes94]

That kid so very talented! Anybody that wants to be negative are just jealous that they, couldn't play that dang well at 14 or at all. He's awesome! I wish kids and even younger adults would understand that this is MUSIC....Fourteen year olds today are just worried about being famous and knowing only three guitar chords, and make music. I'm very impressed with this kid, and I enjoy listening to him play.

[@normanbrooks9062]

Really enjoy seeing and hearing some really talented musicians. This venue gives me the opportunity to experience gigs I would not normally get to.

[@rodolfofonseca-larios5176]

What a great opportunity and dream come true to this young musician Andreas Varady to share the scene with undoubtedly one of the biggest jazz guitarist alive...!!! The Master Lee Ritenour and with Master Dave Grusin too...!!!! Excellent versión of this beautiful song.... Peace.......

[@promerops]

One of the most beautiful jazz songs (without words) ever written. I still prefer the original, but this is a fine alternative reading. Thanks.

[@jasonhawthorn71]

The kid is there to showcase him. The song is the star.

[@terryharris2569]

Bravo, what God can do, no one does it better, vessels of the infinite healing sound of God we call music, beautiful!

[@florencerussell3552]

Gotta love this........and Dean Parks on Guitar as well and looks like the most recorded drummer in history J.R. on drums. WOW!!

[@comet1996]

Few things can beat a smooth jazz sound..... very cool tune.

[@miltonisono2224]

I remember following Andreas from when he was 12yrs old. He had his own band at the time and he was as spectacular as he was then as he is now. One thing I notice about his playing is that he has matured into playing all types of jazz beats and rhythm. His playing now is way more refined than when he was 12. But hey Andreas at 12 still played better than most of the jazz guitarists at the time but the difference was the ability and talent that most did not have. Oh yeah lee and David what can you say about them. They are not from this world when it comes to playing jazz music. A big thumbs up for everyone and good luck towards the future of keeping jazz music using their contemporary magic to capture its full effect on a d for people Ike myself. Well done!

[@LOVELOVE-gy6pt]

GREAT ......QUINCY........ bella formazione !

[@vancemotorbikes2789]

Today I was sitting in Santa Monica, and a guy went by on a bike. I thought to myself that man looks like #leeritenour . So I asked him if his first name was Lee. He replied "Yes". We talked for about 20 min. It was kind of him to indulge a fan, and to give me something to talk about and remember.

[@BadSneakers]

Yeah, I seen interviews w him and he rides his bike listening to headphones of song ideas. One in particular is called "Rose Pedals" he composed about riding his bike. Its on youtube. That's way cool yall got to talk!

[@vancemotorbikes2789]

BadSneakers, love that song. Are you in L.A.? If so you might see him an he's bike yourself. Veery unassuming man.

[@phyllispetras3821]

BLESS YOU Mr. Jones!!!

[@dny6969]

Fantastico il finale, scordando il mi basso per suonare la tonica di mi bemolle! Amazing musician!

[@terrymiller111]

This a FANTASTIC version of this song!

[@beverleydemeyer1617]

Timeless ❤ Just wonderful.

[@SuperSpace2009]

Nice hearing Stolen Moments in guitar and piano.

[@boccozen3974]

Genial! Músicos enormes dándole pie a la nueva generación. Gracias.

[@layouts77]

Fantastic performance of a great piece of music.

[@terrylewis9041]

Thank you I' m loving this😄😃😃

[@Cactusblu7676]

amazing stuff..could listen to this all day

[@rinareyes3222]

Undeniably superb performance

[@2400logan]

I was at this performance in Stravinski Hall at the Montreaux Jazz festival July 19 2013 in Switzerland. This was truly a special moment live also when the entire band played Killer Joe live. This was a concert and Quincy Jones 80th birthday celebration .The whole star personality thing just doesn't happen in Switzerland like in the united States. You will cross paths with most of the artist appearing at the festival at the local store or just walking down the street and it no big deal.

[@EMasteringIICargeJr2]

Grande talento, me lembrou o Bireli Lagrene quando tinha seus 16 anos e ja tocava com o Jaco Pastorius. Parabensss a todos. excelente.

[@paultee]

Andreas, amazing boy, lucky for anybody in that shows....

[@jean-lucbersou758]

Lee's experience and maturity brings the tone and effects that "cuts" beyond the notes ,Andreas can play with guys on Top... ",the same "Family" says Quincy

[@porkbelly0713]

thank you so much Quincy, this is great

[@AresJazzOfficial]

Grandissimi

[@amehdi13]

8:13-8:33 is so cheeky...gotta love it.

[@MrViglioni]

FANTÁSTICO!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@anaissarah]

amazing... smile

[@ktronski4956]

Thank you before electric 💕⚡

[@Larriex97]

Amazing musician 😮

[@adamvoros6529]

Andreas Varady (Várady András - born 24 July 1997) is a Hungarian jazz guitarist managed by Quincy Jones. Regarded as a child prodigy, he is influenced by Django Reinhardt, Wes Montgomery and George Benson, and has been performing internationally since the age of thirteen. Anyway... Lee Ritenour keeps an other Hungarian guitarist in big respect whose name is Gabor Szabo.

[@tom-hb8rz]

[@martinoblues]

Wonderful. Very great stuff. Congratulations.

[@studiorm43]

Great talent

[@anfiorsceal]

Well, look -it's just great playing all round ... wonderful to see new young talent taking up the music we love ( I remember seeing the young Andreas and his dad busking outside Penney's store in Cork, Ireland years ago -he was playing like a pro at 7 or 8 yrs old ) .. is that a Benedetto he's playing ? - nice :-D

[@ericamccool345]

It definitely looks like a Benedetto, and sounds like one too!

[@tiluriso]

Kid sounds amazing, like a cross between George Benson and Birelli Lagrene.

[@MecPex]

Well done

[@howardweir8450]

brilliante

[@NotUrBiz]

So I'm loving it, and in the middle of the solo at the 4:30 mark the video stops and an ad comes on. If you want me to watch your ads, be smart about it. I'm not against you making money on your videos but I am against having the flow destroyed to sell me some crap I don't want and will never buy.

[@7deepbreaths.sounds]

I 2nd, 3rd AND 4th THAT emotion!! Put that sh*t b4 or after the set.. ..REAL TALK!

[@jamesmertzelos210]

5th that... Vibe kill for real!

[@andyc6227]

A new guitar prodigy! And this MEANS (already a lot of work done but) still a lot of work to do! ;-)

[@jamesharper8372]

Damn he sounds like George benson when he plays

[@LOVELOVE-gy6pt]

Good Quincy....you are a great talent scout :)

[@titansilva24]

Lee came out like a god that makes no mistakes then he fucks up and is tense as f about it and bring the whole band down. Andreas awesome job so much talent!

[@Skipperj]

I've played this tune a thousand times ,and am I mistaken or did L.R. play the intro again while the kid was sticking to the form?That would be a fatal mistake where I come from lol... They would take you out back of the club and bitch slap you

[@gsteps2]

Totally agree with Kristian & Clifton!

[@mattihuhta7871]

Are we really watching the same video? Andreas is great and all I see is great performances and mutual respect.

[@markrice9377]

Gotta disagree completely... Andreas missed his cue... was late on the uptake... If you watch you can see that Lee is upset... The kid is talented, but he absolutely lost the plot!... I don't think he knew the tune, nor had any real sense of it... He was just strumming for a bit... Eventually he found his way back, but he was so lost!... He'll learn, but he has a long way to go...

[@adriennelee1520]

Agree Kristian... he seems to be competing in my opinion. When you do that you F up. He fumbled and stumbled. They're both good. I just think the kid did a great job and will be a contender.

[@diditprasetya]

Joooozzzz gandhos tenaaaan.......

[@alexbostelle287]

I just listened to the original, enuf said!

[@brucekuehn4031]

2018 now - how's the kid doing? I always hope that there are still the opportunities to keep this kind of music alive!

[@petermuller7029]

Andreas is great, but to low, I can hardly hear his impro, how is that. Part of the gig conditions, or is the mixer at the restroom ?

[@LukeDallert]

Fantastic playing...but to me Andreas Varady could be a little louder.. sounds like he`s not really in front..

[@-greenpiece-5295]

technician's job to do that... And I'm sure they did it on purpose to let Ritenour be upfront

[@matty1953565962]

I thought so, too. That Benedetto sounded gorgeous; I wish it had been louder.

[@GlimmerOfLight]

Lee Ritenour is great, but it is the kid doing the heavy lifting on the guitar here :D

[@Avatar7x7]

That little kid burned "Captain Fangers" up that night ! LOL ... that was five years ago and that little feller was play'n like that when he was 14... that's not right .. Kid is vicious !

[@patstillman888]

Na, ritenour had way more taste style and harmonic interest.

[@Monk-Amani.]

Smile.

[@tpthai2]

Karl Vance, What bike was lee riding?

[@PauloRoberto-uh1nc]

Como Deus é bom da sabedoria pra várias áreas da vida e aí está o músicos estudam mais pra chegar a esse nível vejam quanto levou persistência pra ficar tão bom nos instrumentos veteranos e novatos se juntando pra mostrar o melhor de um jazz bem executado nos mínimos detalhes com uma memória incrível de guardar as notas as sequências e agradecer aqueles que fazem os instrumentos que também são gênios saúde a todos

[@patriciaperkins4423]

NO ONE HAS MENTIONED THE PIANIST DAVE GRUSIN. HE IS THE WINNER OF AN ACAMEDY AWARD FOR HIS COMPOSITION OF THE MUSIC FOR THE MOVIE "ON GOLDEN POND", AN 18 GLOBAL WINNER, AND 6 SUNDANCE AWARDS. I WENT TO SCHOOL WITH DAVE IN LITTLETON, COLORADO. HE AND I HAD THE SAME PIANO TEACHER, MRS. STEVENS.

[@HunterMann]

Impressive tune, brilliant musicians, yes... however, 4:23 into the tune there is a commercial. That's like having Dave Brubeck 8-track tape that stops Take 5 half way thru for the tape to clunk to the next track .

[@arctictfan3470]

Use adblock+ never seen an ad since. And use Ghostery too. It blocks all those trackers.

[@manningbartlett522]

Not the video's fault, that is all KZbin, Get AdBlock.

[@lpgoog]

Interestingly, you can't get into someone until your ready to dig it. This transcends time sometimes too..........LOL Lukather brought me to Carlton Miles brought me to Ford. Wes brought me to Lee. Ritenour can play jazz in one setting and easily morph into some pop//rock guy with same conviction and taste. Twin to Rectifier in the blink of an eye. I can only imagine what Varady will do when he is as seasoned. Yikes!

[@ellenprichard6167]

lpgoo

[@gasparzinho561]

Super guutar

[@jonathonaltmann4493]

Three comping instruments.

[@stoofbuis]

that varady-boy just shit notes,without restpoints,......Mature Lee REALLY knows what soloing is about.

[@Denys77]

you obviously are spouting shit out of your mouth, do you actually think Lee would play with him if he wasn't good

[@Carehuea]

Totally fuckin disagree with ya!

[@lousehr]

What a dufus! Wouldn't know talent if it hit you in the face

[@ardynursanto1000]

young talented vs legend

[@jacquesprevert1902]

Lee Ritenour is God

[@QuinnGuitar]

Is that Rick Peckham (guitar) sitting idly in the orchestra?

[@jurbur1071]

Yeees,guitarplayer in orchestra looks exactly like Rick Peckham:-))but it´s not him(not 100%:-))

[@hulldanfan]

That there is the awesome Dean Parks on guitar. A stalwart of Steely Dan albums and as a session player and tourer with many of the biggest acts around.

[@twangbarfly]

hulldanfan Typically unassuming pose of Dean Parks, one of my all-time favourite guitarists. Unusual to see him with a 335 though.

[@eauneau4344]

Kin Ace

[@SkonrokkenTV]

nice to see lee giving the stage to a (teen?) but younger player! and not just taking the whole thing himself! I wonder whether the younger dude had the better solo! But then he is getting older! Still great tone on the L-5....the kid was 14?????? that sucks...

[@adriennelee1520]

Years ago I saw Carlton and Ritenour together several times, I'm a huge fan of both.. Lee smoked Larry every time.. today I see this young kid, Andreas just heads and tails above Lee.. His knowledge and fluidity are outstanding.. He is going to be the hottest new Jazz player of our times.. For sure. Altho, Lee has tone heads above Andreas for sure.. too bad he tried to compete with him at the end.. Stick with what you know and do the best.. and don't compete with each other boys.. makes you look weak weak weak.. lol

[@v4714v]

Heads over tails better.. hmm sounds a bit too much. Surely Lee's tunes in his solos were much smoother. Yes, Lee played fewer notes, but I think his solos were always smoother. After all, Lee is known for his smoothness, more than his speed. Andreas might be a bit like George Benson on the guitar - quick, agile and loves to hit those quirky notes. I'm an avid fan of both, as well as Carlton, but it just irks me to say that one smokes the other, or that one is heads over tails than the other. I view them all as equal - they're masters in their own right. Hehe just my two cents. I love Varady too though! When all is said and done though, I do agree that Varady will become the hottest new jazz player soon

[@adriennelee1520]

Vincent Tandaw True true.. hard to say that one is better than the other.. I'm a huge fan of all three players. I definitely see Varady's talent, and I too think he will shine brightly in the future. I think I was so impressed that I might have blown his playing a little bit out of proportion compared to Larry and Lee.. yet, nothing like youth to put a little more fire into the playing where the older cats might relax a little.

[@markrice9377]

Disagree completely!!!... While the kid is talented, he's got years to go to compete on the same stage as Lee... It was obvious that he missed his cue, and lost the tune... you could see in the video that Lee was upset.... Lee wasn't competing with him... Lee was RESCUING him!... Andreas was way off the mark... He was improvising, and badly, for a half dozen bars!... It was clear he'd forgotten the tune!... You could see in Andreas' eyes that he was lost... he was looking over to Lee for direction!... Andreas is talented, but young, undisciplined, inexperienced, and has little knowledge of the legacy of music that he is entering into... One day, perhaps!

[@twangbarfly]

Never heard Lee "smoke" Larry Carlton, nor have I heard anyone "smoke" Larry for that matter. Although I quite like him, I've always personally thought of Lee as the poor man's Larry Carlton. However, these are ultimately just meaningless personal opinions - they are both superb guitarists and musicians.

[@adriennelee1520]

twangbarfly Agree, They are both terrific .. and I do love when they play together. I'm a fan of both.

[@gurliabildgaardhansen966]

whaoo ,yes Donavon ,but a lot of hard work and practise, if u know what i mean. Andreas is good

Legendary session guitarist Dean Parks just behind Rit, keeping a watchful eye on the proceedings. Some serious cats on this stage.

[@ruisenormecanico3168]

Is that Larry Carlton chillin in the back?

[@stretch54]

+Ruiseñor Mecánico It looks like Dean Parks to me.

[@daccsacc]

I was just wondering if that was dean parks

[@rider8666]

That is Dean Parks enjoying every note.

[@kelvynyeang]

james hetfield is playing drums

[@phyllispetras3821]

I am glad to learn....77 is not too old....This composition by Oliver Nelson is so lovely...........

[@dsinemoi1mouton]

the two themes (beginning and end) are a bit muddled. The guitarist doesn't totally agree with the band with the intro reexposition ( 2:18 for example ). Anyway, very cool music moment.

[@rncbc]

so it's "Chief Petty Fingers" then?, going for "Admiral Fingers" in no time. (sorry Lee:))

[@ondaride777]

this particular piece he either overworked or haven't placed the right ideas together making it a-bit of a mess which is I guess due to either his young age. otherwise he's got pieces played much more solid vs. this one and agree to the great gipsy jazz guitarist podigy

[@life-is-inspiring3953]

Lee's solo is more organized, the kid has good technique but solo wise needs to be more organized IMO

[@harekrishna3583]

[@kurinakornel1]

De rosszak ,Istenem!-....A Varady gyerek mindig is tehetseges volt,de meg hol van az erett gitarozashoz.!?..A Ritenour mindig nikhaj volt...

[@farbodradfar3274]

I must admit, although the soloing is impecible, they did quite butcher this lovley song, I prefer the original, I play the head of this song much higher up on the fret board to better match the horns that play in the original, but again, it's all about interpretation

[@laurentgilbertgianesini8624]

Alors la ....voici le comble d'une belle merde un beau plantage dans le chorus du jeune guitariste et Lee n'est pas un musicien de jazz

[@twangbarfly]

Belle merde... beau plantage ... pas un musicien de jazz.. L'exception française se prononce, comme d'habitude, du fond de son trou du cul en s'efforçant de chier sur tout qui se trouve sur son chemin - bravo!
