Lee is amazing 👍

[@jamesdennis8290]

I like that when he channels Wes, he uses Wes's signature thumb-only action. When I heard other songs from this album on the radio I thought it sounded like he was doing that, and now I see that he is.

[@jaytea42]

Great Wes Montgomery tune!

[@RJK59man]

Saw Lee at the Jazz Cafe in London, in 2005/6, he was excellent. Alex Acuna on drums, Will Lee on bass.

[@bennettbernerproject3289]

Beautiful Sadowsky guitar!

[@ukulelechriswilson]

Very nice Groove.

[@reggieboyd5444]

Ive been a Lee Ritenour fan since the 80's but I have to ask, how the heck does he get that sweet sound out of a Marshall? Or is it just there for show? LOL

[@guitarelaxed]

Right of the Marshall there seems to be a Fender Twin and on the left there´s a Mesa Roadking. I think he´s playing stereo.

[@silviorsg.]

Simplesmente o melhor.

[@russhall1097]

I thought I heard Wes Montgomery in Lee, and now he mentions him!

[@MecPex]

Lee had a long career full of creativity and method. Nothing comes without a strong will and work. I love Larry Carlton, Dan Parks, Paul Jackson jr, Hiram Bullock, Steve Lukater and so on but Lee did something more than them. Maybe only Chuck Loeb did a career with a similar commitment and a large kind of experiences.

[@lizziehirschberg1884]

LEE IS WAAAY TOO HANDSOME...!!!!😊💕🩷🩷🙏

[@albertleung9283]

remember Dave

[@mikeaaron2819]

Lee really is the guitarists guitarists guitarists guitarists guitarists guitarists guitarists guitarists guitar player. He plays guitar as well.

[@jellyfish3333]

"Captain Fingers" is the best! He does that octave thing better than anyone other than the master himself, Wes Montgomery.

[@ronnieforey2068]

Mr briefcase......he carries his sound in there...,.

[@wowjef]

The drums don't always sound right on this. Maybe it's the mixing

[@dwftube]

If you are talking about timing - I think you are right. There's another recent video and there are definitely timing issues on that and, to a lesser extent, on the second one I've posted. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4C9YYyipp6phdU kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGWmYmCYhaljhsU

@@dwftube Thanks, mate. Greetings from Sydney. Long-time Lee Ritenour (and Larry Carlton) fan

[@muzicman1952]

Doesn't stay in the "pocket". Sounds like he gets bored. "Oh, it's OK, daddy won't fire me."

[@kjwilkguitar]

I'm feeling that too. The pocket's not relaxed.

[@MrCroset]

not bad for a musician 70 years old ? isn't.

[@bridgetgidget1446]

Used to be king of the hill in the 80's now sounds very mediocre compared to the kids of today.

[@MrDallman]

Mediocre….are you sure, he’s still one of the most respected players amongst all the players.

[@bridgetgidget1446]

@@MrDallman Well yeah hes a legacy guy. Fusion has advanced by leaps and bounds though in the past ten years. There are guys out there just killing it. In this song I heard a lot of cliche blues licks that have been done to death.

[@deegee6046]

Mediocre??? What a ridiculous thing to say Lee is a great player sounds like you are one of those people that listen with their eyes.

[@RJK59man]

How many of these young guys will be around and still playing in 50 years time and still playing as well as Lee can?

[@MrDallman]

@@RJK59man Totally agree 👍

His son Wes is a pretty good drummer.

[@RJK59man]
