Oz Noy Live with Will Lee and Keith Carlock

Oz noy and co. playing his tune "Say What?" live at the Bitter End NYC.
🎥 = Pete Fogel 2003

[@ROCKSTARCRANE]

WIll Fucking Lee....this is the bass player all the young Jaco Wanna-Bees need to pay attention to. Will does it all; funk, rock, jazz, blues...and for those who don't know, Will sings his ASS off! His jingle credits are legendary. First time I've ever heard Oz...he smokes! And Carlock...damn...I had no idea he was that freakin' good!

[@HotRodSixString]

Sweet Jesus . What just happened ? Suddenly half of my heroes have been shelved .

[@ropiyas]

Shit, this guys can surely play. That bass player alone -and his dancing- just makes up for the stillness of Oz. And THAT drummer...I'm fokkin' speechless.

[@rchommel]

Keith CarLockin' it down!! Will tuggin' seriously! Oz is just other worldy! Awesome... Thanks for posting dgbtman33! Regards, R~

[@NEntv58]

Kevin Scott deserves a medal for capturing this RIDICULOUS performance.

[@petefogel2133]

I took the video not kevin

[@dlswint]

Love this vid...the style and tone remind me of John Scofield, which is a fine thing. Lee and Carlock make it memorable. Thank you, noble poster...good one.

[@jeffsbro1]

Will Lee: One of the most entertaining bass players ever. He juggles lines like a circus preformer. You go Will!!!

[@NEntv58]

Carlock is a mind-bending talent. What an understanding of music. So much expression, communication. I'm absolutely floored.

[@ServeeSchellinx]

First one i heard of Oz.........still do like his style.......\

[@novoroshollywood]

I saw Steely with Ricky Lawson and Carlock , they both were amazing !!! Check Chambers with Tower of Power video here , so amazing , the dynamics and groove.

[@ShinjiIII]

Carlock has to be one of the most bad ass drummers of our time!

[@pofe3]

thank youuuuuuuuuu for this upload!! wonderful. a jewel. been watching this since 2006, still everytime i watch it i sweat for 6` pure joy :)

[@jazzninja77]

Jeeeeeeeeez how good is Carlock, damn!! Great power trio.

[@emiliem358]

I've seen that video more than 300 times in this decade... Aww I had never knew that was you, the King Kevin, you uploaded it!!!! Thanx! You made my day!!!!

[@petefogel2133]

I took the video in 2003

[@Elyse0917]

so damn good that I watched it twice and put it up as a link on my friends FB wall..... sick-good shit.

[@79SteelyMatt]

Carlock is absolutely amazing-I think Dave Weckl and Keith are the two best drummers in the world right now.Will Lee is also fabulous,my girlfriend said-"Who is that skinny white boy playing bass? He is freaking awesome !"I got a good laugh from that.I didnt know Will had such good moves-not bad for a session musician legend

[@garrisonthad]

I was there. Decided to stop in on a whim. Sometimes fate is a wonderful thing.

[@BLUEPLANETJAZZ]

What does Carlock play? Any damn thing he wants! DAYAM!!!!!!!!

[@hughman174]

nice! Carlock is the man. luv his skills

[@gabbadahutt]

Whoa that's something! I've just heard of this guitarist and he's amazing! :O :D

[@lanesblitz]

fantastic music, fantastic musicianship.

[@paradiddle1]

Damn, I love that lick at 1:51 that Oz throws...lol...love it.

[@hojima]

Love the drummin.

[@D_Hill_Drums]

@Baddstuff I didn't say anything about reading giving you chops. If you want chops, practice chops. If you want to be able to read, practice that too. I was just saying that being able to read music, which I think should be mandatory, will give you the "one up" on someone who can't read; especially if you want to do studio sessions like Keith. You can have all the chops in the world, but there are people in the world who don't get gigs, namely recording sessions, because they can't read.

[@boinx]

Keith Carlock is amazing.

[@SharkyRussell]

absolutely great stuff! So What and Impressions on speed

[@wholetonetrio]

It's Beautiful...

[@Nygle123]

What a killer 3 piece! Those dudes shred!

[@kaneheuer]

Keith always steals the show.

[@MBASE2]

[@Mahavishnu80]

[@Heritage651]

[@lidesnowi]

[@holybirdie]

[@redrumPole]

[@VIAM5]

Funk Ricain .. impressionnant ! c'est tout, tout comme on aime : ENCORE Now

[@DancingSpiderman]

DAYum me like this!

[@giordash]

Will Lee has the best moves!

[@drumtwo4seven]

I like the lick he played at the end between the floor tom and ride cymbal... sounded like a group of five or something

[@deego86]

haha its awesome to see will lee performing! Gettin his groove on... and is he barefoot?? :D

[@TheMrFunktastic2]

Wow 10 year old upload. I love it though!

[@D_Hill_Drums]

Keith is reading his ass off!!!! Keep in mind kids: READING (music as well as words) IS FUNDAMENTAL!!!!

[@dimmeldesign]

@smurd82 I agree. Tom Robbins is one of my favorite authors as well.

[@DrumBlast89]

Nice!

[@GearHeadz101]

he sure is talented BB...

[@smoukondeuoter]

awsome!!! Who can suggest me an album to buy?!

[@50Something]

Nuts.....

[@JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

@TheSyncopator You are right, reading will help you. Knowledge never ends. But there are a lot of top professional musicians who can't read.

[@arscido2]

You may find that if you allow the stick to do that it allows the drum to sound its best...paul wertico has been teaching that for years....check out han bennink if you can...hes a true inovator....

[@petefogel2133]

I know it's a long time ago, but I took this video. Credit would be nice. Pete Fogel 2003

[@Kevinscottbass]

Here ya go Pete!

[@diananavarroo]

I don't get how you dislike this, Even if this is music you don't really listen to. It's still some pretty crazy stuff.

[@goldensleeves]

I love Oz Noy! What's the guitarist's actual name? Guitar - ????? Drums - Keith Carlock Bass - Will Lee

[@ArkaEasyRiders]

Nice....

[@breenVA]

there is a reason why he's on DiMarzio's roster... his tone is cool.

[@turnagegp]

just heard about this guy a couple minutes ago...i like it. oz is fresh and inventive, but to me the drums stick out as being the star of the show. the tone of that kit is nice. i ike the srv style lick at 1:32!

[@rexzorn]

yeah... say what?!!

[@phbruce]

Só nego foda.

[@MichaelJettAdams]

you gotta love this.....check out will at about 5:30....i think this trio should stick together for some time eh?

[@jburquest]

Do you happen to have other videos with Will Lee and Keith Carlock? I'm looking for one with Will bouncing around like a madman!

[@azopote9253]

Does anyone know if Will Lee giving lessons? I would REALLY love his dance moves

[@JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

@TheSyncopator Maybe you have wider rage of possibilities when getting a gig, recording session... but GOOD MUSICIAN doesn't equal MUST READ. Michael Landau is not a good reader, but is one of the most demanded session musicians, because he knows what the song needs, sounds great, he has good taste, creativity, groove... etc, etc. And those things have nothing to do with reading. Of course reading will help you, but in my opinion is not a MUST.

[@chiphotoguy]

He took over for Dennis Chambers in Steely Dan, what does that tell you? Check out my vid of him live with Steely Dan on AJA amazing. Great video2

[@JustusVidyo]

1:25 WOOOPS

[@JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

@smurd82 Actually you don't need to read music to be a good musician. It helps to communicate and write down ideas, and of course it's good to have that knowledge, especially to be a session musician, but there are thousands of great musicians who can't or coudn't read (George Benson, Robben Ford, Dennis Chambers, Eric Clapton, Hendrix, Wes Montgomery, Charlie Christian, Maceo Parker, Paco de Lucia...).

[@jmfdrums]

@goldensleeves It doesn't look like anyone ever replied to your ?? - His name is Oz Noy...yes, that's a real name...

[@muffinspuffinsEE]

AWESOME DRUMMER! :DD OMG IT'S JACKIE CHAN!!

[@DaveRowat]

Wow, this is really fresh sounding. Dunno who said he sucks, but whatever, prefernce is everything... its obvious he doesn't suck, maybe you just don't like him? Anyways, nice use of effects top...

[@NEntv58]

@MyEyesBled Good call,myeyes,

[@Mahavishnu80]

what is that called again when you play snare and rim like that?

[@MyEyesBled]

Nice... a little bit of early Steve Howe in there...

[@AaronJansz]

@edidpro What instrument do you play Mr Ignorance?

[@lesjuly]

Where's HIRAM ??

[@perilousRelish]

Carlock is god. Lee is reading the piece as well. RIF is right.

[@Chameleon41]

Couldn't stand Oz himself, Carlock was excellent and Lee was good. You can watch two more vids from this gig on Keith Carlock's website.

[@GearHeadz101]

you mean crossticking?

[@ghermanrares2336]

Doamne fereste

[@Bc99-whyz]

Found

[@edidpro]

@Crusada54 Guitar,violin,viola,mandolin,dobro,banjo,lap steel and I sing. I do sessions and teach for a living. You can hear me on my page or with the band I'm currently finishing an album with. "Druckfarben" In my spare time I drink excessively and taunt drummers as my alter ego "Mr. Ignorance"

[@TheJazzGuitarSite]

@EstudioBlack good thing oz noy sounds nothing like scofield

[@edidpro]

Yeah boy those drum charts...Intro 4 bars Verse 8 bars Chorus 8 bars...shots...groove 8 bars...vamp 4 bars... hahaha Before all you drummers get all pissy I'm kidding(mostly)

[@dz508]

strident...

[@Chameleon41]

Personal preference really. When he does his groove in this, it's nice and tight, his tone is ok... but there's nothing new or interesting about it, it's just "ok". When he branches out into his other sections, I just don't dig them much, they seem abstract, for the sole purpose of being abstract.
