I love Travis Carlton's economical playing style.

My new favourite band.

Have you seen him with Robben Ford? Some great playing by Travis on there, along with great groove.

EDIT:
Ah yeah that's the Robben Ford band with Travis's dad, Larry on 6 string. My bad, just watching now...

Thats fantastic, thanks for sharing...

The guy is super groovy - and he can play great solos too without resorting to obvious chops - I saw him with Scott Henderson at Ronnie Scott's and he was so deep in the pocket he really held the gig together - very musical and solid too - plus he has a couple of great pedals... which is all in this clip in his wicked solo at the end.

And as a man I know said... never trust a skinny bass player...

Sorry to resurrect a thread.

I was wandering around the land of Youtube for gigs to watch, I thought I would chance listening to Larry Carlton for an hour.

My word Travis can play!

If you've got an hour to kill take a look, great sound and feel from the trio.

Also I'd love to know if anyone with a Moog MF-101 can get that bass sound at about 22mins in?

Watching now, thanks. I love the easy style of Travis Carlton.

He's been on my radar for a while now. A phenomenal bass player, a great feel for the instrument.
