LC Leaves Fourplay to Pursue Solo Career and 335 Records Projects
"I will cherish all of the wonderful personal and musical memories, over the past 12 years, which I was fortunate enough to share with Fourplay. Now with the very accomplished Chuck Loeb in the guitar chair, I very much anticipate more great music from Fourplay in the future. As for me, I'm looking forward to being able to spend more time on the many exciting projects I have in the works, all of which I’m anxious to share with my friends and fans!"

all this possible. I hope you’ll join me for my first ever online workshop – my gift to you!” Larry Carlton

Royal Scam at the Gibson
So I know every lick of "Royal Scam." Albeit in incorrect order. But I wasn’t expecting much last night. I was psyched for the second part of the show, when the album had been completed and the band let go. But last night was different. Because of LARRY CARLTON!
