About
Larry Coryell opens with two choruses on electric guitar, the first of two solos, followed by Joey DeFrancesco on organ. Taken at a medium swing tempo of 134 BPM over the 44-bar AABAC in E♭, the improvisation unfolds with comfortable, easygoing swing. Coryell's two-chorus guitar solo at 134 beats per minute demonstrates his versatility, his playing here more lyrical and harmonically exploratory than the blues-drenched approach heard on other tracks. Recorded for the album Wonderful! Wonderful! in 2012, the performance captures Larry Coryell at 68 to 69 years old. "Wagon Wheels" is a relaxed swing performance from Joey DeFrancesco's 2012 album Wonderful! Wonderful!, featuring the organist and guitarist Larry Coryell trading solos over Peter DeRose's 44-bar AABAC form in E-flat major.
Larry Coryell was 68 to 69 years old at the time.
