Last Nite is a live album by Larry Carlton, released in 1986.[{{AllMusic|class=album|id=r136361|pure_url=yes}} All Music Guide] Recorded at the Baked Potato in North Hollywood, California, Carlton is supported by keyboardist Terry Trotter, bassist Abraham Laboriel, drummer John Robinson, and percussionist Alex Acuña.
Technical note: Carlton, who is known as "Mr. 335" because of his preference of the Gibson ES-335 semi-hollow body guitar in his early career, used a custom-made Valley Arts Strat solid-body guitar with active EMG pick-ups for these recordings, which accounts for the distinctly different tone when compared to earlier Carlton recordings.
