Larry.....You are good, SO damn good...There are people that have good voices and can play instruments....But just knowing how to play is not what real music is in my eyes....Real music is YOU, my friend...That set of pipes you have is GOLD...Not a single word coming out of that mouth and this is still a Fabulous piece....You know why that is?..Along with that voice, the way you play guitar is something NOBODY can touch.....You and your music are Priceless:).......ione marie
Larry, I have no doubt that you played this. All one has to do IF they have doubts of you playing or not is check on your earlier videos when you played in a band with a female lead singer. This is slow "pickin" compared to those. So for all the negatives you may get...you have a greater ratio of people who DO belive you and love the work you do. And one person listed that at 1:10 mark the pitch was off...So what? If you can play can better, do it. So, thanks for the entertainment Larry...Tom
Well..perhaps it's the intonation of the guitar or too much fretting finger pressure. Go to the solo at 1:10 and have a listen. Still think the pitch is fine??? Honestly, have a listen and get back to me, okay?
Sounds dynamite! Love that cherry red guitar. It's beautiful.
You go way way out-of-your-way to record and play these videos and I'm always in awe. Me? I can barely be bothered to sing along with the radio (if I'm alone.) I certainly wouldn't put myself out there for any criticism or ridicule. You are so much more brave and naturally talented then I. Bravisimo maestro!
Larry...wonderful job. Playing all the instruments and being able to match the classic Ventures sound is a rather tall order...and you nailed it, of course!
WOW.....Absolutely fantastic, Larry !!! One of my favorite songs......ever, and you have done a superb version ! I just LOVE this ! Rock on, my friend !
You know jealousy is behind those dislikes, Larry. Some people just can't stand that you have more talent in your little finger than they have in their entire being. That, and they have no life...obviously.
This song made me want to put on leather boots, a mini skirt, and jump in a dance cage. Far out, man! :-)
You should never waste life with anonymous negative envious youtube comments on this channel. The fact that leave dumb comments shows how big of a green stripe they carry. Just keep playing real music and ignore them (my two cents)
As always...great Job Larry. You and others have inspired me to post a few videos of my own. Nowhere near the professional quality of your stuff but we have fun pickin and grinnin and I wanted to post a few of my original tunes as well. It also gives me incentive to practice and to try to record better versions...haha...I have decided that I don't care about the negative comments either...if someone likes it they do, it they don't then...they just don't. All the best to you, Happy Holidays!
"Oh what fun it is to ride", on a Fender Jaguar play! Man, what musical enjoyment you convey! It's so good to see someone having so much fun with their music and infecting others as much. And I know everyone is envious of that "Jag". My "air guitar" can barely keep up with it! ...... ;>)
To set the record straight.. I did play all the parts on this including drums.. Normally, in this type of recording, I will film myself actually recording the lead guitar. This time, I forgot to turn the camera on. Rather than re-record it (it was a good take), I filmed myself after the fact, imitating the track I had recorded moments earlier.. There is bass, edrums (pads triggering drum sounds I played as a kit would be), elec piano, rhythm guitar, and lead guitar. No one was injured.. :))
Larry! ...GIVE ME BACK MY GUITAR!!!......( I " Had".a black Fender Jaguar guitar that I miss dearly ..)...It took me 96. tears to figure out all the switches and tone combinations on that extremely versatile instrument...thank you for that boss tune!...Such a gas getting "tubed" by someone who plays like so many of us... wish we could!.. Ride the wild surf brother!
negative response? This was another fun moment... we grew up listening to music from the 50's 60 's 70's and on the formation of the greatest block of music ever....Your abilities to play a lot of instruments is a credit to your love of music.... Rock on............
MUSICMAN/GUITARMAN..This is freakin fine, my friend..What you do and bring with a guitar is wickedly good...Every instrument you play is a fabulous sound...And you know what?.You have a priceless voice..And not a word sung here, and it is still first class music..And i only have one thing to say about a negative response.Anyone who would give this a negative one is, excuse me, fucking out of thier mind.Likes, stars, thumbs up?..There aren't enough for this one..You are something else.ione marie
@nelsonfan24 Relax mate. It was only a light hearted joke. Being a musician myself, I wouldn't leave stupid and unhelpful comments to anyone, let alone Larry, just to be hurtful, please... Relax already. Larry is a pro, all the way, and we all know this. I commented to Larry that I liked the song and I meant that. I would think and hope that I put a smile on Larry's face at least...
...and so... to answer your question... NO, I am not insane... I think...
2 words: LOVED IT!! Why would anybody respond negatively to it? It's a classic. I can't believe you played the drums too. You're AMAZING... I'd love you to do some more instrumentals. It really shows off your skill. I bet you had a lot of fun putting down all of the tracks. Thanks for posting the video, Larry. Rock on Surfer Dude!
Great version Larry. Odd thing is, lately, a lot of the stuff you post is stuff I'm also working on and I suppose that, coming from the same type of musical background, that's to be expected. This one, however, is so far out of left field that I'm a little startled that we both thought of recording this around the same time.... ; )
What..you get negative responses? It sounds Wonderful to me!, reminds me of my Uncles back in the day as I'd sit and watch their band play those Venture tunes ..... Hey! nice guitar too!
Larry.....You are good, SO damn good...There are people that have good voices and can play instruments....But just knowing how to play is not what real music is in my eyes....Real music is YOU, my friend...That set of pipes you have is GOLD...Not a single word coming out of that mouth and this is still a Fabulous piece....You know why that is?..Along with that voice, the way you play guitar is something NOBODY can touch.....You and your music are Priceless:).......ione marie
