  • Man.....you sound great. Keep em coming.

  • Larry...There are many types of songs i have listened to over the years, and a lot of them you have covered..This song is one that i always liked...Ever since the day you brought this one to your channel, it is thee only version that i want to and do listen to...It is another example why i love 70's music and your covers of them....ione marie

  • Get rid of the chorus or doubler on your vocals, it sounds like hell.

  • your the only guy whos actually playing all the right chords!! BUt I cant see the left hand ://///

  • Sweet! God job boss.

  • So Excellent !!! Let me get you a scotch...be right back !

    *Mel*

  • I love how the sky gets real dark towards the end and shines brighter than ever when you reach the climax of the song, then goes dark again, but lights up bright on the last word

  • Larry,

    Back for another listen.

    The backlighting of the sun adds a "glowing fun" effect and your enthusiastic animated singing and playing are such a treat !

    One of my many favs, LA Guy

  • you kill it. so awesome

  • I bet your voice doesn't need to be doubled

  • Like this song. I've got a LP from Looking Glass with some more fine songs on it. But haven't heard anything more from them.

  • cool :) check out mine

  • LOVED IT!!!! amazing job.

  • Can someone tell me the chords he is pllaying ?

  • Beautiful!

    

  • You almost make me want to rock a pink shirt. almost.

  • Larry.....There are many words i can use to describe just how damn good this cover really is.........Bottomline is YOU here with your fine gift with music is the only sound my ears ever need and want to hear.....Just always know you bring so many smiles to my face.....ione marie

  • Larry......LOVE IT.....Just makes me smile and love the 70's and your music more and more with every passing day....You ARE one hell of a person :):)....ione marie

  • So you have two voices? That's awesome.

  • Thanks man you rocked this song and you guys that didn't like it can go f***k your selfs

  • You sure you didn't sing the original of this?!?!? LOL, mind blowing performance! Bravo!

  • Larry.....Positively Perfect....I couldn't find a better cover if i tried, but i never would....I know where THE music is...........You are a delight.....ione marie

  • not bad. great song covers

  • nice job

  • Used to do this song in a band in the 80s.. Always loved the tune. You did a real nice job. Really enjoyed it. At the risk of sounding hyper critical, I personally think that if you were trying to fatten the lead vocal, you might back one off so it's in more of support role.. For me it seriously detracts from the performance.. Your voice is strong enough to carry it.. You don't need to do it. Or Just go w/ the best performance and add a bit of echo (ala John Lennon/Instant Karma) or reverb.. :)

  • Dude...you should have way more hits on this,,,What an awesome presentation ..no really it.. it's truly an awesome presentation....I learned this song from you ,many thanks:)

    -Scott

  • Hi Larry, I just have to say ... Amazing guitar playing and singing! When did you start playing? You hit every chord and I personally think it's better than the original!!! Have you done the song Precious and Few? Thanks for the great post!

  • Larry.....Your version of this is the only one that i will/want to/ and love to come to...Just face it, you are so damn good and a pleasure for anyone that comes here....ione marie

  • Oh man, great job!!!

    I loved it.

  • What are the chords?

  • Hey May, I can't believe I haven't come across any of your stuff until now.

    That's a great version of this song

  • Awesome!! Great job!

  • Larry.....No disrespect to to the original but this one, as far as im concerned, is better....the only version i would want to hear of it.......a song everyone knows.....ione marie

  • That's it! I'm hooked on your music, Sir.... You've got great talents. Now I've got to subscribe to your channel. Do you have originals (I'll bet you do)... Love your work! Keep it up. Nice job on this one, too.

  • Way to much reverb on the vocals bud, great guitar player though, way to transition to acoustic

  • Way to much reverb on the vocals bud

    

  • Very smooth.did you double up the vocals? It sounds nice.

  • nice job

  • sounds great

  • sounds great

  • I love this song, it is awesome - and you did a great job

  • have you ever thought about posting lessons? I wanna learn how you play!

  • Great job! Have you thought about doing Bill Withers "Use Me"? I think that would be a perfect song for you.

  • Comment removed

  • How can we find out if you play out live?

  • nice!!!

  • are vocal harmonies dubbed after the fact, or are you using a harmonizer?...anyone?

  • @roysuomki No Harmonizer. Ever.

  • @podline66 Yep no harmonizer in the song. No harmonies. He is just doubling the vocal.

  • wow,that was nice too. Brings me way back when I worked at a sewage plant for the summer. ?1971 or thereabouts. Our motto was "Other people's shit is our bread and butter". :)

  • This guy is such an inspiration...

  • Larry..........Love your version of this great song...........ione marie

  • AMAZING!!! You are by far the closest sounding to the original I've heard yet!

  • please keep your kneck up so we can see the chords... please ....

  • Larry,

    Well done ! You are breathing new life into that classic. Thanks, LA Guy

  • Nice Sound pod.... Thx for posting

  • now what?

    I think you did a better job than Looking Glass!!

    What a great job!!

    Jimmy Loves Mary-Anne......now, there is a song I haven't heard in ages....thanks again for these songs!!

  • love that song...and love your cover!

  • you are AWESOME

  • Larry......always love coming back to this.....it just puts me in a good mood with a smile to boot:):)!!!.....ione marie

  • very nice , very nice indeed

  • Larry, this is really great. Love the rich bass sound you got out of your axe!

  • This and all your other covers are wonderful. Where can I see you in person?

  • Very nice. It's great to find talent here on Youtube. 5 stars and a subscription coming.

  • Awesome. Great song and a great acoustic interpretation of it. The chord changes aren't easy to play on an acoustic guitar (i.e. piano part against the bass line with just a 6 string) but you sound fantastic. Vocals and the production were also there. Kudos to you my friend!! Great post.

  • great cover !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Good job!

    Would love to hear you do a version of either "It's So Nice To Be With You" or "Big City Miss Rutheanne" by Gallery (or "The Gallery") you have a similer voice and guitar style, once again, Good job, keep havin' fun!

  • That is SWEET groove!

  • Wow, what an amazing rendition Larry! I am addicted to your videos. You play beautifuly in every one. This is one of my fav old tunes and u, my friend, did it proud!! Thank you, my ears luv u!!

  • I am so glad I heard "Brandy" on my way home today, It made me want to look up any acoustic covers of this song. Your cover Is the absolute best! You have the feel and timing down beautifully. Great,great job.

  • Thanks for share jugnutgut2 !

    Awesome job !

  • Bravo!! You do a really nice job on guitar as well as vocals. I'm a sixty year old bassist who was asked to learn this song by my group. I have the most fun playing along with YOUR video. Thanks, GREAT job!!  Sincerely, Eddie B from Chicago

  • great job man. i found this video when looking for jimmy loves mary ann for a blog post, but i found this and watched the whole thing. you are talented. peace

  • Where do you perform? I would love to hear your music in person.

  • Great song and you look like you were having fun doing it....I know I sure enjoy listening to it...My only niece was actually named Brandi after this song..your music is fantastic and funtastic..

  • Long live the Summer of '72!! Although I was only 6 1/2 years old, how good could it have really been? DAMN GOOD! I miss my AM transistor radio and those long-lost childhood friends. Thanks for the song Larry ;)

  • Larry, I love this song...reminds me of 3rd grade and spining the yellow labeled Epic 45 on my plastic White Front record player....Love the double tracked vocals....yep and in the North of Spain a lot of gold lockets...and they aren't cheap...even in the gypsy markets!! Well done!

  • Wow...l remember singing this song in grade 7 music class...for sure we all know the lyrics and can sing along!! Well done on a great classic tune, Larry ! Wish you did a lunchtime gig in my town ...what a blast that would be! Great way to spend a lunch hour...lucky folks for sure !

  • When I see someone with a locket on a silver chain I wonder whether it's made of the finest silver from the north of Spain. Oh, the challenges of having all these lyrics running through my head 24X7.

    Larry, you truly do this fun song justice. The light on this video delivered some cool effects, too.

    Jimmy Loves Mary-Anne is indeed another great, underplayed Looking Glass tune. For a different but pleasant take on the same group, don't miss their almost-unknown track "One By One".

  • Could you help me? What is the correct chord??

  • hey man, i love your work, no need to be sarcastic. on a closer listen, you had the right chord, you were just playing it open, whereas in the song it's a c#m7. i didn't mean any offense by it, it just sounded a bit different because you were playing all the chords open is all.

  • larry, great, great cover, and i don't mean to overstep my boundaries but i am pretty sure the fourth chord you're playing in the verse, i think it's a c#m, is wrong. just saying you should look into that

  • Well thanks.. I'll study it intesely.

    After I cash the check for my work on this video..

  • @podline66 haha nice. the guy got owned. excellent work. love this song.

  • @podline66

    LOL  You Rock Larry!

  • @blinknbcr I DONT GET IT...THE SONG IS GREAT AND THE GUITAR AS WELL........IF YOU TRY TO TEAR THE CHORD STRUCTURE APART THEN YOUR MISSING THE WHOLE POINT.........IF YOU CANT FEEL WHAT YOU ARE PLAYING,THEN YOU NEED TO QUIT.

  • what is wrong with me?......your harmonies are GOLD!!!!!

  • Larry.....I love that you are redoing some of your old ones....and they are incredible as ever....you look so happy when you sing....almost as happy as we are for listening....enjoying how that sun is streaming in and out teasing us with that face.........ione marie
