  • I would venture to say that every entertainer that has come after the Man himself owes him a great debt. This man was a rock star before there were rock stars. He was not the king of pop or of rock, but of Entertainment in general. It's a damn shame we may never see another like him.

  • I wish I could go back in time and see him live. PS the black face comes from the Stephen Foster productions of old spirituals in the 1850's and it carried on to the vaudeville years. Yet... Jolie was the best

  • Amazing <3

  • He has such an amazing voice!

  • aaahhhh you little choochy baby face! :-)))

  • Hard to believe he past away only 2 years after this performance.

  • I remember hearing this song sang by the little girl "Darla" on "The Little Rascals". It has been many years since I saw reruns of it, and I might be off on her name?...Friends, Lloyd.

  • @JeffsGreats I'm referencing George "Baby Face" Nelson from O Brother Where Art Thou. He hated being called Baby Face so he would yell at people and say " IT'S GEORGE NELSON!! NOT BABY FACE!!". Its kind of a random joke, but the title reminded me of it.

  • @windowsy39 I do beleive that I have to think that you are right about that.

    Larry is so great in both films.

    Very very too bad he was 'Blacklisted' I'd a`love'd to see what he would have done in the 50's & 60's in some movies.

    He's a great underrated actor.
