Larry John McNally
Приєднався 27 гру 2019
Larry John McNally is an American singer/songwriter/ guitarist born in Bangor, Maine. His first album was released on Columbia Records in 1981. A dozen more have followed.
He is best known for his songs having been recorded by some of the world’s greatest singers: Aaron Neville, The Eagles, Bonnie Raitt, Mavis Staples, Chaka Kahn, Joe Cocker and more. His fluid guitar style has been called “folk-Hendrix” and his singing has won high praise on recent tours of South America, the UK and Europe: “...a charismatic frontman, with a darkly melancholic whiskey-blues voice...”
In a recent interview Bonnie Raitt said: “LarryJohn McNally is one of my favorite writers ever. He’s an undersung, underrated brilliant artist, and he’s constantly putting out records and should be appreciated more than he is.”
In recent years McNally has been recording and touring as 1/2 of the band McNally Waters. McNally and Waters joined forces over a mutual love of the music of New Orleans.

6 AM I’m out the door
I put my hand on your face and give you a kiss goodbye
I get Christmas day off and Thanksgiving and the Fourth of July
Someday soon my son you’ll walk the aisles of glory with your own bride that’s the day you’ll learn the meaning of the word provide
oh, you must provide
When my father sang “Ring of Fire” or really any song at all
It became an Irish song
We’d raise a glass to Ireland
and many a tear would fall
and if he cursed the work that wore him down
I know it was a source of pride
the relentless drumbeat of the song with one word
provide
oh, you must provide
If any provide not for his own
he’s denied the faith worse than an infidel
now I understand the song that says it slowly went by
My father’s Hell
Hey, you may not be respected
or even liked at all, but my brother put your feelings aside because it is written you must provide
oh, you must provide

Nobody’s Girl

Live! Georgetown, Maine July 27, 2019 Nobody’s Girl She don't need anybody to tell her she's pretty. She's heard it every single day of her life. I got to wonder what she sees in me When there's so many others standing in line. She gives herself to me, but I'm still on the outside. She's alone in this world, She's nobody's girl. She's nobody's girl. She shows up at my doorstep in the middle of ...

Beautiful Larry!👏😎
Hey Larry, put some more up from that show. That was great.
First song l learned from Larry. Beautiful tune. Thx Larry. From a hometown Lad.
Thanks for such a perfect song, that fits me / someone I once loved
I didn’t know that by writing my own personal story, I would touch so many others, who’ve felt the same way, lived the same story. All the best to you and those you once loved.
