In your own right, You have already achieved the highest level of music, which is playing music just for the joy of playing it which comes from the soul. Which reflects the quality, and how the music is played.
Larry, as I sit here on my 56th birthday, I find myself watching you and this clip about your musical journey and only wish I could play and sing as well as you. I have watched you over the years because we have similar stories and tastes in music, including the loss of a brother. Thank you so much for taking the time to learn your songs and sharing your talent with us. You need to know that you have achieved your dream. You are the musician, like Glen Campbell, who has inspired so many like me who only wish we could be like you. Play on!!
Hey Larry... just discovered you on UA-cam yesterday and am blown away by your version of "Baby, I'd Love you to Want Me"... Never heard it sung like that before.. I LOVE it!. it has struck a real chord with me...😊 Anyone who has grown up and lived with the music of the last 60+ years will definitely agree with all that you've said.. I would not be anywhere near your level musically... but I do strum along and sing a bit with my ukuleles.. I get great pleasure and a lot of comfort from it... It has been both a pleasure and a privilage to hear you sing and play.. Thankyou for putting out this video about your musical journey... All best wishes from Ireland.. ☘️ ❤😊👍🏽
I love you Larry ! No, I'm not gay. What I mean is I love your spirit and your attitude and your drive to be a great musician since you were a young child ! You ARE a great musician !!! That speech on your life is precious. Thank you for opening up like that. I used to listen to The Monkees and More of the Monkees over and over. Love them and Glen Campbell. I recorded him on Larry King singing his 6 biggest hits with just an acoustic guitar, no backing. Fantastic. I transferred it from VHS to digital so it's on my computer. If you want it, I'll send it to you. (I learned how to send large files through DropBox). Greatest concert I ever attended was Andy Williams at the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford CT. Bought 2 tickets by calling PBS while watching a Christmas special to promote Andy Williams Christmas show. Lucked out - front row, center. He kept looking at me and my wife. Real cool. Sang his best Christmas songs - to us. OMG. Anyway, you are my main inspiration now. The way you play and sing. Such a high level of expertise. So many little things you do in songs that probably many people might not pick up on. What you're doing on You Tube is VERY IMPORTANT ! Please keep doing it. Thank you Larry !!!
Hi Larry . First success isn't always what we think it should be. I watched Glenn Campbell and Johnny heartford every week. I ran a guitar shop and even bought an ovation guitar. Guitar playing became an annoyance to those around me so I sat it aside for nearly twenty years. I now play several hours a day and build guitars in my spare time. When I want to play a song I look for your rendition. Your thoroughness and subtleties are as good as anyone I have ever heard. Thanks for you contributions and thank you for letting me know a little about the successful musician you are. From someone who studied classical guitar , taught guitar professionally and worked hard at it ,you are incredible.
Damn I love hearing people talk about the muse like you did just now and we obviously picked up on your talent from all your dedication to this great thing we call music I salute you Larry.
All I can say is you have talent and you were sent here to do that i was born in 58 an I have the voice to sing most any song but guitar skill weak but cause of your videos I am working on it thanks my friend 😉
Hey Larry, thanks for talking about your life as a musician, it means a lot to me! You are one of the best cover artists I've seen on UA-cam, and I take you as a teacher and exemplar.
That was very touching, thank you for sharing your gifts and your heart. I wanted to become a nun for many years as well. Bless your family for always being supportive to your music.
Phil PrH Larry I have just watched this video and I have to say it just demonstrates your passion for music and most importantly your guitar playing. Over the years I have watched your youtube videos and you are an inspiration for anyone who has aspirations about learning guitar, I was 29 years old when a 50 year old friend of mine told me he had bought a guitar and was having private lessons, I had never considered this as something I wanted to do but I did like singing, so I thought I would give it try and bought a Spanish nylon strung cheap guitar. I took up a night school class and then later some private lessons at and the age of 35 I had a family and a very busy job and the two guitars I owned only got used now and then and finally 10 years later went into storage and not used again for 15 years. We later moved house and area and one night I went into this bar and a guitarist was the entertainer and he was covering all the sixties songs that loved and I started wishing I had never stopped so at the age of sixty I started again, and I am still doing it now (not as good as you though) I am now 73 and still not very good at it but just enjoy trying.
Larry, you are an icon in my household on a daily basis. My son thinks you are the greatest ever. He is only 9 years old, and has cerebral palsy since birth. No other videos will do. His first choice is always Larry L. Everyday for over a year now!
Been listening and watching you perform for at least seven years and really enjoy and appreciate your music. Thanks so much for your life story. I have often wondered about that so the mystery is now gone. Your so talented and hopefully you will keep on entertaining for many more years. Stay well.
Hey Larry, Wanted to say when I was a young twenty year old, I was driving out to move to Santa Fe, NM from Louisiana by myself, it was nearing sunset across the vast open land of northern Texas and Wichita Lineman came on the radio. A most beautiful feeling came over me as I drove and listened, and I fell very much in love with the song. Within Glen Campbell's voice in Wichita Lineman lives a most beautiful compassionate spirit. I know, I heard it that late summer afternoon in 1974.
Thank you so much for doing this. I have enjoyed listening to your music & I know many others have as well. This video about your music path was very touching. It's wonderful that you are able to share your talent with us, and take time to share some of the rest of your story!
Hello Larry - I loved hearing about your influences and what drove you. I started playing later in life although I've always been glued to my albums. I ran across your video's many years ago and have been a fan ever since. I understand getting emotional when you work so hard at something and your passion is so high. Anyway I just wanted to tell you that since I've started my musical journey you have been a big influence of mine. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you for sharing your life story you and I have traveled the same path and yes.I remember listening to records over and over trying to get the riffs down down . When the Beatles came out I was hooked my older brother had a record collection and your life story is a mirror of so many young men of our generation It even brought back a memory the first-time we herd credence we set listening to bad mood rising over and over on his brothers 45 car record player hooked to a car battery in his room till the battery died. Love what you do God Bless.
Larry, I love your Reflections recording, just beautiful. I am a new listener but look forward to looking up and listening to more of my favorites. Thanks for sharing your life with us, you are a beautiful person and add so much to the world... keep on recording!
wow, you are a total inspiration! YOU are a great musican. you are a great guitar player, a great singer, and a great entertainer. I have listened and played and recorded music all my life, I feel very fortunate to have found your posts. I'm going to try to listen to at least one song per night until I hear ALL 1000. Thank you so much for your efforts. please know that there is someone out there, everyone feel to chime in, that feels the way about your posts as you feel about the music that you so love and that has moved you over the years! THANK YOU! You ARE so good!
Thanks for sharing Larry. I've been to Reading a few times. We live in the Anthracite Coal Region about an hour or so away. I too am of Polish descent and went to Catholic school but we won't talk about that lol I was born in 1953 and am ever so thankful for living in what I consider the best decade for music EVER, the 60's. Love your videos. You are doing exactly what you should be doing. Few of us can boast such a life.:o)
Thank you for singing Davy Jones and you are a great musician..I too miss Davy Jones and I also enjoy a variety of music but davy is one of my all time favorites.....would learn to learn more about you
Thank you so much for sharing your story. You are truly a blessed musician.The emotions that pour out of you when you are singing touch my soul. I have been watching your videos all day since early morning, Just can't seem to get enough. I too play the guitar but only wish I was half as good as you. Since I found your station I have something to look forward to. Just loving everything ! God Bless you Larry. You have been a blessing to me.
You have been tremendously successful because of the joy you have brought to people. I thoroughly enjoy your videos especially your version of “light My Fire” THANKS!! Phil
This is awesome! I also play guitar and have since the early 60's. Music and my guitar have always been with me as well. I watch your videos often to pick up little tricks in some songs I can't quite figure out. Keep doing what you're doing because it's working. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, Larry. Thank you for sharing and opening your heart to us fans. You know, somehow i identify with your story... your love for music... and the music you love... although i´m from Costa Rica and lived in CR all my life (I´m 59) it´s incredible how much alike our favorite music is. Blessings and keep making music! Your spirit is as BIG as any Rhinestone Cowboy!!!
Never realized you grew up so close to me, I'm from Bethlehem township, Pa. area and about the same age. I also never took lessons but never started guitar until my late 20's, early 30's .Thank you so much for showing me so many things. I appreciate all the time you take to teach people like me over the years. Glad to see someone else shares the love of music. On a side note I can remember doing a report on Glen Campbell in 8th grade. He was such a underappreciated musician. What a talent. Thanks for sharing.
I can finally thank you for sharing SO much talent. I have been watching your videos for several years. I am so impressed with you level of emotion that you put into each song. You have a God given talent! Thanks again and please keep the songs coming!
Larry L, Thanks so much for this video bio. You are a joy to watch and listen to. It is really great to hear the story of you becoming and being a musician. Many of your videos inspire me to practice more often, to try a little harder and hope one day to play like you. I know this is an old video but wow man, you moved me.
So cool larry. Ive only watch one of your video which was Brandy because i love that era, i grew up with those songs. I just want to say Thanks Larry, because i felt alot of passion and history in your voice in this particular video. Music has always been there when i needed it the most and it has never let me down. Keep going pops, there is only a few like you in this world. I will be watching out for more of your music.
Larry, you are a success to me and all of us on here on UA-cam! I can't say how much I enjoy watching and listening to your performances. Please Keep On Truckin" ;) I loved your story and your passion and your genuine love for music comes through so clear and it was all worth it! You don't have to be as big as Glen Campbell to know you made it but you're are a "Glen Campbell" to us! I am a musician like you but no where near as talented but I "get it!" You're The Best! Thank you for sharing your lif'e's story with us. "To The Top!" Joe :)
Hi Larry - only yesterday came across your videos and think they're great. You are so generous with your time; sharing what has taken decades to learn. Such a good voice too!
Thanks Larry,I have found your music about 6 years now and I started to play too,I taught myself the piano and guitar,I have been making some videos too,some are bad but I post them anyway knowing that oneday I WOULD GO BACK AND MAKE EM BETTER AND THAT IS WHAT i HAVE BEEN DOING.I this whole idea from watching and listening to you brother,Your awesome Larry and your loved,Thanks for all you do and thanks for being real,Please don't ever stop,God bless you !
Thanks for posting this, we all appreciate all you do. Would be nice to hear of more of you, like if your married, or have children or other hobbies or interests. Thanks again for the great music and lessons. you've made me like song I didn't know I liked. God bless!
Well now ... this is such a treasure to find ... I am so glad you made this video, Thank You. I'll begin were you did (figured we had to be close in age, I'm 2 years younger) ... Louie, Louie by the Kingsman was one of my favs when young and I have some fantastic memories of it being played on my ex-sister-in-laws 8 track as we cruised about drinking cherry cokes. I watched and loved Glen Campbell (maybe not as much as you but ...) but I like Your music, some of your originals, more than any of his ... really how dare you compare yourself to others ... "... for always there will be those greater and lessor .... " anyway ... so ... I take it you never became a minister (or priest?) ... I became one on-line in 2011 and not just so I could marry someone (like many do) although I have not ever done anything with that ... but I still think about forming a "Chapel of Love". Success is all about how you feel ... and it sounds as if you are fully successful ... I was surprised to find out you had not made a CD (but am not sure maybe you have now???). You did what I did not do in life ... you followed that Love of music ... I did not (although I do really enjoy listening). What you did today just blew me away ... I so look forward to listening to ALL your covers. Love & Peace to All
Wow, I really loved listening to your story, Larry. I have only just discovered your UA-cam channel and am enjoying listening to your music. God bless you and may you live many more years to play your wonderful music.
No larry,thnank you for sharing prt of your life with all of us who love this kind of music you play,you're so talented and above all you're a great and lovely human being..thnks a lot for all your videos which inspire me to keep playing this beautiful instrument called guitar...don't ever stop ok.you've got a new fan from Mexico city...Hats off larry...!!!
Larry, I wish you a very Merry Christmas (2018). I started my day with your "Now & Then" videos and I think I'll end with this one ... or maybe I'll listen to a few of your Christmas songs ... Thank You for allowing yourself to be real here and for ALL your music ...
Larry, I want to thank you for doing this video. I usually never comment on anyone's page but I've followed you for a while now and I just had to comment and say thank you for not only putting yourself out their but thanks for all of your videos and all that you do! It's greatly appreciated by myself and I'm sure a lot of other people! Music is such a fulfilling part of our lives, no matter what level of musicality we are at, it's a blessing. God bless Glenn Campbell and you Larry!
Thank you so much for sharing. Like yourself I also fell in love with music as a kid (I'm around your age) and listened endlessly to albums, however I picked up the guitar later in life but never pursued it as you so it is just a hobby for me and helps me to unwind. Been following your videos for a couple of years and they are inspiring and I have learned from them. Thanks for your dedication and for sharing.
Thank you so much Larry. I really enjoy the music you play and you play and sing very well. Fame and fortune is not the gift. Music is and you have the gift. I was born several years after you, 1963, but I have a lot of the same influences. I love Johnny Mathis. Andy Williams too. I really enjoy going through all your covers because all of them evoke a feeling. That's what makes an artist. Evoking feelings in the listener or observer. You have this gift too. I play the guitar also but I haven't put 1 % of the passion and determination that you have into the art. As the saying goes, "I don't play guitar because I am good at it. I play because I like it". You can really see your love for the music that you play and... you are good at it too. Thanks again Larry and keep playing.
Hi Larry. I enjoyed your story and the genuine way you told it. Like you, music has been my life, and always will be. I was looking for some Gordon Lightfoot covers and came across this video. I'm glad I did. Even though its a little melancholy it put me in a good mood to know that there are others out there who feel the way I do. Now I'll listen to your music... it seems I have a lot to choose from! In my opinion people like Glen Campbell are born great. Yes, they work hard and refine their craft but when all's said and done they also have 'something' that the rest of us don't have, and will never have. So I say do your own thing, enjoy it and let others enjoy it too. Best wishes.
Hey Man, I'm just 21 years old and i am an Iranian! i play Guitar for 10 years then i can feel your emotions even it be only for a little bit! I LOVE YOU, Everynight before sleeping i watch your fantastic Videos and i HONESTLY ENJOY! I got a name by Jim Croce was a MASTERPIECE !!! this video been so emotional at last, I love you Man, and i respect to your Family that have this DIAMOND! you are my Heart's Johnny Cash or Elvis Presley! Man... You are my hero ❤
You have my respect Mr.; L. Like you I too have a deep passion for the music. As long as you continue to upload, I'll continue to listen and enjoy. Thank you for all the wonderful covers. Please continue to make music. I have a physical disability called Cerebral Palsy, that limits me from everyday activities like everyone else. Your videos have touched me inside and kept me strong. The music you cover is some of my favorites... The oldies. Thank you so much for putting smiles on me and my mom's faces. With much respect... -Kyle D.
You inspire people, you are what real people are, you must never stop. I love your piano works. I am 52 yrs old and just wish I could play like you. God has blessed you to move others. Thank you so much. Please keep going on the never ending road. Thank you very much.
Thanks for opening up and sharing about your life and family Larry. I always enjoy watching and listening to your videos. Thank you for posting them and thank you for sharing your time and talent. Brian from Winslow Az!
Larry, I’ve always enjoyed your immense talents, and think of you whenever I watch anybody that has talent, but not yet discovered by the masses. You left us a while ago, but thankfully through the miracle of video recording, and you gifting us with your fine efforts, you’re always with us, on demand, 24/7. I take comfort knowing that, and I thank you. I even like hearing you talk, sharing your life, interested in hearing whatever you have to say. RIP Larry, thank you so much for sharing. I hope there is something for us after we finish up on this earth. I hope to hear you play again. Your anecdote about Glen Campbell was terrific, because like you, he made me want to play. I remember walking up to the drugstore to buy some hairspray so I might get my hair to look like his. I, unlike you, didn’t have the talent, or the drive after I got kicked out of band in 6th or 7th grade because I had zero natural talent. I figured the teacher was right, no Hollywood script here, because my parents were not, or maybe did not know how to, reinforce and support my struggle. For anyone seeking Larry’s obituary, it can be found online. His full name to search is Larry Ludwikowski.
I only recently discovered your videos and I enjoy them immensely. Your guitar playing completely floors me, and your voice and the passion you perform with is extraordinary. I see this was posted years ago so I don't know if you still check the comments, but I am very glad you posted this bit about yourself. I've been curious to know more about you. We are about the same age, within a couple years, and our stories are quite similar. I too am addicted to music, but I can't play like you brother. I so wish that I could. I like to think I'm a decent song writer, but damn I wish I could play like you. I said that twice cause I mean it. Keep entertaining us Larry. You are a force of nature.
Larry, I appreaciate your sharing and I think you are a great guitar player and musician.Listening to you reminds me a little of myself as I also love to play the guitar and the songs that I play are rather similar to those that you posted. I stumbled upon your guitar tutorial and really did learn alot from it. Great work.
Hey Larry, I watched the most of your videos and loved all of them! I even showed your covers of Beatles to my teacher who is a 70-year-old Scottish lady. She has become a fan of you! It is awesome to hear your story here and please keep doing what you are doing.
Larry, thanks for sharing. Born 1958 myself, your story is much like mine. For me, you're right up there with +Jim Croce, James Taylor, Bobby Goldsboro and yes, +Glen Campbell. Your renditions touches our hearts and brings back fond memories. That goes beyond any measurement of success. God blessed you with a wonderful gift.
Hi Larry, I found your videos on UA-cam by accident, but I have to say that I'm glad I did. Your passion for music really shows in this 'documentary' about yourself, you also show that you have many musical influences and like all types of music. Keep up the good work. All the best, Gordon Taylor, Scotland UK
+Larry L, I just saw your Channel tonight and listened for almost 15 of your songs, I love your voice and how you sing. You're a Good Singer. ;), don't cry, hello.... You're good. You're loved. And also thanks for sharing your life. You're Not alone we're here for you.
Yes, you are loved Larry. I am a little older than you, Polish, and born in Hawaii. The 60’s were so much fun. We all have our own history and how we got thru it. I am so happy you followed your passion so in that you are a success! Doing what you are meant to do is the best choice you can do for yourself. I will pray someone will see you and make your dreams come true. You are that good! Music is about truth and heartfelt meaning. When it comes from the heart you can’t go wrong. Keep on playing🎸and singing 🎤!
Hi Larry, I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed hearing about your life and how much I truly enjoy your music. You and I share a love for music and I too can remember spending every dime I had buying 45s and albums when I was a child and a teenager. I still have all of my 45s and albums. You, my friend, are a true talent and you sing and play beautifully. I often like your version of a song better than the original. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. By the way, Glen Campbell is one of my favorites as well.
Larry ...you have an amazing soulful voice not to mention your guitar skills ...thank you for blessing us all with your unique way of singing with feeling ......love your voice and your honesty .....may God bless you and your family
Larry , your obviously a man of vast intellectual and emotional growth. Thank you for sharing your story and masterful covers and remember there are many yardsticks for success the least being fame and fortune. Good luck and keep pursuing your own identity in music.
Larry, thank you for your story. I can't believe you never had a guitar lesson because you are very accomplished and your arrangements are great and inspiring. Louie louie was my first attempt at trying to play guitar as well. Please keepthe songs coming as you are truly blessed. As they say, its the journey thats important and not the finish and your journey inspires many of us. Your family would be proud!
Larry, Thank you very much for sharing your passion and talent with the world. In the past only a few of your friends and family would have enjoyed your music - now the whole world has chance to heart it. Thanks again - best wishes!
Fantastic story of your like Larry, and I really enjoyed the run down so much, and it made emotional hearing your story.. I love to perform myself, but I didn't made to your level... So, you did super my friend with over 10.000.000 views you should be proud of yourself..I myself is proud getting over 1,000,000 views, but I guess I didn't practice enough like you... Peace, stay safe, smile & God Bless you always:-)
Larry I saw this when you originally posted it but revisited it today by happenstance. You have achieved quite a bit but more importantly you've brought joy to this world with your musical talent. That is an awesome thing my friend! You continually amaze with with the variety of your performances. And yes your rendition of "Wichita Lineman" would delight Mr. Campbell as much as it does me.
Larry you're an amazing kind person . Thank you for sharing . When ever I see a video of someone playing and singing without feeling or emotion , i use to be guilty of that until I saw your videos lol .I send them over to your channel to get an idea how to capture what's missing . I'm 63 and like yourself , self taught . Traded my older brother for his guitar for my BB gun when I was 11 . Had to sneak out with my Green Apple Beatle book pd 1.50 for it , we weren't allowed to listen to "Devils music" . Anyways for Thanksgiving I went to my farm in Mo. I sang and played "Heart of Gold " to my grandkids ...not a dry eye out of all 10 of them ... Guess what ?...2 of my granddaughters set me up with their mother in laws ! Thank you For all you do :)
Thank you for sharing that Larry, it was very up front and personal and very courageous of you. I am a year older and have so many of the same influences in my musical tastes. I just listened through your tutorial on Riverside, loved it!! Very inspiring! Success is getting up in the morning and going to bed at night and inbetween, doing what you really want to do. Bob Dylan said that. The way you play these songs and the huge range you cover is brilliant, make no mistake about it. You are a huge success and I hope you can allow yourself to accept this truth. Thanks for the music and inspiration. I hope you are out there every day playing because the world needs live music played the way you do it. A life very well spent!
Thank you for sharing this and for all of your videos. I am now 60 years old and have just recently found a passion for music and trying to teach myself how to play the guitar. I am not musically inclined, thus I'm not very good, but each day I am driven to play.
Wow!..Thanks to your very inspirational story, You've made day!..I watched you all the time..thanks for entertaining us..Keep posting your music video and God bless you Larry!
Thank you Larry for sharing something about your background, I am writing from Peru, and I´m your fan number one, I really appreciate your talent. thanks again and I´ll be looking forward to your next video.
If You are happy your a success. Man I've Played most my life. I have had 8 hr a day jobs to support my family, I've forgotten lots of songs. I've been in bands most of my life. made some money doing what I Love To Do on the week ends.... I am a year older than you. I messed up my back about 8 years ago and could no longer do the band thing. But I did Go back try and did it for 2 more years. BUT NO MORE! I Miss being part of a band. But I have got to play a little every day. I thought I would go back and re visit tunes of my youth and learn some of the great music form the 70's. And that is how I found your You Tube Page. And I Got To Tell You, Your Dam GOOD! I enjoy learning from you. THANK YOU SO MUCH! A New Fan.... Rick...
Fascinating. Im close to your age so I can relate to much of your story. I also got an Andy Williams album for Xmas as a Kid and played it to death. I also did the morning face in the old stereo rocking Dave Clark 5 lol . OMG I also had the little recorder machine and taped tunes endlessly. I too feel an intense love for music.... Still do. My folks from The South so I too worshipped Glen Campbell. Wichitaw Lineman still gives me chills to this day. Played that album to death as well. Saw him front row and I was in heaven. You are amazing! Thanks for the joy you share, you are a divine talent. Gee so much fun listening to you. Stay well~
I took clarinet in high school and l was in senior band in grade 9. I spent all my free time practising, took piano as well. But l mostly liked to play by ear and from 5 years of age l absolutely loved music. It is so interesting to hear your story Larry, because l think when you discover that you have a gift and the sky is the limit, it is the most beautiful journey to take in your whole life! You are so gifted, and l love your voice, your playing, all very well done! Thank you again, Larry.
Hey Larry ! I'm from Brazil and it's been so nice hearing a little bit about your life ! I love your work ! Thanks for sharing your talent you're an awesome musician and a great human being as well!
Recently subscribed to you and stumbled upon this video. Really enjoyed it and really enjoy your covers. It's nice to know some background of the people I've subscribed to, takes guts to put yourself out there like that but how else will people get to know the man behind the music. Keep up the music!
In your own right, You have already achieved the highest level of music, which is playing music just for the joy of playing it which comes from the soul. Which reflects the quality, and how the music is played.
That was deep and it is true, thanks for your comment.
RIP Larry. Enjoying your music today as I think about you
Larry, as I sit here on my 56th birthday, I find myself watching you and this clip about your musical journey and only wish I could play and sing as well as you. I have watched you over the years because we have similar stories and tastes in music, including the loss of a brother. Thank you so much for taking the time to learn your songs and sharing your talent with us. You need to know that you have achieved your dream. You are the musician, like Glen Campbell, who has inspired so many like me who only wish we could be like you. Play on!!
You're Fuckin Awesome and Don't you 4 get it
Hey Larry... just discovered you on UA-cam yesterday and am blown away by your version of "Baby, I'd Love you to Want Me"...
Never heard it sung like that before.. I LOVE it!. it has struck a real chord with me...😊
Anyone who has grown up and lived with the music of the last 60+ years will definitely agree with all that you've said..
I would not be anywhere near your level musically... but I do strum along and sing a bit with my ukuleles.. I get great pleasure and a lot of comfort from it...
It has been both a pleasure and a privilage to hear you sing and play..
Thankyou for putting out this video about your musical journey...
All best wishes from Ireland.. ☘️
❤😊👍🏽
I love you Larry ! No, I'm not gay. What I mean is I love your spirit and your attitude and your drive to be a great musician since you were a young child ! You ARE a great musician !!! That speech on your life is precious. Thank you for opening up like that. I used to listen to The Monkees and More of the Monkees over and over. Love them and Glen Campbell. I recorded him on Larry King singing his 6 biggest hits with just an acoustic guitar, no backing. Fantastic. I transferred it from VHS to digital so it's on my computer. If you want it, I'll send it to you. (I learned how to send large files through DropBox). Greatest concert I ever attended was Andy Williams at the Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford CT. Bought 2 tickets by calling PBS while watching a Christmas special to promote Andy Williams Christmas show. Lucked out - front row, center. He kept looking at me and my wife. Real cool. Sang his best Christmas songs - to us. OMG. Anyway, you are my main inspiration now. The way you play and sing. Such a high level of expertise. So many little things you do in songs that probably many people might not pick up on. What you're doing on You Tube is VERY IMPORTANT ! Please keep doing it. Thank you Larry !!!
I can relate you brother. Larry has spirit of humanity by his music..
That was refreshingly real. Only the good die young. Rest easy Larry.
Hi Larry . First success isn't always what we think it should be. I watched Glenn Campbell and Johnny heartford every week. I ran a guitar shop and even bought an ovation guitar. Guitar playing became an annoyance to those around me so I sat it aside for nearly twenty years. I now play several hours a day and build guitars in my spare time. When I want to play a song I look for your rendition. Your thoroughness and subtleties are as good as anyone I have ever heard. Thanks for you contributions and thank you for letting me know a little about the successful musician you are. From someone who studied classical guitar , taught guitar professionally and worked hard at it ,you are incredible.
Just happened upon your post last night by accident. Wife went to bed at 10...I stayed up till 2 watching your videos! Good stuff amigo.
Damn I love hearing people talk about the muse like you did just now and we obviously picked up on your talent from all your dedication to this great thing we call music I salute you Larry.
Larry your music matters a lot to me, I enjoy listening to it and understand the lyrics better. Gracias amigo
Larry, to me you are an entertainer. You've brought immeasurable joy to all of us.
All I can say is you have talent and you were sent here to do that i was born in 58 an I have the voice to sing most any song but guitar skill weak but cause of your videos I am working on it thanks my friend 😉
Hey Larry, thanks for talking about your life as a musician, it means a lot to me! You are one of the best cover artists I've seen on UA-cam, and I take you as a teacher and exemplar.
That was very touching, thank you for sharing your gifts and your heart. I wanted to become a nun for many years as well. Bless your family for always being supportive to your music.
Un grand Merci pour toutes ces belles chansons si bien jouées et chantées !
Respect. de France !

Larry I have just watched this video and I have to say it just demonstrates your passion for music and most importantly your guitar playing. Over the years I have watched your youtube videos and you are an inspiration for anyone who has aspirations about learning guitar, I was 29 years old when a 50 year old friend of mine told me he had bought a guitar and was having private lessons, I had never considered this as something I wanted to do but I did like singing, so I thought I would give it try and bought a Spanish nylon strung cheap guitar.
I took up a night school class and then later some private lessons at and the age of 35 I had a family and a very busy job and the two guitars I owned only got used now and then and finally 10 years later went into storage and not used again for 15 years. We later moved house and area and one night I went into this bar and a guitarist was the entertainer and he was covering all the sixties songs that loved and I started wishing I had never stopped so at the age of sixty I started again, and I am still doing it now (not as good as you though) I am now 73 and still not very good at it but just enjoy trying.
Larry, you are an icon in my household on a daily basis. My son thinks you are the greatest ever. He is only 9 years old, and has cerebral palsy since birth. No other videos will do. His first choice is always Larry L. Everyday for over a year now!
Stephanie Lee yes Larry is an inspiration n he don’t realize it. God bless your son n you for taking the responsibility 🙏🙏🙏🖖
Thanks Larry for all the videos,because of those videos I learned to play the guitar. Thanks for all you do.
Been listening and watching you perform for at least seven years and really enjoy and appreciate your music. Thanks so much for your life story. I have often wondered about that so the mystery is now gone. Your so talented and hopefully you will keep on entertaining for many more years. Stay well.
Really enjoy your music and appreciate the effort and honesty that you put out there. Many thanks to you and best wishes from Calgary.
Thankyou for sharing Larry, yours is a wonderful story. You have brought much joy to people with your music including myself, thankyou agian.
Hey Larry, Wanted to say when I was a young twenty year old, I was driving out to move to Santa Fe, NM from Louisiana by myself, it was nearing sunset across the vast open land of northern Texas and Wichita Lineman came on the radio. A most beautiful feeling came over me as I drove and listened, and I fell very much in love with the song. Within Glen Campbell's voice in Wichita Lineman lives a most beautiful compassionate spirit. I know, I heard it that late summer afternoon in 1974.
Thanks Larry, just started watching your videos this week. I truly love the music you're making.
Thank you so much for doing this. I have enjoyed listening to your music & I know many others have as well. This video about your music path was very touching. It's wonderful that you are able to share your talent with us, and take time to share some of the rest of your story!
Hey LL: Thanks for all your video posts. Have learned a lot, especially the songs in alternate tunings. Peace.
You're such an outstanding individual. Love coming back to this channel to enjoy some feel good music. That really was an enjoyable short life story.
Hello Larry - I loved hearing about your influences and what drove you. I started playing later in life although I've always been glued to my albums. I ran across your video's many years ago and have been a fan ever since. I understand getting emotional when you work so hard at something and your passion is so high. Anyway I just wanted to tell you that since I've started my musical journey you have been a big influence of mine. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you for sharing your life story you and I have traveled the same path and yes.I remember listening to records over and over trying to get the riffs down down . When the Beatles came out I was hooked my older brother had a record collection and your life story is a mirror of so many young men of our generation It even brought back a memory the first-time we herd credence we set listening to bad mood rising over and over on his brothers 45 car record player hooked to a car battery in his room till the battery died. Love what you do God Bless.
Thank you for opening up your heart to us and for your beautiful music. God bless you!
Larry,
I love your Reflections recording, just beautiful. I am a new listener but look forward to looking up and listening to more of my favorites. Thanks for sharing your life with us, you are a beautiful person and add so much to the world... keep on recording!
wow, you are a total inspiration! YOU are a great musican. you are a great guitar player, a great singer, and a great entertainer. I have listened and played and recorded music all my life, I feel very fortunate to have found your posts. I'm going to try to listen to at least one song per night until I hear ALL 1000. Thank you so much for your efforts. please know that there is someone out there, everyone feel to chime in, that feels the way about your posts as you feel about the music that you so love and that has moved you over the years! THANK YOU! You ARE so good!
i ADORE YOU! T thank you for sharing your personal thoughts and experiences. This is a new a different experience for me. and I appreciate your input.
Thanks for sharing Larry. I've been to Reading a few times. We live in the Anthracite Coal Region about an hour or so away. I too am of Polish descent and went to Catholic school but we won't talk about that lol I was born in 1953 and am ever so thankful for living in what I consider the best decade for music EVER, the 60's. Love your videos. You are doing exactly what you should be doing. Few of us can boast such a life.:o)
Thank you for singing Davy Jones and you are a great musician..I too miss Davy Jones and I also enjoy a variety of music but davy is one of my all time favorites.....would learn to learn more about you
Thank you so much for sharing your story. You are truly a blessed musician.The emotions that pour out of you when you are singing touch my soul. I have been watching your videos all day since early morning, Just can't seem to get enough. I too play the guitar but only wish I was half as good as you. Since I found your station I have something to look forward to. Just loving everything ! God Bless you Larry. You have been a blessing to me.
You have been tremendously successful because of the joy you have brought to people. I thoroughly enjoy your videos especially your version of “light My Fire” THANKS!! Phil
This is awesome! I also play guitar and have since the early 60's. Music and my guitar have always been with me as well. I watch your videos often to pick up little tricks in some songs I can't quite figure out. Keep doing what you're doing because it's working. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, Larry. Thank you for sharing and opening your heart to us fans. You know, somehow i identify with your story... your love for music... and the music you love... although i´m from Costa Rica and lived in CR all my life (I´m 59) it´s incredible how much alike our favorite music is. Blessings and keep making music! Your spirit is as BIG as any Rhinestone Cowboy!!!
Never realized you grew up so close to me, I'm from Bethlehem township, Pa. area and about the same age. I also never took lessons but never started guitar until my late 20's, early 30's .Thank you so much for showing me so many things. I appreciate all the time you take to teach people like me over the years. Glad to see someone else shares the love of music. On a side note I can remember doing a report on Glen Campbell in 8th grade. He was such a underappreciated musician. What a talent. Thanks for sharing.
I can finally thank you for sharing SO much talent. I have been watching your videos for several years. I am so impressed with you level of emotion that you put into each song. You have a God given talent! Thanks again and please keep the songs coming!
Larry, you are a class act. You're guitar-playing and singing have brought me many moments of joy. Thanx 4 sharing with us the Rock for our Souls ^_^
Just watched it twice: man, you have won, you are a sucess...I do thank you for your love, your kindness and your respect. Thanks for the ride!
Larry L, Thanks so much for this video bio. You are a joy to watch and listen to. It is really great to hear the story of you becoming and being a musician. Many of your videos inspire me to practice more often, to try a little harder and hope one day to play like you. I know this is an old video but wow man, you moved me.
So cool larry. Ive only watch one of your video which was Brandy because i love that era, i grew up with those songs. I just want to say Thanks Larry, because i felt alot of passion and history in your voice in this particular video. Music has always been there when i needed it the most and it has never let me down. Keep going pops, there is only a few like you in this world. I will be watching out for more of your music.
Larry, you are a success to me and all of us on here on UA-cam! I can't say how much I enjoy watching and listening to your performances. Please Keep On Truckin" ;) I loved your story and your passion and your genuine love for music comes through so clear and it was all worth it! You don't have to be as big as Glen Campbell to know you made it but you're are a "Glen Campbell" to us! I am a musician like you but no where near as talented but I "get it!" You're The Best! Thank you for sharing your lif'e's story with us. "To The Top!" Joe :)
Hi Larry - only yesterday came across your videos and think they're great. You are so generous with your time; sharing what has taken decades to learn. Such a good voice too!
Thanks Larry,I have found your music about 6 years now and I started to play too,I taught myself the piano and guitar,I have been making some videos too,some are bad but I post them anyway knowing that oneday I WOULD GO BACK AND MAKE EM BETTER AND THAT IS WHAT i HAVE BEEN DOING.I this whole idea from watching and listening to you brother,Your awesome Larry and your loved,Thanks for all you do and thanks for being real,Please don't ever stop,God bless you !
Thanks for posting this, we all appreciate all you do. Would be nice to hear of more of you, like if your married, or have children or other hobbies or interests. Thanks again for the great music and lessons. you've made me like song I didn't know I liked. God bless!
Well now ... this is such a treasure to find ... I am so glad you made this video, Thank You. I'll begin were you did (figured we had to be close in age, I'm 2 years younger) ... Louie, Louie by the Kingsman was one of my favs when young and I have some fantastic memories of it being played on my ex-sister-in-laws 8 track as we cruised about drinking cherry cokes. I watched and loved Glen Campbell (maybe not as much as you but ...) but I like Your music, some of your originals, more than any of his ... really how dare you compare yourself to others ... "... for always there will be those greater and lessor .... " anyway ... so ... I take it you never became a minister (or priest?) ... I became one on-line in 2011 and not just so I could marry someone (like many do) although I have not ever done anything with that ... but I still think about forming a "Chapel of Love". Success is all about how you feel ... and it sounds as if you are fully successful ... I was surprised to find out you had not made a CD (but am not sure maybe you have now???). You did what I did not do in life ... you followed that Love of music ... I did not (although I do really enjoy listening). What you did today just blew me away ... I so look forward to listening to ALL your covers. Love & Peace to All
Thanks for sharing. I appreciate you sharing your story. I can relate to many of the things you said. Blessings to you and yours, Steve
Wow, I really loved listening to your story, Larry. I have only just discovered your UA-cam channel and am enjoying listening to your music. God bless you and may you live many more years to play your wonderful music.
Larry, thank you for sharing. It makes listening to your music so much the better.
Luis
No larry,thnank you for sharing prt of your life with all of us who love this kind of music you play,you're so talented and above all you're a great and lovely human being..thnks a lot for all your videos which inspire me to keep playing this beautiful instrument called guitar...don't ever stop ok.you've got a new fan from Mexico city...Hats off larry...!!!
Larry, I wish you a very Merry Christmas (2018). I started my day with your "Now & Then" videos and I think I'll end with this one ... or maybe I'll listen to a few of your Christmas songs ... Thank You for allowing yourself to be real here and for ALL your music ...
I just stumbled on your youtube for "Pieces of April". I have watched a few others and enjoyed them all. Thanks for sharing your story!
Larry, I want to thank you for doing this video. I usually never comment on anyone's page but I've followed you for a while now and I just had to comment and say thank you for not only putting yourself out their but thanks for all of your videos and all that you do! It's greatly appreciated by myself and I'm sure a lot of other people! Music is such a fulfilling part of our lives, no matter what level of musicality we are at, it's a blessing. God bless Glenn Campbell and you Larry!
Thank you so much for sharing. Like yourself I also fell in love with music as a kid (I'm around your age) and listened endlessly to albums, however I picked up the guitar later in life but never pursued it as you so it is just a hobby for me and helps me to unwind. Been following your videos for a couple of years and they are inspiring and I have learned from them. Thanks for your dedication and for sharing.
Thank you so much Larry. I really enjoy the music you play and you play and sing very well. Fame and fortune is not the gift. Music is and you have the gift. I was born several years after you, 1963, but I have a lot of the same influences. I love Johnny Mathis. Andy Williams too. I really enjoy going through all your covers because all of them evoke a feeling. That's what makes an artist. Evoking feelings in the listener or observer. You have this gift too. I play the guitar also but I haven't put 1 % of the passion and determination that you have into the art. As the saying goes, "I don't play guitar because I am good at it. I play because I like it". You can really see your love for the music that you play and... you are good at it too. Thanks again Larry and keep playing.
Hi Larry. I enjoyed your story and the genuine way you told it. Like you, music has been my life, and always will be. I was looking for some Gordon Lightfoot covers and came across this video. I'm glad I did. Even though its a little melancholy it put me in a good mood to know that there are others out there who feel the way I do. Now I'll listen to your music... it seems I have a lot to choose from!
In my opinion people like Glen Campbell are born great. Yes, they work hard and refine their craft but when all's said and done they also have 'something' that the rest of us don't have, and will never have. So I say do your own thing, enjoy it and let others enjoy it too.
Best wishes.
Hey Man, I'm just 21 years old and i am an Iranian! i play Guitar for 10 years then i can feel your emotions even it be only for a little bit! I LOVE YOU, Everynight before sleeping i watch your fantastic Videos and i HONESTLY ENJOY! I got a name by Jim Croce was a MASTERPIECE !!!
this video been so emotional at last, I love you Man, and i respect to your Family that have this DIAMOND! you are my Heart's Johnny Cash or Elvis Presley! Man... You are my hero ❤
You have my respect Mr.; L. Like you I too have a deep passion for the music. As long as you continue to upload, I'll continue to listen and enjoy. Thank you for all the wonderful covers. Please continue to make music. I have a physical disability called Cerebral Palsy, that limits me from everyday activities like everyone else. Your videos have touched me inside and kept me strong. The music you cover is some of my favorites... The oldies. Thank you so much for putting smiles on me and my mom's faces.
With much respect...
-Kyle D.
You inspire people, you are what real people are, you must never stop. I love your piano works. I am 52 yrs old and just wish I could play like you. God has blessed you to move others. Thank you so much. Please keep going on the never ending road. Thank you very much.
Thanks for opening up and sharing about your life and family Larry. I always enjoy watching and listening to your videos. Thank you for posting them and thank you for sharing your time and talent. Brian from Winslow Az!
Larry, I’ve always enjoyed your immense talents, and think of you whenever I watch anybody that has talent, but not yet discovered by the masses. You left us a while ago, but thankfully through the miracle of video recording, and you gifting us with your fine efforts, you’re always with us, on demand, 24/7.
I take comfort knowing that, and I thank you.
I even like hearing you talk, sharing your life, interested in hearing whatever you have to say.
RIP Larry, thank you so much for sharing. I hope there is something for us after we finish up on this earth. I hope to hear you play again.
Your anecdote about Glen Campbell was terrific, because like you, he made me want to play. I remember walking up to the drugstore to buy some hairspray so I might get my hair to look like his.
I, unlike you, didn’t have the talent, or the drive after I got kicked out of band in 6th or 7th grade because I had zero natural talent. I figured the teacher was right, no Hollywood script here, because my parents were not, or maybe did not know how to, reinforce and support my struggle.
For anyone seeking Larry’s obituary, it can be found online. His full name to search is Larry Ludwikowski.
Your music is amazing!!!!! I cant get enough of it. You make listening to music fun,
I just stumbled across you.
I've been teaching my entire life. I appreciate what you're doing.
Peace.
I only recently discovered your videos and I enjoy them immensely. Your guitar playing completely floors me, and your voice and the passion you perform with is extraordinary. I see this was posted years ago so I don't know if you still check the comments, but I am very glad you posted this bit about yourself. I've been curious to know more about you. We are about the same age, within a couple years, and our stories are quite similar. I too am addicted to music, but I can't play like you brother. I so wish that I could. I like to think I'm a decent song writer, but damn I wish I could play like you. I said that twice cause I mean it. Keep entertaining us Larry. You are a force of nature.
Larry, I appreaciate your sharing and I think you are a great guitar player and musician.Listening to you reminds me a little of myself as I also love to play the guitar and the songs that I play are rather similar to those that you posted. I stumbled upon your guitar tutorial and really did learn alot from it. Great work.
Hey Larry, I watched the most of your videos and loved all of them! I even showed your covers of Beatles to my teacher who is a 70-year-old Scottish lady. She has become a fan of you!
It is awesome to hear your story here and please keep doing what you are doing.
Larry, thanks for sharing. Born 1958 myself, your story is much like mine. For me, you're right up there with +Jim Croce, James Taylor, Bobby Goldsboro and yes, +Glen Campbell. Your renditions touches our hearts and brings back fond memories. That goes beyond any measurement of success. God blessed you with a wonderful gift.
You're such a genuine soul and a helluva classy guy, Larry. I'm glad to have found your channel.
Hi Larry, I found your videos on UA-cam by accident, but I have to say that I'm glad I did. Your passion for music really shows in this 'documentary' about yourself, you also show that you have many musical influences and like all types of music. Keep up the good work. All the best, Gordon Taylor, Scotland UK
+Larry L, I just saw your Channel tonight and listened for almost 15 of your songs, I love your voice and how you sing. You're a Good Singer. ;), don't cry, hello.... You're good. You're loved. And also thanks for sharing your life. You're Not alone we're here for you.
Yes, you are loved Larry. I am a little older than you, Polish, and born in Hawaii. The 60’s were so much fun. We all have our own history and how we got thru it. I am so happy you followed your passion so in that you are a success! Doing what you are meant to do is the best choice you can do for yourself. I will pray someone will see you and make your dreams come true. You are that good! Music is about truth and heartfelt meaning. When it comes from the heart you can’t go wrong. Keep on playing🎸and singing 🎤!
Hi Larry, I can't begin to tell you how much I enjoyed hearing about your life and how much I truly enjoy your music. You and I share a love for music and I too can remember spending every dime I had buying 45s and albums when I was a child and a teenager. I still have all of my 45s and albums. You, my friend, are a true talent and you sing and play beautifully. I often like your version of a song better than the original. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. By the way, Glen Campbell is one of my favorites as well.
Larry ...you have an amazing soulful voice not to mention your guitar skills ...thank you for blessing us all with your unique way of singing with feeling ......love your voice and your honesty .....may God bless you and your family
Larry , your obviously a man of vast intellectual and emotional growth. Thank you for sharing your story and masterful covers and remember there are many yardsticks for success the least being fame and fortune. Good luck and keep pursuing your own identity in music.
Love your voice! Very spiritual and you have a wonderful smile! Xxx
Very touching. I love learning about people. Thank you for sharing
Larry, thank you for your story. I can't believe you never had a guitar lesson because you are very accomplished and your arrangements are great and inspiring. Louie louie was my first attempt at trying to play guitar as well. Please keepthe songs coming as you are truly blessed. As they say, its the journey thats important and not the finish and your journey inspires many of us. Your family would be proud!
This is beautiful, Larry. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hi Larry. I am from Brazil. I listen your music and i say you are good man, just the way you are. Just play. God bless you.
Larry,
Thank you very much for sharing your passion and talent with the world. In the past only a few of your friends and family would have enjoyed your music - now the whole world has chance to heart it.
Thanks again - best wishes!
Fantastic story of your like Larry, and I really enjoyed the run down so much, and it made emotional hearing your story.. I love to perform myself, but I didn't made to your level... So, you did super my friend with over 10.000.000 views you should be proud of yourself..I myself is proud getting over 1,000,000 views, but I guess I didn't practice enough like you... Peace, stay safe, smile & God Bless you always:-)
Larry I saw this when you originally posted it but revisited it today by happenstance. You have achieved quite a bit but more importantly you've brought joy to this world with your musical talent. That is an awesome thing my friend! You continually amaze with with the variety of your performances. And yes your rendition of "Wichita Lineman" would delight Mr. Campbell as much as it does me.
I just discovered your channel and loved listening to this. I Hope you are keeping well👍🏻
Larry you're an amazing kind person . Thank you for sharing . When ever I see a video of someone playing and singing without feeling or emotion , i use to be guilty of that until I saw your videos lol .I send them over to your channel to get an idea how to capture what's missing . I'm 63 and like yourself , self taught . Traded my older brother for his guitar for my BB gun when I was 11 . Had to sneak out with my Green Apple Beatle book pd 1.50 for it , we weren't allowed to listen to "Devils music" . Anyways for Thanksgiving I went to my farm in Mo. I sang and played "Heart of Gold " to my grandkids ...not a dry eye out of all 10 of them ... Guess what ?...2 of my granddaughters set me up with their mother in laws ! Thank you For all you do :)
I appreciate your work Larry. I learn so much from you. Thank you.
Dang, how do you like a video multiple times.
Wonderful story Larry. Absolutely wonderful.
Thank you for sharing that Larry, it was very up front and personal and very courageous of you. I am a year older and have so many of the same influences in my musical tastes. I just listened through your tutorial on Riverside, loved it!! Very inspiring! Success is getting up in the morning and going to bed at night and inbetween, doing what you really want to do. Bob Dylan said that. The way you play these songs and the huge range you cover is brilliant, make no mistake about it. You are a huge success and I hope you can allow yourself to accept this truth. Thanks for the music and inspiration. I hope you are out there every day playing because the world needs live music played the way you do it. A life very well spent!
Thank you for sharing this and for all of your videos. I am now 60 years old and have just recently found a passion for music and trying to teach myself how to play the guitar. I am not musically inclined, thus I'm not very good, but each day I am driven to play.
Wow!..Thanks to your very inspirational story, You've made day!..I watched you all the time..thanks for entertaining us..Keep posting your music video and God bless you Larry!
'Louie Louie' is the first song THAT I learned to play on guitar! Was a pleasure listening to this!
Great story, thanks for sharing!
Thank you Larry for sharing something about your background, I am writing from Peru, and I´m your fan number one, I really appreciate your talent. thanks again and I´ll be looking forward to your next video.
My heart hurts, thinking of you Larry. I really miss you. Rest in peace. 😭😭😭😭😭
If You are happy your a success. Man I've Played most my life. I have had 8 hr a day jobs to support my family, I've forgotten lots of songs. I've been in bands most of my life. made some money doing what I Love To Do on the week ends.... I am a year older than you. I messed up my back about 8 years ago and could no longer do the band thing. But I did Go back try and did it for 2 more years. BUT NO MORE! I Miss being part of a band. But I have got to play a little every day. I thought I would go back and re visit tunes of my youth and learn some of the great music form the 70's. And that is how I found your You Tube Page. And I Got To Tell You, Your Dam GOOD! I enjoy learning from you. THANK YOU SO MUCH! A New Fan....
Rick...
Fascinating. Im close to your age so I can relate to much of your story. I also got an Andy Williams album for Xmas as a Kid and played it to death. I also did the morning face in the old stereo rocking Dave Clark 5 lol . OMG I also had the little recorder machine and taped tunes endlessly. I too feel an intense love for music.... Still do. My folks from The South so I too worshipped Glen Campbell. Wichitaw Lineman still gives me chills to this day. Played that album to death as well. Saw him front row and I was in heaven. You are amazing! Thanks for the joy you share, you are a divine talent. Gee so much fun listening to you. Stay well~
I took clarinet in high school and l was in senior band in grade 9. I spent all my free time practising, took piano as well. But l mostly liked to play by ear and from 5 years of age l absolutely loved music. It is so interesting to hear your story Larry, because l think when you discover that you have a gift and the sky is the limit, it is the most beautiful journey to take in your whole life! You are so gifted, and l love your voice, your playing, all very well done! Thank you again, Larry.
Hey Larry ! I'm from Brazil and it's been so nice hearing a little bit about your life ! I love your work ! Thanks for sharing your talent you're an awesome musician and a great human being as well!
Recently subscribed to you and stumbled upon this video. Really enjoyed it and really enjoy your covers. It's nice to know some background of the people I've subscribed to, takes guts to put yourself out there like that but how else will people get to know the man behind the music. Keep up the music!
