@@ryanbutler74 That is a custom build done by a local luthier, that one is the prototype for a new model that he builds. I picked all the options, wood, finish, electronics, 32" scale, inlays, etc. Wonderful bass, lucky to have it! Thanks!
@@rrefalo very cool! I play a Yamaha BEX-BS that looks very similar and the Waterstone TP-4 & TP-12. Can’t beat a good semi-hollow. I’m always stoked to see what you’re playing in the vids.
I am in awe here. Three 12 strings playing on one song? Marvelous vocal harmonies. Man, it sounds like 10 guitars playing and a whole choir on the chorus. Wow.
When they did their recent interview videos about the history of the band, I asked whether there was anyone they would like to do but haven't because they didn't think they could pull it off -- whichever band member responded gave me a list of some artists in that category, some not surprising and some surprising to me. That's musical integrity when you could probably get a lot of views by covering a famous artist but choose not to because you don't think you could do it justice.
I've listened to every LLB song ever posted. The instrumental tracks (drums up through the guitars) are always super solid (understatement). This song demonstrates amazing vocals. Vocal tonality / timbre is very hard to replicate. The interplay of the lead vocal and the supporting male vocal is just great. Then, the female vocals are just perfect. My understanding is that this is done across minimal takes. I get that there is prep etc but just want to confirm how really really good this is. And, btw, Extreme is not really my thing. But, LLB surely is. 🙂
Something I admire about LLB is their choice of vocalist. They almost always match the vocal style of the original with their own signature. It's the A+ factor for me.
Man-O-Man!!!!! The Growing Ensemble-Cast of LLB's Musicians & Vocalists is Spectacular!!!!! I LOVE the way participants vary & specialize-so-Well, from song-to-song!! How Impressive!!! ....AND we can't overlook the great camera work as well!! Thank You
Happy to hear that you kept it real throughout. You didn't, "Make it your own". Like I say, if you want to make it your own then sing your own songs. Solid performance by everyone.
I think of them as re-creators, not covers. Cover bands generally are stuck on one group or genre. Sometimes they have one guy in the band that sounds a little like Stevie Ray Vaughan or shreds like Eddie Van Halen. The range of music that LLB creates is astounding. Arrangement and talent are matched to bring out the best of the music.
Wow! The best cover of whole hearted I’ve ever listened to. I wish I could be there singing along with you! Great job guys, super kudos to you all! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Such an awesome rendition of this Extreme tune !!! The playing and vocals are absolutely fabulous !!! Just another great job by an immensely gifted and talented group of musicians putting out wonderful music time and again.... Bravo everyone !!! ♥️🎶👏👏👏
HA!!! I had NO idea how tasty the bass line is until I watched the run @2:18 and then I had to re-listen to the whole song... and hot damn!! The vocals are so tight. Great job!!!
I am never disappointed when an LLB notification arrives! Wow, I think your harmonies in this were better than Extreme's original! The 12-strings sounded absolutely amazing! Perfect choices for every musician and crew involved in this one, LLB. Don't change a thing! Congratulations 👏 👏 👏
Ab. So. Lutely. INCREDIBLE!!! This one's a keeper for you guys! Just.... WOW! The guitars, bass, and vocals are absolutely perfection. You all put the perfect amount of emotion and soul into it. PLAY THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN! You guys are damn good at it!
Amazing!! That was my favorite song for so many years. Thank you for the memories of the time and who I had spent the time with all those years ago. Keep pushing on!!
Love the sound of a 12-string. Such great musicianship here and amazing lead vocals. LLB is amazing…I can’t get enough of the videos an always look forward to the new released videos.
I believe this might be the best cover you folks have done yet. It's a fantastic song (extreme was horribly overlooked by so many) these vocals are so so good. (as is the music). just wow
I used to listen to this song all the time as this CD was the one that spent the most time in my car's radio back in the late 90's while i'd commute to and from work. And as such every beat, word, harmony, etc. is carved into my memory. And wow this is such a faithful cover that it took me right back there. Another masterfully done job by the LLB!
I loved this song during its heyday Summer '91. Amazing acoustic sound & harmonizing. You guys gave me chills all over, absolutely AMAZING performance. The only thing missing was the long hair on the guys LoL. Thank you for giving this song new Life. It's currently at the top of my Play List.. As good as the original in every way .. Repeat 🔁 Repeat!
I remember back in the day I had a 45 RPM with this song, I heard it on the radio and my mouth dropped. Like, what is that ? THe harmonies on the original have been flawlessly recreated with this. I am totally in awe of this. Now it won't be that hard to recreate "More than Words" to round out pretty much ALL of the Extreme hits ever. And that 45 had "More than Words" on the back side. I love this! I am going to have to share this with everyone.
Amazing cover. My old band and I used to go around the city and play this song during jam nights at different bars. The early 90's were so fun. Awesome video and thanks for bringing back some great memories.

What is that red semi-hollow bass?

🤠👍 This song turned out really good LLB
Those guitars sound MASSIVE !!!
Those guys are excellent vocalists.

Damn! I’m convinced there isn’t a band or song on this planet that LLB can’t replicate to perfection. Awesome!
These folks are the bomb, that's for sure.
Agreed.
Still waiting they covering UFO
Right!

OK I've Never seen this done with Not One , Not Two, BUT Three 12 String Guitars!!!! BRAVO!! STANDING OVATION!!! Fricken Amazing!!!!
Sweet Jesus...this is so good ! Showcase the beauty of male voices...just WOW !
The wonder and magic of three 12-string acoustics, combined with those vocals. What a sound. Great, great job!
3 12-string guitars, plus Jessica on backing vocals? What more could anyone ask for! Once again a beautiful job, LLB!

Oh my that was goodness!
Excellent!!!!
This song is a master piece of the twelve strings. The atmosphere and Nuno’s arrangement were unique
Probably one of the most wholesome and entertaining versions I've ever heard. Hats off to you, LLB.
@@XregionalX HUSH! Lest thee offend the gods! 🤫
Something I admire about LLB is their choice of vocalist. They almost always match the vocal style of the original with their own signature. It's the A+ factor for me.
Loved this so much I played it 5 times in a row....
There’s no better sound than a chorus of twelve strings accompanying a chorus of great voices! Randy kills it on bass too. Great job folks. 👍
@JJ Oliver, The last time I’ve seen this many 12 strings in one place was at a bluegrass festival.
Awesome as Usual!!!
One of if not thee best covers of a song I've ever heard!!!
Rad!!!
Extremely good!
good God the 12 strings and harmonies... no weak spots... and superb vocals .. everyone .. thanks you
Just when I think I can't be surprised by their talent, I see this one. My new favorite.
OMG that was amazing. Closing my eyes, I could see the LLB gang singing around a fire pit after a barbeque.
Oh. Come. On. I can't handle all the awesomeness that y'all have posted this past week.
Man-O-Man!!!!! The Growing Ensemble-Cast of LLB's Musicians & Vocalists is Spectacular!!!!!
I LOVE the way participants vary & specialize-so-Well, from song-to-song!! How Impressive!!!
....AND we can't overlook the great camera work as well!! Thank You
DAMN!!!! Uncanny rendition! WOW!!!
There is absolutely nothing you guys can't do!!! And make it sound perfect!!! You guys are REALLY TIGHT!!!
OMGOODNESS.....the music you all make is masterful. Pure joy listening to such beautifully harnessed and orchestrated talent.
This hole in my heart can only be filled by the LLB!!!
Southeast Michigan says hell yes !!
WOW WOW WOW WOW! That was awesome! Guitars, harmonies, everything!
Incredible guitars, vocals, percussion. Everything is perfection. Bravo to you.
Happy to hear that you kept it real throughout. You didn't, "Make it your own". Like I say, if you want to make it your own then sing your own songs. Solid performance by everyone.
To the Moon and back......AWESOME !!!
The level of perfection you guys attain is just breath taking. I have never heard a cover band better than LLB.
