An incredible rendition of a beautiful song, sang in your own inimitable way and nailed completely. I really enjoyed it. Thanks Larry, you are a star and may you continue to burn brightly.
Oh my god... not only excellent guitar, but how the heck did someone manage to improve on David's perfect song?! Humble too. I love all of Larry's covers.
Your music has always touched and soothed my heart. I will always remember you with such gratitude. Your music will live forever. RIP Dear Larry.. I miss you.
Beautiful!! You did an amazing job on an amazing song. I loved this song so much when l heard it in 1973 that when l had my first daughter in 1991 l named her Aubrey. I had never heard of the name anywhere except in this song. Thanks for doing this one LL.
Larry....Of all the music I love, David Gates and Bread are so loved by me...This is one of the most incredible songs....Great set of lyrics and name.....I have to be honest when i say that i never find anyone who can cover this music...But that all changed when i found you.....This is one of the warmest moments my ears have ever had....I come back to this often..Sung with your genuine sweet voice...Thank you for making my time here so well spent...ione marie
Man I could listen to this all day. I wish I could have a voice like yours when I'm about your age in here. So I could serenade my wife always to make her smile and happy ❤️
Larry L, you are talented dude. This song is timeless and I am glad you covered it. I have a deep respect for musicians who love what they do, and I can tell you love these covers. Nice work and please keep it up!
This is my son's favorite song and the way we discovered Larry L. My son (age9) is obsessed with Larry and all his music videos. Welcome to our home and family Larry!
Oh so beautiful Larry! You make feel young again! I wish I could go back in time and be 15 again singing this song along with record playing on my stereo! Happy times! Thanks for bringing it back so eloquently! Love you!!!
Larry.....Aubrey is a beautiful name......This is a sweet song.....And this singing voice of yours that i am hearing right now is thee warmest sound i could ever wish to hear....Any melody you sing is lovely and the finest sound to these ears....What you bring to music is hard to put in words......Just know that you are appreciated and loved by so many.....ione marie
Larry...You will always be the Musicman to me...And I do like all of Bread's music(especially David Gates songs)..The warmth and comfort of his music is something that you capture and give to everyone...I dont care to find anyone who could cover it like you do..That would be an endless venture anyway...David Gates music is how i found you and your music....That alone is a Priceless gift....ione marie
As with all of your previous Bread covers, this one is simply outstanding. You have a beautiful voice, Larry, and it is perfect for this song. Those high notes of yours send chills up my spine. This is such a melodic cover. --Carol
Hi Larry I loved your very honest care with this magic song that I bet changes some lives in the world like mine here in Brazil, thanks so much and please still posting this jewels!!!!
Larry L......you are amazing with this beautiful and lyric song....1972 was a poppy love moments in many school couples.....when Aubrey opened the best love feeling with something spiritual heart experience.....God bless you dear artist....
Larry.After your's, i pretty much Love David Gates and Bread's music..And the song title is such a beautiful name.But, i have to be honest, being that it is a Bread song, and one of my favorite's, but that is not why i come back here again and again..You ARE the reason.The sound of your voice doing this sweet song and the way you play guitars:)...When it comes to your videos, there aren't enough hours in any day to tell you just how special your music is..GOD bless you, sweet friend..ione marie
This is simply beautiful, Larry. The way you musically modulate the tragic-romantic, self-alienated, contrapuntal essence (hell, most people don't know what "romantic" means at all in the Platonic sense) of the likes of David Gates' "Aubrey" and Don McLean's "If" (your other video). Perfect play with genuine, quivering, naked understanding - of all the broken wings and cold fractals in the world, of a short-lived romantic soul almost too beautiful to live. I am a great fan of your work and your soul - and your very guitar. Can't ask for more! Thanks for simply being there in the musical universe, lending all your soul to such a lonesome, beautiful, strange, singular song. On a minor note, I was named after this song by my dad.
Great cover!! Everyone needs to realize that every song you do is your interpretation of the original. I thoroughly enjoy all of your songs. You look like your having a great time performing and I get the sense of your heart in your performances. Even love your patio performances. Miss your lessons though. Loved your Glen Cambell lesson. Keep it up, from one singer to another your doing an awesome job.
Lots of folks don't realize that even an artist may not cover his own song and sound as good as the recording studio version. Not only that, but no one can perfectly duplicate even themselves. Every time you pick up a guitar or sing or do anything, it's a different version of what you're emulating or performing. Occasionally, a live version comes off really great and many persons will like it better.
Larry this is one of finest, most moving videos you have posted. It's so beautifully done. It moves me every time!!!!!! You are the best!!! Thnak you. Tom.
Larry.....I love Bread's music and this song also....It's such a warm soft piece....And you covering it?...Well, you add so much to the sound and the feel of the song...Just like the song title is, you are so genuine, my friend..ione marie..
Awesome Awesome Awesome. It's funny, I heard this song in passing on a player piano today. All I heard was that sweet little melodic turn for the lyric "and Aubrey was her name", and I was hooked. I quickly snapped a pic of the title, which was just "Aubrey", and it led me here! Your cover of it touched me musically/emotionally. Thank you!
Excelent cover, and the way you play the guitar is amasing.....I learned something new , how to play it as well as you, David Gates in one of my favourites singers ever, very good job sir....enhorabuena!
Larry~Have always loved this song and always will~And, I have the pleasure of now forever looking forward to your version~You make this song even warmer than it's ever been~I am ALWAYS glad when I come back here for your version~~ione marie
Humble attempt my rear! You knocked that one out of the park, and you deserve all the praise you get. As always, great job. It's funny how a song with such a simple melody can hit you between the eyes like a 2X4 emotionally.
Man, you're the best! Every time I want to learn a song, I check first if you've covered it. And if so, I learn it from you. You're a blessing to us all. Thanks.
This is the best i have felt in a long time.You did a great job,wouldn't change a thing.Too bad our young missed out on all the real talent from years past.excellent job sir ,thank you
You did it!!! You did it!!! i'm so glad I found it! This song has a VERY real meaning for me....and your performance touched me the core, bringing forth tears of sadness & joy. You da Man!!!
Larry~This is one of my favorite Bread songs~I mean, i don't see how anyone couldn't Love David Gates and all of Bread's music~You capture just the perfect feel of this song~What i hear is the sweet, soft, soothing sound of the one that takes an incredible song and makes it even better~It's not just that you have a great voice, it's what you do with it~You touch people with your music~I can't think of anything more real than that~You're Amazing!~ione marie
Wow I'm loving these David Gates/Bread covers Larry, you sure take me back to a simpler time in life when nothing seem complex when I was a kid listening to my 45's on a little $13 dollar phongraph. :-)
Larry~You took an already incredible song and made it even better with your sweet voice and fine way you play that guitar~You are something else, my friend~~ione marie
I'll remember and find forever in my heart. RIP Larry. you are the best musician. by your big fan in korea.

@kuzosama I wasn't trying to 'beat' Bread. This isn't a competition. I did it my way, respectful to the original. That's all I can do.
This is best voice ever
Larry L It is beautiful and a lovely song
