What is that red semi-hollow bass?

[@rrefalo]

@@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!

[@ryanbutler74]

@@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.

[@robertcuratolo5339]

🤠👍 This song turned out really good LLB

[@gagslovedotcom]

Those guitars sound MASSIVE !!!

[@IrishJimmyPA]

Those guys are excellent vocalists.

[@bigboithe8th]

Damn! I’m convinced there isn’t a band or song on this planet that LLB can’t replicate to perfection. Awesome!

[@cousineddie7898]

These folks are the bomb, that's for sure.

[@felinemad]

Agreed.

[@MoFernandez]

Still waiting they covering UFO

[@jasonpalmer4562]

Right!

[@oldwest517]

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.

[@drummerman1964]

Sweet Jesus...this is so good ! Showcase the beauty of male voices...just WOW !

[@daveditcher4059]

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.

[@jerrybach1234]

OK I've Never seen this done with Not One , Not Two, BUT Three 12 String Guitars!!!! BRAVO!! STANDING OVATION!!! Fricken Amazing!!!!

[@resipsaloquitur854]

The wonder and magic of three 12-string acoustics, combined with those vocals. What a sound. Great, great job!

[@jrsmoots]

Oh my that was goodness!

[@oneperson7013]

Probably one of the most wholesome and entertaining versions I've ever heard. Hats off to you, LLB.

[@oneperson7013]

@@XregionalX HUSH! Lest thee offend the gods! 🤫

[@kevinrainforth851]

3 12-string guitars, plus Jessica on backing vocals? What more could anyone ask for! Once again a beautiful job, LLB!

[@mrjonnymac]

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.

[@Fsilvacanada]

This song is a master piece of the twelve strings. The atmosphere and Nuno’s arrangement were unique

[@FlightData101]

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. 👍

[@scottficklin2254]

@JJ Oliver, The last time I’ve seen this many 12 strings in one place was at a bluegrass festival.

[@MrOlderandwiser]

The level of perfection you guys attain is just breath taking. I have never heard a cover band better than LLB.

[@gmb858]

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.

[@wushock92]

OMG that was amazing. Closing my eyes, I could see the LLB gang singing around a fire pit after a barbeque.

[@petermay7533]

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. 🙂

[@bernardcarpenter6949]

I genuinely hope the guys in Extreme see this. Awesome job.

[@derekkerby8042]

Just when I think I can't be surprised by their talent, I see this one. My new favorite.

[@ksan8222]

How many out there remember this one from back in the day??? LOVE IT..."more than words"

[@nelsonward7981]

Vandy, the MIX is amazing. I'm at a loss for adjectives for how good the mix is, no less the performance is breathtaking.

[@jankendehond]

Excellent!!!!

[@kristhompson772]

One of if not thee best covers of a song I've ever heard!!!

[@primeministerofredneckistan]

Rad!!!

[@chanceoldham]

Awesome as Usual!!!

[@rterry731]

good God the 12 strings and harmonies... no weak spots... and superb vocals .. everyone .. thanks you

[@Trains-With-Shane]

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!

[@nelsonward7981]

Extremely good!

[@christopherlee5584]

DAMN!!!! Uncanny rendition! WOW!!!

[@LasVegasVocalist]

There is absolutely nothing you guys can't do!!! And make it sound perfect!!! You guys are REALLY TIGHT!!!

[@MyVideoCollection]

Loved this so much I played it 5 times in a row....

[@rwsmith7]

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 👏 👏 👏

[@lIlIANONYMOUSIlIl]

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.

[@tnoutdoors9]

Oh. Come. On. I can't handle all the awesomeness that y'all have posted this past week.

[@dvelilla]

This hole in my heart can only be filled by the LLB!!!

[@lauramchenry7377]

Love ,love ❤ A whole lot,of talent.

[@bruschmidt9943]

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!

[@arsbadmojo]

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!!!

[@averyteplitsky885]

Super-fantastique, and I'm not even French, LOL!! Extreme is so very underrated, but that's part of what makes them so great! Plus, Nuno B.'s a true six-string master and your multi-pronged guitar attack did him very proudly on this excellent cover. Well done! P.S., impeccable vocals, bass and percussion work as always. Highly impressed!!😊

[@josephsantoro375]

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 !!! ♥️🎶👏👏👏

[@ericingram7864]

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

[@EuniMatt]

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.

[@GringosRUs]

WOW WOW WOW WOW! That was awesome! Guitars, harmonies, everything!

[@rf937dave7]

Brilliant 💜❤️👌👏👏👏

[@SealedOrPorted]

Brilliant, clean as a whistle. The harmonies were superb as was the tempo and production. Fantastic performance and arrangement.

[@SealedOrPorted]

This has been rolling around in my head. Had to come back for another listen.

Magic smile machine strikes again. Thank you so very much.😊

[@CplSkiUSMC]

Boom. Just like that! That's how it's done. LLB nails it again.

[@thabilldozer]

My brother Chuck worked with Extreme on the production of this album, and the video for this song. And I've got to say that you guys did an amazing job on this one

Man, I LOVE the sounds of those guitars! 12 strings have such a luxurious sound. Well done!

[@photographerw.j.smithphoto1214]

WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@skemerson]

If you played just the audio, I swear the majority of Extreme fans would mistake this for the original. I would be among them!! Guitars and harmonies instantly transported me back to 1991. I am amazed at the endless stream of talented musicians and vocalists behind LLB's tracks. Close to 70 contributing musicians at my last count. You guys continue to raise the bar with every new track! Really love this one - pretty sure the guys from Extreme would as well!!

[@LexingtonLabBand]

Thanks for the kind review! We are up to 82 contributers now!

[@briandelvalle1833]

Unbelievable. Blown away by what is without a doubt a fantastic rendition. Indistinguishable from the already awesome Xtreme original.
