[@ryanstrack]

this is how you cover a song. nutshell is a masterpiece and you did it justice.

[@Delphinad7]

Have you seen upchurches version? It’s amazing as well.

[@Ragnar-Viking]

That guitar sounds unbelievable

[@aarondoherty3596]

Looks like the PRS SE T40E, beautiful guitar

[@timclark3449]

It's an amazing tone I've been trying to replicate this sound. I think I need better gear

[@FMertz-zm1wc]

Really bright strings and picking close to the bridge.

[@tablegrapes2660]

Yeah buddy.

If this song doesn’t hit you harder as you get older, you’re listening to the music and not the words of the song. This gentleman did this great song justice!

[@soullesshavok4263]

The music is for your heart, but the lyrics are for your soul

[@jamesgreene6364]

AMAZINGLY WELL DONE RENDITION SIR I AM HUMMBALED BY YOUR WORK MY GOOD MAN

[@katiedavis8544]

It does hit harder the older I get but I think for me it’s because you can hear the pain and despair in the lyrics and realize that Layne Staley and so many other musicians lived it. He was alone and lonely when he passed and was alone and lonely for two weeks before he was even found. It’s just sad. This is an excellent cover.

[@adambeckett6348]

This comment right here, you nail it right on the head

[@D-A-1776]

One of the most emotional songs ever. This was laynes battle with addiction that ultimately killed him and he knew it was going to.

[@smokymountains5249]

Layne Staley was a tortured soul, with a voice like no other.

[@TpCustoms]

Rip legend.

[@spross216]

I like how you’re not trying to do a bad Layne Staley impression and just did this as yourself, while also trying to keep it in a similar spirit as the original. Thank you! Respect!

[@michellenaomi22]

Layne’s song, that defines him, is “Down in a hole” very specifically, unplugged! (In my opinion) but it hurts! 💔

[@Bobbyholmesclubstep]

Whats interesting is Jerry wrote down in a hole about his ex gf… almost didnt bring it to the band because it was a lot slower than the stuff they were doing at the time. Band loved it though and now everyone associates the lyrics with laynes struggles even though jerry wrote the lyrics

[@Xeyedjohn]

he may not have been trying to impersonate but gd i could hardly differentiate between the two. awesome cover.

[@cheapthrills49]

As much as I love Layne and have absolutely lived to AiC's original my entire teen/adult life .... I FEEL this dude's pain in it like Layne, unlike most other covers

[@klm4446]

Layne and AIC should be in the hall of fame. They should've won Grammy awards. We should've had a major motion picture, Layne Staley bio pic. RIP Layne, what a vocalist/soul singer/songwriter. Never forgotten. This was a respectful, quality cover. 👏

[@sergiolandz6056]

They dont need the hall of shame, they are good the way they are. That hall of washed out rockers is over rated anyways. AIC is its own thing. No one sounds like them and never will.

[@jonbedingfield1124]

Damb fine job, Larry,extraordinary guitar 🎸 pickin, may Lane Rest In rock n roll paradise...

[@matthewcarle5970]

This cover needs to be on all the streaming platforms

[@bringthedawn]

Love how he plays the chords soft, in the background, and the bass melody loud.

[@SuperCam98]

Best cover of this song hands down. Layne would be proud of this one.

[@smokymountains5249]

This is excellent, but, I think Eric Church did this song more justice.

[@craigorth1216]

​@@smokymountains5249I think you mean Ryan Upchurch. But yes. Awesome cover

For those of you who don't know, Alice In Chains did this song. Absolute GENIUS song and absolute fantastic cover.

Same bro.

[@christophermiller1369]

Arron Lewis does a decent version... Dalles green... Eric Church..but no candles held to Jerry Cantrell

[@Nesquick1121]

You know why he kills this...................................... He sings like Larry Fleet not Layne Staley and that's very hard, how powerful his voice is to this song.

[@kadeklahsen9101]

Hands down the best cover version of this song I've ever heard!

[@clevelandlawson1982]

You can tell that this is a song that Lane Staley lived and wrote from deep within his soul. The depth is hauntingly beautiful and sad at the same time.

[@adamjones9818]

it's a cover of an Alice In Chains song. He sings it with conviction and it shows.

[@C0RT1Z]

Been listening to AIC since a little boy, I’m 26 now. Been listening to Larry for a couple years. This took my heart. Tears.

[@tammychambers1261]

Since 1992. I can't even right now. I want live and die cry and laugh at the same time. Can't due though

[@caddyjoe77]

Beautiful!! Layne would be very proud !!

[@GuitarsandTrails]

Well, this is easily my favorite cover to my favorite song.

[@bigwoodlittleworld]

And the originator lives on. Awesome cover. 10 years sober. I was surrounded by people but no one understood the struggle. Pushed me to the depths but with god I fought through. Anyway reading this get up. You are the problem and the solution. The time is now to do something. You got this

Chorando.... Que lindo. Um abraço emocionado do Brasil.

[@debasmitanandy4558]

RIP Layne Staley. A voice like no other. Him along with his brilliant guitarist and co-writer Jerry Cantrell created some of the greatest pieces of music I've ever heard. And when they sang together, their harmonies made you feel how powerful good music can be. Alice in Chains and their mtv unplugged album will always have a place in my heart.

[@micahdupree5252]

rip lane staley, one of the best vocalist to EVER exist. no question about it.. great cover, enjoyed watching it

[@adamb602]

Ok who the HELL is this dude? WOW. 😮. Easily one of the best covers of nutshell by FAR. Man. This dude may just convert me to country music. Holy shit 😮

Nutshell on album Alice In Chains “Jar of Flies”. There is no need to compare. Everything Larry Fleet does is his own. Poignant lyrics expressing deep dark sorrow, isolation standing strong. Not to be taken lightly. Beautiful guitar work. Thank you for this gem in a nutshell. Absolutely perfect.
