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

That guitar sounds unbelievable

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!

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!

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

PLEASE get this on SPOTIFY ASAP!!!!!

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

This cover needs to be on all the streaming platforms

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

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

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. 👏

God damn, as an AIC and Larry Fleet fan, that hit right on the heart...

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.

I’m a music purist and this is the first cover of this song that hasn’t made me cringe. Finally someone did this song some solid justice and I’m not typically a country style fan. Well done

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

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.

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.

I’m very critical about this song it hit home hard well done my brother

I've never heard of Larry Fleet, but I've been an AIC fan since 95. This is my favorite AIC song and one of my favorite songs in general. This really does it justice

By far the best cover of one of the most iconic songs ever.

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.

We chase misprinted lies We face the path of time And yet I fight, yet I fight This battle all alone No one to cry to No place to call home My gift of self is raped My privacy is raked And yet I find, yet I find Repeating in my head If I can’t be my own I feel better dead

Beautiful!! Layne would be very proud !!

Thank you, Larry On behalf of all AIC fans ❤

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

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 😮

How is this not viral? This is incredible.

Dude you could sing a soap commercial and it would go straight to # 1 !! Love it ♥️ !

Chills! I think Layne would have been proud of your cover. The emotion is there as it was in the original song. Congratulations 👏👏👏💯❤️

La canzone più bella del mondo 🌍 Rip Layne

This needs to be released!!! @larryfleet

While this was a great performance, this song and the entire unplugged album are sacred to us GenX and feel it should never be covered.

What just happened here. I am gobsmacked. AIC is one of my favorite bands. Mr. Fleet, you absolutely slayed that song. Beautifully done. New fan!!!

I’m a huge fan of Alice In Chains and I’m not a country fan but this cover is amazing!!! ❤

Excellently covered, and made it his own. Love it!

This song hits me deep in the soul. This is probably one of my favorite covers I've ever heard. 💜

WOW...as a life long Alice In Chains fan you nailed it! This is the first time finding your channel. Totally hit that subscribe button! This wasn't sung from your heart, it came from your soul.

The BEST AIC song!! Thank you so much for putting this out!!! RIP Layne!!!

Layne Staley will always have a voice that moves you and will always be a goat!

Absolutely amazing. The version done by Dallas Green (City and Colour) is another fantastic one.

This song brings me back to my childhood. This song reminds me of all my great friend's who have passed on.

I grew up listening to Alice In Chains and to this day they are my favorite band, no one is better vocaly then Lane Staley, period 👌 But what you did right here Sir, it is absolutely amazing!!! Beautiful!!!

This is the greatest cover of any musician covering any song ever. Well done mate. Well fucking done.

Incredible 😢

This is a whole different take on a classic song. Great job Larry!! 👌

I like Larry. This was an incredible cover.

i just got the full chills neck hair standing when he started humming the chorus he do amazing on the rest i thought another really good nutshell cover then he done the humming and it might be one of the best ive heard since layne

I've heard MANY versions of this song. This guy does an excellent version of it. Good job brother.

No bad way to sing this tune. Its great no mater who. Thanks

You ever find a GREAT cover and play it 7 times back to back to back.......you KILLED this Brother!

Great interpretation of AIC’s masterpiece. 👏🏽

Many have attempted to cover this deep, amazing, relatable, classic AIC tune and ALL have failed..... You sir did your thing and killed it! Layne and all of AIC should be proud of their song making this much noise in Country Music! Hats off to Larry Fleet! Imma fan! NC!

Don't know who this guy is, but I love this song so much - so happy to hear someone covering it

I can almost feel the strings vibrating on my arms, absolutely fantastic

I dont comment on youtube, but holy shit, my brother. Truely impressive my. And no better song to showcase those pipes. You killed the guitar. I really enjoy how you are able to replicate that bass line. Iconic cover. 10/10

Fantastic cover, wish more country artists would take these risks. Plenty of 90s bands to choose from, a pool of true emotions...bridge the gap

So many covers get it wrong and I get it because the original is literally untouchable but I gotta say I really appreciate this take. It has the honesty of the original and that's what's usually missing

OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! One of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you for recreating this classic and keeping Lane Staley and Alice In Chains' music alive!!!

One of, if not the best cover I’ve ever heard of this song

I almost never comment here on youtube, but this deserves my most sincere applauses. You did it like no other could do better... only Layne.

@Larry Fleet, PLEASE release this 🙏. AMAZING rendition of an amazing song!!

Miss you, Layne. Thank you for saving my life.

Saw Larry Fleet at a bar in Nashville little over 2 years ago. For the life of me can't remember the band he was with. Some band that had bearded lead singer who played fiddle. Larry was identified as a special guest, was a great band, great night. He was good then and looks like he's trending up.

Beautiful cover by Larry Fleet. Probably the best cover of Nutshell that I’ve ever heard.

Bro. YOU NAILED THIS!!!!! I’m beyond impressed

Layne, Cobain & Cantrell were by far the most gifted musicians of the 90s. I was very, very young when these songs were recorded, but I remember hearing them growing up and there are no other songs that have more meaning than what these guys wrote

Absolutely love Alice in chains, and Layne did a phenomenal job on this song, but this guy here, dammnnnnnnnn!

This ol boy has some pipes on him...dope ass cover

This song got me through drug addiction after the fact. Years later my ears have moved to country music. This brings me to so many places. I feel this now more than I did the original did then.

WOW ……..gave me huge goosebumps 🙏🏻 best cover I’ve heard and trust me I’ve heard a lot , 52 year old huge Lane Staley fan 🤘🏼

God works through this man. No other cover has come close. There’s a reason.

Goosebumps!!!! Good job Larry

My oh my i know this song quiet well. I listen to it almost everyday. This is like my life. I give the up most respect to this song written and the ones that sing it. Its an amazing song!

Well done, Larry 👏

I got one thing to say my man Larry just killed this 🎵🎵🎵 if this ain't badass then y'all don't know what good 🎼🎶🇺🇸 music is keep doing your thang ❤ 🤘 skin I'm going to keep listening

Born in 78’. Grew up on Dirt & Jar of Flies/Sap. Awesome Job!

This is incredible. Deserves all the views. What's wrong with this world.

My man played the hell out of this song. Somewhere Layne is smiling seeing that his music made such a huge impact on people and that it still lives on.

This is my all time favorite Alice in Chains song. That said, you did it justice with this cover. Cheers to you, Sir!

Mad props to Larry Fleet for doing this song some justice. His version is great.

Rip Layne Staley. We love and miss you always Layne.

😢 To be played at my funeral. Preferably by Alice In Chains but this is good for the folks who have never heard or don’t like the original version.

Excellent rendition

Alice In Chains is the best band to ever exist. RIP LS and MS

Larry did the damn thing with his cover.

You nailed it. I would have never thought id hear a cover of that song come so close to perfection. This is on my playlist for sure. Glad it was in my recommended.

Wayne Staley just smiled.. 🔥

I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.

Beautiful my brother ❤️

Ummm excuse me!? This is Aaaamazing!

My sister listened to this song before she was put into a mental hospital after having a psychotic break and almost killing herself and her daughter. Whenever I listen to this song I wonder how much pain she could’ve been in to harm her own daughter. It’s broken up so much of the family and nothing will ever be the same. I can never see her the same again. I grew up with her and she always had my back. She took my punishments when I got in trouble and always let me come to her when I was down. Now I’ll never be able to see her at home again.

Great cover! Layne’s voice is a hard one to match with. You definitely did it justice

What an amazing voice! I love how modern country is finally spreading out into more complicated lyric ideas and darker vibes. There has to be so much more than pop anything. You got a new fan Larry with this cover.

One of if not the best pure cover of any song hands down. The older I get the harder this song hits.

WOW my man is insane! Everything he sings is amazing!

My all time favourite song and have heard many of covers!but this is by far the best yet in my opinion!the guitar tuning etc magic

Best cover of AIC I have ever ever EVER heard. Thanks for making my day

As a long time Alice in chain fan. I thought this was heartfelt when Lane done it on unplugged. But this is a twist leave it to a such talented person to pull this off. Thanks Larry

Great version! This song hits home in every style it is preformed.

No one to cry to, no place to call home… this is me
