"Lookin for Love" is one of my favorite disco songs ever!

"Peaceful Journey" was always my favorite jam by Fat Larry. I was very saddened to hear of his passing.

I really don't know much about FAT LARRY, he sang and played the drums for his own band. He was from Philly. In 1979 he released LOOKIN FOR LOVE, and I played it nightly for a few months. It would pack the floor, or keep the floor. It never emptied the floor. Then I would throw it in occasionally for several more years during an OLDIE flashback. I would get screams and cheers. That gives me a very good memory about LARRY. I know he was big in PHILLY, but I never played anything else. I probably missed out. I know another LARRY that worked with him in the studios, and according to him, FAT LARRY was a great guy. He was fun to be around, and always happy. God Bless.

Dawn ! I was just listening to the "Act like you know", whan I read the passing of Larry James on this website. Just know that here in Paris France, and in the whole country, French LOVE this guy and are still listening to his great sound. May the Great Spirit take care of his soul. He still lives thru his music. Thank you for everything, Man ! RIP
