Elvis, Michael, Luther impersonating has become a science. This dude is incredible.
This is the best I've heard since Luther left us.
I would normally be mad at someone trying to impersonate Luther but I must say this guy did a great job and I would like to thank him for the memories of Luther!!!
I don't care if he sounds like Luthefmr or not! HE SANG THE HELL OUT OF THAT SONG !!❤
❤❤😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He did a damn good job with his tribute / impersonation of Luther and That's why it's a tribute. I say kudos to the man keeping his spirit alive. Keep up the good work.
😢 just beautiful sounds like Luther

So beautiful.
Amazing! He even resembles Big Luther! I’d love to see this in person
It’s 2023 and I say he did an Awesome job!
If they ever do a Luther movie they need to call this guy. 😮!
The band was superb! Let’s give them an A plus, for hitting all the right rhythm , and tempo to make it seamless...💎💎💎
It was the best concert we’d ever been to
One thing for sure Luther definitely left a legacy
He is Amazing. PERIOD
Great band great voices , for a minute I thought I was seeing Luther, love his voice. 2021
Love it!
This is a wonderful tribute to Luther. He killed it. The band did a great job as well. His likeness of Luther is on point as well which made the tribute that more enjoyable. Loved this!!!!!
Hey this dude is fantastic, sing to me anytime.😂
Thank you for letting me reach out in heaven❤
All I can say is WOW!!!
He sounds really great!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💥💥💥💥💥
The band is great also👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💥💥💥💥
It takes time, talent and courage to attempt covering this Luther Vandross version of this song. When the great artist Ernie Barnes died, young artists didn't stop painting. I believe Luther's soul is happy and humming right along with this young man...in appreciation and gratitude for keeping his legacy alive and well. I totally enjoyed it...Bravo!!!
@Ron Scales I soo agree! It's great to see one of the greatest artists of all time being honored. This gentleman is as good as it gets!
Luther had an unique tone, so people are bias towards this classic renditions of "A House Is Not A Home"!
Holding notes and breathing life into each word was Luther's gifts!
He killed it!!!!!😊
Did very good. I wish people could just give the man his props. He's not Luther. All the people critiquing him. Why don't you post something that you try to sing!!!!!
Agreed!
We sure enjoyed him!
He's definitely not Luther Vandross, just another wannabe nigga
YOU MADE LUTHER VERY PROUD.
Very well said! He was AMAZING!!! 🥳🎉🥰
That is because Luther was soooooo Great. But this performance just proved how much he was loved and appreciated. Kudos to the brother for keeping Luther alive 😉
OUTSTANDING He sounds exactly like Luther the man has it continue on brother every note sounds perfect 👌
not exactly. not even close.. good voice and range but not close to the real thing
If you think he sounds like Luther you need to have your ears checked severely they're not even in the same room together it's amazing how people like you just get caught up in imagery
He is sharp and look like Luther and sound like him 🙌🙌🙌. Praying that the world goes back to normal so that we can go to live concerts again. We never know what we're missing until we don't have it anymore. Those musicians are fire too.
Absolute best saxophonist I’ve seen, too.
He did an excellent job on such a long and complicated riffs and runs. Thank you for the good memories of a true gift-Luther.
This Brother is straight BUTTER!
Listen I thought this was a Luther throw back concert. Oh my goodness y’all this isn’t Luther! Wow wow I can’t believe it. I thought this was big Luther. The band is great great . Beautiful beautiful. RlP Luther.💐🗣️
I've been singing since 1969 so I recognize good singers when I hear them and I see them. One of these days I'm going to put a show together but the bunch of talented singers and it will be awesome.
I’m a Luther fans from Luthers beginning. This man did a fantastic job. But baby Luther had just something that this performance didn’t have. I saw every Luther concert when ever he came any where in California are any near by states I and my husband were there. No disrespect but no one can capture that magic Luther shared night after night with his Audience. RIP MY FRIEND. YOU ARE GREATLY MISS EVEN IN 2021. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree totally ❤❤❤❤
I hear you everytime LV was in Chicago I was there. No one can replace LV. But this brother did his way. Which was damn good. And I would go see him.
I enjoyed the performanc, he has an amazing voice and band was outstanding.
Phenomenal!! Luther would've been Proud of him!
He has a phenomenal voice and did an #Amazing Job🎉❤🎉❤😮
I am happy 😊 he sounds exactly like Luther Vandross & that is what matters, not his looks. ❤❤❤Luther Vandross is officially back & I am happy.
I'm here to tell you that Luther Vandross would be very proud of this man, because he song this song amazing and i felt every word that he was singing just like i did when Luther himself sung his song
SAME- Chills!!
He will always have and be a legend in my heart. May he RIP.
You can be a great singer and still not come close to Luther. Luther was one of a kind !
he was one of a kind indeed,
Yes Luther was one of a kind but dude did that song
We’re all one of a kind
He Killed it! Applause Applause ❤
The first time I heard this song, it was about 3AM, and I pulled the car over to give it my undivided attention. When it was over, I wondered if I really heard it right, could hardly believe it. Now this man has attempted to recreate the best performance I’ve ever heard, and does a great job of it. I’m aware that he spent years studying Luther, and now this is his music, and his performance, and I hope I hear that he is coming to a venue in SoCal, because I would like to hear him. Excellence!
Great job because Luther is a hard act to follow dude has a nice voice
He's not and Never can replace the Greatest But... This gentleman has it, and is Awsome as A cover artist. Cudos and keep up the good work.
Well noted my brother!
He is awesome,we know he is not Luther but he was awesome!
That was fantastic!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽and also give it up for that band!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow
You killed it...a little something called dna that separates us all...as far as that goes I think this is as close as it gets... Amazing job I really enjoyed this performance
Best rendition I've heard. Great job. I would go to this show....
He’s blessed to have an voice like Luther I hate when folks says there will never be an Luther we all know this he knows it be grateful that he’s sharing his God Given Gift with the World.
He did an Magnificent Job!!! Ace’d on the Looks and Voice … His Band Was Magnificent as Well.
I believe that he's gonna make it, as a singer...
I’m just seeing this guy I’ve been a musician all of my life. And I was so impressed With what I saw and heard from. I would book him at anytime to perform.
I always marvel at artist that can give performances soooo close to the originating artist absolutely beautiful....
He has a tremble in his singing voice that Luther didn’t have. His speaking voice sounds more like Luther. I would go to his concert.
Just so you'll know sweetheart, the "tremble" in his voice is called vibrato. He executed it well and did a nice job...keeping Luther's memory alive for sure.
I really like this man singing he restores something in me about Luther vandross that is so pleasant to hear this man saying thank you so much I love Luther vandross thank you thank you
He's Great!!!!!!! Sang!!!!
I still miss Luther Vandross💖💖💖💖
AMAZING, holly sh**** this singer and this band my God.............. they're superb
Yes he sang that song plus the band did an awesome job
Simply beautiful! Sounded great!!!❤💯
He sang that song so well and compliments to the band as well...
Very easy to see and hear the love for Luther right there. Props going out to all involved to make this happen! "Never too much, never too much". Amen Brothers and Sisters.
The man's got soul.... He did a great jib👌👌👌👌
Love it love love it, gave me chills
Thank You so much…. Wonderful.
Exquisite tribute to Luther, done with great love. I hope this gentleman and his band are healthy and getting back out there after this shutdown hurt live performance so badly.
He was phenomenal on the Soul Train Cruise! Alot of people were skeptical until he came out on stage, what a major surprise!
It was mentioned that they were just coming from the soul train cruise when the band was introduce that evening. I would’ve loved to of been on that cruise!
GREAT JOB111 LUTHER WOULD BE PROUD.
This very talented man looks more like the heavy set singer from the original lineup of the incomparible Dells!! He is so good with the mannerisms of Luther.
Mannerisms stage presence are spot on ! Voice, nice
He not Luther there was only one👏however he has a beautiful voice
🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤Keep this Revue Up..Honoring our Hero's⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐So what if He/She misses a note or two...This Brother is close as you can get and even in the End of it All even the Original's can't Hit the Notes or do the Steps they once did!!!Keep this Up🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Wow....didn't even kno this was on YT.
I was there that night. My mother, who is a certified Luther fanatic dragged me to see the show. Really didn't want to see somebody try to duplicate what can't be duplicated. BUT I was pleasantly surprised by the band and by the vocalist. This audio doesn't do him justice. HE SOUNDED GREAT!
Now of course he's not Luther. No one will ever be or come close to. BUT I was thoroughly entertained and I'm very stingy with my praise. You can not be Luther and still be damn good. He he was!
Beautiful. Thank you so much for keeping Luther alive.
Bravo !!.Bravo. !! 🎉
Wow 🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I’ll take it !!!
Kudos to you Sir!! Awesome singing!
I had tickets for this but could not make it. I've never been so disappointed in my life as Luther is my all time favorite R&B soul singer. Two years later i booked again but again, something happened which prevented me from going. So sad again. I see that Ruben will be playing near me. Going this time!
I think he's awesome as can be. Sang it son. SANG THAT SONG!!
I need this in my life!!
Girl, lawd have mercy ME TOO.
I got you I’ll sing in to you all night while holding u in your ear lol
Check out Wendell B, he sounds better to me🤔
@@kennyd1836nah. Wendell is just ok. Ron Gutierrez sounds a lot better
@@kikataye6293 He sounds good but not even close.
Great performance Smooth!
I love this guy's voice!
Beautiful Gift 💐💐💐

Oh my gawd! Love it.

I really enjoyed this. Because we all miss Luther so much. Thank you so much for giving him back to us.

Superb! I get the Chills when I hear you sing, and the band is just the Best. Do more of this Please.
I loved Luthers sparkly jacket

This is my favorite song in the whole world and haven't changed
This guy really plays up luther good
Great! So great!
Sounds great 👍
Saw this man in Bethesda, MD, he was excellent.
Same!!! - And I just saw they are in Pittsburgh next month- Got our tickest!!!
This man can sing
Top notch
You Gotta Be On Your A GAME! MESSING WITH THE LEAGUES BEST!!! POUND FOR POUND BEST MALE VOCALIST IN MUSIC HISTORY!!! PERFECTION COUNTS, FROM THE SOUL COUNTS!!! WORDING COUNTS! HOLDING THOSE NOTES, HAVING THAT WIND AND STAMINA AND GOOD BREATHING,MAKING THOSE WORDS COME TRUE...FROM HEART!!.. "NOTHING ARTIFICAL" THATS WHY HE'S LUTHER VANDROSS☆
🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
He sounds pretty good on a scale of 1 to 10, I give this man a 9, why because there is another man that sounds 100% like Luther, Search for Luther Vandross soundalike, He has on a gold Sweater now I wanna apologize for the comparison, why? Because we as Black People can’t never give someone their props why I think because of jealousy, I can sing myself but I don’t sound nothing like Luther, this man sounds good real good no matter what you think, If you missed out on a Luther concert you might want to attend his!!! He would be great for the movie Luther Vandross
@Edward Owens BINGO! for the win..you are 110% on the money this guy nor Danny Clay can come close to the guy in the gold sweater..his range..tone quality is 🔥🔥👍💯😎
Excellent!
THAT KEYBOARD PLAYER OMGAWD!!!!!!"SMOOTH"🥰🥰🤗🤗
Wow he can hit all of Luther’s notes!
LUTHER IS BACK FROM HEAVEN 🙏🙏🙏
That is how we felt, too ❤️
I felt that, he did Luther proud 👏
Well I'd be damn?! If I didn't see the person, I would not have thought differently. This Dude looks like, dresses like, walks like, speaks like, and unequivocally possess an extremely close vocal skills of the Maestro Luther Vandross. Luther has to be proudly smiling in his grave. RIP! 🙏
Awesome!
