about

"Huggin' Funshine: 16 Golden Greats" is Larry Banilow's long-awaited greatest hits package. This retrospective includes all of Banilow's best-loved hit singles like "Love Waves Hello," "FunShine" and "HUG!" as well as lesser known gems like "Babylonia" and "Kiss The Girl," all digitally remastered for maximum Larry Banilow clarity and love!

"Huggin' Funshine" also unearths a couple of out-of-print tracks and outtakes.

If that weren't enough (and how could it NOT be, really?), Randy and The Captain have reunited to write and record a brand new Banilow track, the truly magical "A-E-I-LUV-U," which kicks off the album on a high that sustains to the end.

This is a wonderfully satisfying journey to the center of the psyches of Randy Bedfellow and Captain Sensitive.

A cd release, complete with extensive liner notes and rare photos, is planned, and a stage musical and a film adaptation of the story of Larry Banilow are being considered.

If you would like to help, make a donation when you download the album. Donate whatever you can and as much as you like. If you can't donate anything, we want you to still hear the album, so you can download for free if you must. In any case, please help spread the reach of Larry Banilow by sharing your favorite songs with your friends.

Find Larry Banilow on Facebook and post your Larry Banilow stories for other fans and for the band.
