Larry is awesome, there should be a 100ft statue of just his thumb. BTW A quick question to any drummers watching. What is the drum pattern called that starts at 45 seconds in until 1 min 12? Just curious that’s all, it’s an awesome rhythmic technique whatever it is.
Man this Guy is my Hero,and he was so bless to get a session like that,,i swear that was One in a Million Jam session,,I can FEEL the Energy,,the excitement,it was like a Concert close up,,WOW. He still got it..,,Of course.,,Larry Graham
Yeah! Master class funk bassist Larry Graham. Makes most bass players look foolish. I saw a video of Earth, Wind and Fire (I think they’re ok at best) and they had that bass player attempting a solo – mind you I had just watched another video with bootsy, and I couldn’t help but think that the guy just didn’t have it. That awakened me to how far out there these guys really are – I mean Larry, Bootsy, Flea, Victor Wooten, Mark King, etc.
Cocaine is one hell of a drug.

Larry Graham. The creator of Slap Bass. Lots of you young folks out there didn’t know that.
very nice, check out also my funk guitar version!
You’ll either love this or hate this. It will melt your brain or the latter; It will melt your brain.
Larry did play with Sly. I think I heard Charles Meeks play slap bass before Larry but Charles wasn’t in a nationally known band like Larry was later.
Living legend.
i love it how even his strings are golden 😀
Thumb so long
