Les Claypool seems to be quite fond of it.

That slap solo was recorded on Bakithi's birthday. The producer knew this & told him just to cut loose with a quick solo lick of his choosing. Then he took the clip, cut it & reversed some of it for the second half of the clip. That's where the phased sound comes from. But you all probably knew that story anyway.

Whenever they would play it live Paul just had him do his thing, since you can't really duplicate it outside of the studio.
