A lot of that funky finger technique he's doing about 53 secs in was done by (possibly pioneered by?) Francis Rocco Prestia of Tower of Power. http://youtube.com/watch?v=N_5txk-Y9EM

The original has FUNK & SOUL, whereas Claypool's version was more like a mechanical version of FUNK.
Simply putting the right notes in the right place, can fall flat if you don't FEEL it.
My 2 cents. |

Side note: Yeah, the original has more funk, but mainly, it was the fact that claypool was doing it is why it was "overwhelming" it wasn't something I had come to expect from him, though there is more funk in the original, I like the tone Les is getting more, but thats just me!

primus opened for Rush back in the nineties, that would have been an interesting show.
