Found that the other day, awesome. For some reason I didn't think to post it here though

Probably one of my favourite songs I've heard from Larry Graham and his various bands. Puts a smile on your face too

I haven't heard that in years! Iused have the vinyl lp that song was on, "My Radio Sure Sounds Good To Me." That song used to sound so hard now I could nail it pretty easily. Oh well, I still can't do that Wooten stuff, so I'm still behind the curve.

Well I am glad I could take you back. I too can't do the wooten stuff... it is cool, but if you can groove like Larry and other peepz like him, who needs all of the flashy fast slap and pop with all of those triplets?

Peace,

Anyone who can dance, sing, slap, solo and yodel all at the same time is just not human! Larry Graham is in a class by himself! Others have elevated the slap game to insane levels but no one (that I know of) can entertain like that! I so miss the old days of funk!

Well, Victa (w/the Wooten Bros.) entertains pretty well while playing! But nobody can top classic Larry Graham! Truly an innovator!

Vic can entertain, but he cannot sing worth a darn, and he cannot sing and play (that's why Anthony Wellington got his gig.) I recently got a Larry Graham boxed set, and I still think he is the slap gold standard. I mean new guys are faster, but who really wants to dance to that music?

That's the problem, I can groove, but not like Larry Graham!

+1 Now, I am the Funkfather but it takes way too much concentration to just not mess up while playing as it is! Singing, slapping (and not just a simple slap line) & doing dance steps?? That's just frikkin' insane!
