the one handed bassist your talking about is Bill Clements and there are a few vids of him on www.bassplayer.tv very interesting style especially when he is doing the 16th notes.

With all due respect, Larry Graham wrote the book on slapping and singing at the same time!

I liked the video, but I didn't care for the singing.

That would be 10 years before Level 42, not the same time.

. . . for those who always complain that most slapping isn't melodic. . . well, here you go.

Very nice.

I wonder what kind of bass he is using? Sounds pretty good.
