Les has a one-of-a-kind sound, nobody has ever sounded quite like him, and I doubt anyone ever will.

Les Calypool is generally regarded as a hugely talented bassist, comparable to other greats such as John Entwhistle, Voctor Witten, and, of course, Joca Pissedoverus.

Talking les claypool

A few things to say- Claypool is the amazing assist from primus, he kicks ass, and the big lebowski is the best damn movie ever. "You're out of your element, Donny!"
