+1 Larry is the man. All those who came after, came through the door Larry opened for them.

That being said, he also has serious funk faces in effect too

Makes me wonder if bands today even realize it's possible to be this great... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lrt2RAnOyBo

funny thing about that first video - it was *not* very old - the keyboards give it away. 10 years old at most.

| | | | A lot of people seem to slap because they can. Larry Graham seems to slap because he just can't help it. That's why I love to hear him slap, and all others not quite so much. |
