Cool slap songs

Run for cover and hair (and of course forget me nots) are essential tunes to prove you are a true Slapsman.
nothing is worse than a guitar player wearing new balances "slappin” in a music store. But NOTHING is better than a true slapsman commanding a samurai’s thumb.

Robert Trujillo in a funk metal band slapping like crazy. Glad I saw the grooves live in the 90s. That intro is so tasty.

Anything from the 70s Disco-Funk/80s Boogie Funk is where you’ll hear a lot of SLAP Bass sounds
Steel strings also helps achieve that slap tone IME. Try DR Lo-Riders

I don't slap much, because I'm just not very good at it. One of the few things I can do is something I forced myself to learn about 35 years ago after I heard this song on the radio a bunch of times. (I was a Marcus Miller fan for about 30 years before I knew who he was.)
