151 ignorant people who don't know that Larry Graham is the original creator of the Slap and Pluck bass Technique thats played all over the world. You slapbass because of this man. Godfather of slap bass!! Larry Graham USA/TEXAS BORN USA!!
+MarioinRmd To be honest I think he is the opposite of "cool". He is pure love, pure music. "Cool" is self centered and self aware. You need to be all but that. Peace :-)
Every time I see any video of this guy I have those mixed feelings: 1-What shitty bass player I am. 2-How can i be so funky? 3-I need more videos of this guy.
WOW this man makes the bass SO DARN COOL! He plays with such precision, heart and soul that you can't help but stop and listen. His licks are BEASTLY! He's amazing.
I hate when people say this shit. You do realize if he never "made it popular" Someone else would. Also usually discoveries like this are multi-discoveries. 1 person doesn't just invent it up. Usually colleagues or people around the world that had nothing to do with him were doing it too. He most likely brought it to the mainstream.
There's "slapping" and then there's Larry Graham. No one sounds or plays like Larry. No one. Period. Also, he's a great singer and *performer*. Awesome.
WOW! What can you say to this brutha? A master of bass and music. He played with Sly back in the day. The creator of the slap bass. Funkmaster!! forever I salute you.
When he says "it's kinda like a train", it's an understatement. Leaves you at a loss for words cuz he seems to have added a chapter to the meaning of the subject of music and what's possible. If I just listen to Sly songs, I'd never have understood what's actually hitting me, much less exactly the recipe of the punch. I love how he emphasizes that he wasn't trying or wanting to play bass. The name Graham should be taught along with the greats of history. His accidental (?) discovery of bass rhythm is perhaps comparable to the invention of counterpoint in classical music, and has underscored a common sound track for a couple of generations of humans across the planet.
Man I'm glad to see full video had not been able to find a copy of it thanks for posting. I learned larry's lines back in the day just by playing his bass parts with record player. Still one of my bass heroes. Got to see him live once. He came into the audience and stood my chair just jamming away. One hell of a show at the Warner Theater Washington, D.C.
The one and only Mr Larry the thump and pluck master Graham. Never get tired of watching this man play and sing. So many have said that Larry was their biggest influence
Thank You So Much for this super video Mr Larry Graham, it's so wonderful to know where and how it all come together, Thanks to the young great drummer and the crew... Love to you, you are so great and humble, Thanks to your influences your Mum and family. Much Love & Respect. A Fan
Larry Graham is my favorite Bass Player of all time. I saw him many times in the past when he played with SLY & The FAMILY STONE then he eventually went solo and formed his own band GRAHAM CENTRAL STATION. Its amazing,he's playing on bass with a drummer and it sounds so full like an entire band is with him. That's part of Larry Graham's GENIUS
Holy smokes...if this isn't one of the most badass ridiculously Fonky videos on ALL of RUclips I don't know what is!!! So so thankful I got to see Larry with GCS a bunch of times in the 90s when they used to play at the now gone unfortunately Tramps nightclub. To this day... they're still way up there as some of the best Funk shows I've ever seen. Larry hands down gets the best live bass sound I've ever seen and heard. Seeing him with Prince is also way way up there as some of the most insanely funky concerts I ever saw! This video is pure Gold!!! Thanks so much whoever posted it. This'll be on heavy rotation probably for the rest of my life 😉🎸🤗🙏💙✌️🕺👏🎶🎵🔥💯🔥✌️
He's gotta be the happiest guy alive. Now, I get it. Like, I understand what he's saying. I can see it, I can hear it, but I still have no idea how he's doing it. Insane skill.
Larry Graham, is my favorite Electric Basses. I love his simplistic styling, inflection, percussion style of playing the bass. His styles has help me excel my career playing the his funky style of slapping. Also, he play as if he is one with the bass, Oh so funky!
Larry Graham walked into a music store and found me slapping. He sat and talked and played with me, then left. He was very nice. Once the door closed the owner said "that was Larry Graham".
+rired2005 It seems now like a lot of artists of his generation were ahead of their time in part because they thought the world could be changed with the tools of artistic discovery and that gave impetus to pushing the envelope. As this was true of Graham and Hendrix it was likewise true of James Brown and many others who glimpsed a broader horizon and became explorers. The imagination was given permission to assert itself. At some deeper level following MLK's I Have A Dream speech there was an assertion of political vision for a time as well. Maybe the two were connected.
+gary morrison Well said words that you typed here, Gary. You're so right that Graham and Hendrix changed the style of music forever. Also, Motown in-studio session musician, James Jamerson of The Funk Brothers changed bass forever and influenced a lot of people.
+gary morrison You're reading too much into it. They were just musicians doing what musicians like to do and having fun. Along the way, they invented and/or stumbled upon new ways to play their instruments resulting in new, cool-sounding music.
Anybody that can make their guitar sound like a motorcycle he is a beast. Larry Graham is that. He was ahead of his time. The first time I heard earthquake back in the day when I bought the 8 track to now do you wanta dance I was blown away by the song earthquake. Larry Graham is the king of bass guitar playing. Hands down
Beautiful to watch-he is so full of rhythm-and to listen to-he is so musical. Damn! Just love this! Thank you brother. You deserve all that you have. Bless you for sharing!
Thumping, Plucking and Pulling the Strings with his Hands And Singing with a "Pitch Perfect Voice from Baritone to 1st Tenor. That is Total Talent !!!!!! Thank You, "Sir" Larry Graham !!!!!!
This presentation was fun for me. I recall the age of many of his songs and did not realize who he was or anything specific about the man. My respect for his love with his wife and beautiful young daughter. His sense of humor is optimal, as well. When someone is giving guidance and showing techniques, the metaphor of providing examples is essential and he had that down well. In academic graduate work, you must be so precise. With Mr. Graham, I was at ease having played the bass in high school as a kid. Never professional and actually stopped being a player after high school and became a seeker of further information about the musicians that compelled me to feel good. I titled this with my youngest daughter's name and birthday.
Larry Graham was my bass model growing up in the 70"s. Started with Sly & gravitated to this super thump sound. Saw Graham Central Station about a dozen times in the 70's. OMG is this man the mack daddy of slap bass. LJ of the Brothers Johnson took it to another level. LG is the godfather for sure. Enuff said...Back in the day we called it THUMPING!!!! EC Brown my drummer & I did a lot of kicking back in the day!!! Fender P-bass was the tool of choice...
BIG CONGRATS !! Larry Graham !!! Picked #1 Bassist in the March 4th 2021 edition of EAST BAY TIMES . The East Bay Times is a newspaper serving the San Francisco east bay with a million readers (maybe not a million but close to it)
Dude is smooth as a silk suit. Just me enjoying an hour of groove. Edit: At 32:00 Larry using his thumb as a pick. Hehe, I've had to do that on all fingers during a performance because by the end of the show I'd have blisters on all my fingertips. Love it!
I've only been playing bass for only a year, normally these kind of videos from the pro's are so overwhelming, but he is having so much fun, he makes it seem so "light". He calms my anxieties, and makes me feel like "its ok, everything's ganna be ok", moral of the story here; just have fun, and learn, but have funnnn.
big fan of Graham not just because his skill as a bass player but his great style and personality he is a great guy you can just tell happy soulful guy thanks for posting video
Wow! I actually owned a Roland jet phaser back in the 80's. My friend borrowed it, end of story. What a monster Larry is! He's as cool as Frank Zappa and Jimi. Pretty obvious where Claypool came from. But much sillier. Larry is a scary dude!!
One can tell that this man would have been such a great person to know. He seems like someone who would always be laughing and having a positive happy time. Truly a great spul
What can i say, LG is a true LEGEND and such humility from a truly gifted musician...you are d reason why i picked up the bass, thanks for sharing ur gift to everyone...
Yo, I never, ever get tired of watching this video, especially at 17:00. This groove is contagious. He is the Grand Majarasha of it all! The most inspirational video on bass I ever seen! And I am a guitar player. Makes me what to take up the Bass. Thank you for posting this. Whoever disliked this video has no soul. This is great. Stay safe out there.
Yes. You would be amazed at what was *_prevented_* by studio heads/record companies in the past. _"No you _*_can't_*_ play or sound like that. We are marketing you as this."_
Haha, you can't deny the influence Larry Graham had on Les Claypool, not just technique, not even just in the fusion of rock and funk but even down to the leg bounce. I also see a lot of influence on Prince when he takes to the Bass. And as for 33:08, that's a bassline so filthy that even the drummer and cameraman found themselves pregnant shortly afterward.
He a total package. Plays, sings, writes, produces, changes the way an instrument is played and then shows you how he did it!
+Buelligan88 yeah man cannot imagine how funk would be today without him
I assume he can cook too.
Sounds like he's cookin' right here in this video!
Too bad he's in that Cult & led others into it MJ & Prince.
Watchman4u
I agree! The Jehovah witnesses is a cult...to deny Christ Jesus as God is cultic and false doctrine.
The dude is not only brilliant, he has the most positive upbeat vibe about him as well - Awesome...
That vibe likely stems from his faith.

2-How can i be so funky?
3-I need more videos of this guy.
It is a great question a person should ask of oneself - how can I be so funky?
i keep thinking why haven't i seen damon wayans playing larry graham in a skit or movie, serious or comedy
I haven't showered since I watched this video

This is also subbed in japanese too... so...
amazing
Play it at 1x75 to get the right speed
Your comment should have got a million likes, its obviously impossible because we've known for a long time majority are dunce.
Name song?
No body like Larry Graham. My all time favorite bass player. Often imitated but never duplicated.
WOW this man makes the bass SO DARN COOL! He plays with such precision, heart and soul that you can't help but stop and listen. His licks are BEASTLY! He's amazing.
Ladies and gentleman: the father of slap bass. Without him, there would be no Marcus Miller, Flea, Les Claypool, Mark King, etc., etc. , etc.

Les Claypool plays bass like this
I love the way Larry plays the bass but the guy's also one hell of a singer....also, whoever that drummer is, he's a complete beast.
any bass player, good bad or ugly, is always elevated by a good drummer
ironic that Larry developed his signature style in the absense of a drummer. True innovator!
That drummer is Bad Man!!!
the late Kozo Suganuma
25:08 straight up doom metal.
This the deepest, most advanced master class in music I've ever seen. Every time he says "this is very important ..."
The KING! Longevity is on FULL Display here after all of these decades ....Larry you are the Best Funkster EVER!
No one else like him. Many imitators, many duplicators. The Bass line to his song "Hair," probably the greatest bass line ever written!!
That jet phase pedal is fantastic.

Almost Black Sabbath vibe

Definitely completely lost my shit too. haha

Anyone who has ever raised a thumb to a bass has to acknowledge Mr. Graham! Yesssssss!!!!
39:41 - ABSOLUTELY F's me up. Cannot believe how good this sounds. This dude's beyond good.
Hahaha you said it brother! Smokes the album version in my opinion. Such a genius of a human being, respect to Mr. Graham
For people who are curious, the groove used during the Jet Phaser demo is The Phantom of the Opera. Yes, he DID.
Achievement Unlocked: Bloody Thumb.
@Stevie Wolfe The worst part about the concept of thumb period is that it implies your thumb can get pregnant.
This is so wonderful. Obviously the inspiration like players such as Flea and Les Claypool, I'm so enthralled.

Haha, you can't deny the influence Larry Graham had on Les Claypool, not just technique, not even just in the fusion of rock and funk but even down to the leg bounce. I also see a lot of influence on Prince when he takes to the Bass. And as for 33:08, that's a bassline so filthy that even the drummer and cameraman found themselves pregnant shortly afterward.
+Colin Rushton 37:20 the growling too.. there's nobody quite as fierce as Larry on the bass. Dirty, filthy, gorgeous
The structure of his playing was even imparted on Claypool.
