Larry is indeed a great bassist however Bernard Edwards was better and in the end more influential IMHO | |

Wow this was a great (tho chessy 80's) vid. THe thing about these instructional vids is that they dont teach you anything but you do get to see some great playing. And Larry is an amazing bassist. "Thinking like the Keys on Prince's piano, we'll be just fine" | |

Yep perhaps he did, but did he revolutionise disco, and in turn rap? i give you Good Times/Rappers delight - I meant Influntial in terms of commercial and airplay ie recognisable by the masses , and Bootsy acknowledges Bernards skills | |

Larry Graham's influence on music is undisputed.
The guy is a bass-playing legend. Just listen to any of those early GCS albums. | |

thumb-slap rhythm guitar was around long before larry graham popularized it.
anyway for my taste even though larry is great, victor wooten is the world's absolute best bass guitar player. | |
