EVERYBODY NEEDS TO SEE THIS!!!!!

[Larry Graham snip - luv4u]

PR1NCE was so on target when he quoted "Larry Graham is FUNK ITSELF" in the liner notes of Larry's last album "GCS2000" which was released in 1999 as part of the New Power Pack.
This is why this Man is like a
GOD on the bass. Just think what Larry would do with the bass line to
"777-9311".....WHEWWWWW ! eek

Yeah...yeah...yeah. We know Larry Graham is one of the baddest men to ever touch a bass! We...well...I...just don't like seeing him on stage with Prince. And no...that has nothing to do with me not liking to see Prince share the spotlight either. I positively LOVED seeing him with Stevie, Chaka, Yolanda, and India the other day!!!

Why don't you follow your own advice and book a seat on the next shuttle.


I am sick and tired of you funk haters. Larry does not even show up as often as he use to but we still get bitching and complaining. Enough it is tired.

Larry Graham is top 3 in my all-time faverite bass players (James Jamerson, and Bootsy Collins). Larry is a living legend right in our midst. Oneken, you on point about hearing Larry play the bass line in his own style of "777-9311". I bought the Graham Central Station Anthology and was blown away at his playing. Especially "Earthquake" "The Jam" "Ghetto" to name a few. For people who want to know more go to youtube.com and check out his video clip of bass-playing techinques. He talks about the origins on the song ideas for many of Sly And The Family Stone hits.

Lynn, the whole family's like that. I occasionally catch his brothers' show here in Nashville. They slam. But, they play everything a little too fast, in order to show off their virtuoso chops.

Larry Graham has an instructional video where he teaches slapping and plucking and I was sitting there watching it like, man this sh@t is incredible! Larry is a funkmeister. No doubt about it an old school pro.
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.

And the endless opinios that Larry Graham sucks is tired. This post is about his ability as a bass player and we get crap about how he should get on a space shuttle. It is B.S and it needs to stop. After all we get a 100 post about how Wendy and Lisa are gods and that is just as tired as the Larry bitching.

Wow, man...that's off the hook fucked up. That's such a cruel thing to wish something bad happens to somebody. I mean, seriously, what has that man ever done to you? I can answer that shit...nothing at all. If u don't like Larry, fine. Whatever. But damn,..to actually hope that he blows up to bits, is,..I don't know player. That's deep.

And it is not up to you either. The Larry bitching is tired and you will notice I am not the only person that thinks the the shuttle comment is harsh.

Wow! I can't believe that anyone would find anything wrong with Larry Graham. As far as bass players are concerned Larry is a legend. Oh well, like Sly says "different strokes for different folks, and so on and so on and scoobie doobie doo".

I never claimed to agree with any of those comments either.
