I am seriously tired of people name dropping marcus miller and victor wooten... we all know they're great (hell, marcus is one of my fav. bassists of all) but that should derail us from enjoying les' style.
seriously, anyone who knows how to slap can play this. if you wanna see some technical slap listen to Marcus Miller or Victor Wooten. I'm not saying Les Claypool isn't amazing but honestly Les and Flea are way too overated.
@JudasAngel666 i dont wana sound like a dick or anything man...but obviously u cant even spell his name...so u havent even heard most of his good stuff
@motoxchamp321 Actually..Less can Come on He played for Metallica,Ozzy,He did The southpark song,He's got more Range. And I'm not trying to KNOCK flea but hes just overratted and Really all he's done is Chillies stuff(Wich for him waso nly good for the early years and By the way)
@JudasAngel666 flea can play jazz blues funk punk rock and rock...les just kinda does his own thing which is awesome im prolly a bigger primus fan than you.lol..but i just dont like when people say flea is overated ....hes a great bassist...and i think he worked hard to get where hes at
@motoxchamp321 MMm Sorry man I have to disagreee I admit he worked hard but..LEs is just WAY WAY WAY more..Inventive with his bass Guitar playing(And also I'm A HUGE HUGE HUGE fan of primus myself)
@JudasAngel666 ehh i think Flea IS overrated. yes he is good. but was he in as many projects as Les Claypool? does Flea sing and write and makes films? talent wise, Les Claypool stomps Flea. my personal opinion. lol
@JakeWeirdo12 Maybe you need to read what convo was about? Moron, we are here to put a comment about a video we are watching and just cuz you dont like what i said, dont mean u need to troll my comment. dipshit. fail troll.
@JudasAngel666 .i guess you dont know much about flea, his work goes way back including being in the original line up for the punk band Fear. he has many musical degrees and has been in major recordings from young Mc (bust a move),alanis morset to tom morello and janes adiction. i dont compare the two. i like them both
omg his fingers move sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo quick!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is no such thing as the best bass player...
Les is amazingly talented and so are a lot other bass players out there.
If you like it then let it flow through your body, if you don´t like it, just don´t listen to it.

Les? Overrated? HAHAHAHAHA!!! I'm sorry but there's no way you can be serious. However, I do agree with you that Flea is way too overrated.

Same. FLEE sucks compared to less this is one of his "weaker" solos.He's done better. Anyone thats heard him play can admit that.
