Lary Graham with special guest Prince North Sea Jazz 2013 

+Phillip Hopson, oh yes indeed! When he showed up to play with others he didn't get all egotistical and try to steal their spotlight.

he was amazing.

he hated when people jump over the cliff and take over the groove. He stays in the pocket. He calls it "respecting the music".

@@randymonster4105 That's right.

@@MINIMOTOMADNESS Love that Big smile on his face!!!

Humble and taking a less presence & playing with Artists is what made him BEYOND. LOVE & RESPECT.

Skygazer Prince was wearing his flip flop wedges! He always seemed happy when he played with Larry Graham & 3RDEYEGIRL the thump& pluck. .u can totally hear it. u want to learn how 2 play BASE or guitar or both.

I know how you feel

Mario van holle hopefully when I go to heaven Prince will hug me I always wanted a hug from him if I'm lucky a kiss to

I want that too 😉

Wise observation! Thanks for the info on the ax.

Australia? Piano & A Microphone bootleg from Sydney has already been released :)

John Arundell yes, melbourne : ) the bootleg of the whole show? where can I find that? searched on google, only few on Tilda.

Lumibug Lucky you! I didn't even know he was here believe it or not :/ since found out that the announcement, sellout and shows all happened within about 12 days. 'Sydneyapolis' is a 4-disc set comprising the complete early shows from both Sydney dates and partial late shows from both Sydney dates. Good to know it exists in high quality apparently but the release was limited to about 500 initially on Eye Records and is crazily expensive at over $200 currently .. I'm still considering it because I would've probably paid that to see him anyway, and due to the historic nature of the recordings now. You can also get Paisley Park from January, 'Californiapolis' from Oakland in March, and Atlanta from April. I found them on Discogs, already ordered Paisley Park (reasonable price) and Oakland (expensive 3-disc set) but also found cheaper versions of Sydney and Atlanta at another site which I might gamble on possibly being the same recordings .. that site was called iOffer. The setlists for each Melbourne show are on setlistfm but that's about it. Did you go to the first or second night? Would have been amazing in that intimate environment for such a legend digging deep into his back catalogue.

people also love the Music in the Netherlands... at the Port of Rotterdam.. this is Europe people... Not the US.. Funk ,jazz is loved worldwide

perhaps he is jealous about her , be a man and try to understand him :-)

Thats Larry's hype man.

His nephew Drake is equally annoying.

Jehovah witness bring all the familly everywhere, that a fact !!

They seem to love each other a lot. And she does sing some. Love is love! I know what you mean though. 🤷‍♀️

+icedbannanas That's cuz Prince luvs Bay Area musicians like Larry, Sheila E., Rosie Gaines.

For real

Prince and Larry Graham two of the greatest

yeah and most of this audience said - Who the fuck is that AFRO Guy ?

***** He played that festival 3 nights in a row. They know him.

Whistler4u ive noticed that people who enjoyed NJ Festival werent interested in Prince concerts - i was there in 2011 , actually i came to see that last concert on Sunday / Monday

***** That's generalizing. Many who go to NSJ also like Prince. Many also don't.

:-) , true

unimportant remark

Very unimportant!!! Larry Graham has a resume that will make your head spin starting with playing with James Brown! Prince highly respected Larry and thought of him as his big brother. Lets not forget Sly and the family stone and the funckadelicis!

Belinda J no but he's best side kick he's had.best band 3rd eye girl and miss Alicia Keys

Prince himself said that Larry Graham is the best bassist of all time in his book... eat that up!

Belinda J but Larry loved Prince and Prince loved Larry 💜

+Phillip Hopson I thought Sly didn't want any help. He lives in a camper in my neighborhood and from my understanding, he's too far gone on the drugs. But who knows?....

It's just hard to believe a stone cold talent as such could end up with nothing or no one, yet people still profiting off his ideas and creations. But there's nothing you can do when a person has given up. Ill pray for Mr. Stone and will continue enjoying his music. Family Affair!

+Rodney Allgood I had read that too, but just recently (Dec 2015) see that the decision was reversed as Sly had handed those royalties over for 50% ownership in a production company, so he was not entitled to them. He is certainly not the first musician who has ended up in dire straits because of spending their life earnings on drugs. Very sad.

+gaae2000 More like he was the bass player of Sly and the Famliy Stone and a good friend of Prince. He sort of invented slap bass. Have some respect.

Probably not for about 25 years before this :/ Are you for real?

They have been close since the 1990's. Graham Central Station was a big influence on Prince. The often played together and were close friends.
