It was on Primus’s majorlabel debut, Sailing The Seas of Cheese, that Les Claypool first recorded with his legendary 6string fretless bass, made by famed luthier Carl Thompson. “At first it was like wrestling an octopus,” said Claypool. “I started banging on it and tapping on it, and before you know it I'd written the riff to Jerry Was a Race Car Driver.”

In today’s NEW video, you’ll learn what makes this Les Claypool bass line one of the greatest ever. Plus, you'll get playing examples & sheet music so you can understand every note – and decide for yourself if Les Claypool deserves the title of bass genius.
