Cairobill Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 (edited) I just wanted to share this totally amazing cut - 'Anti Love Song' by Betty Davis (better known for being the ex-wife of Miles Davis). It's a track from 1973 and Larry Graham is on bass. As slapping is getting a duffing up in another thread I thought I would be nice about slap - this defines to me what good slap is - dark, chugging and funky as hell. Betty Davis is one of the great lost artists of music. A VERY interesting woman... Turn it up and enjoy!

Only recently got into it, some immensly smooth bass playing going on through out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cairobill Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) Poor old Betty Davis - very much ahead of the curve culturally and stylistically...totally committed, filthy funk in that super minimal style. Love it! Edited November 27, 2009 by Cairobill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bundacious Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Filthy, filthy, filthy funk music. Love it. I'm going to call my kids Larry and Graham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
