Description
The legendary Larry Graham joins Musicians Reveal with Joe Kelley for a deep, soulful, funny, and historical conversation spanning his early days, the birth of Graham Central Station, his groundbreaking work with Sly & The Family Stone, and his lifelong friendship with Prince. Larry opens up about inventing slap bass, preparing for his appearance on Late Night with David Letterman, the excitement around his BB King’s NYC show, and the magic of recording at Paisley Park. Along the way, he shares unforgettable stories about touring the world, staying healthy on the road, family life, musical legacy, and the moments that shaped one of the most influential bassists in history.
🎙️ Musicians Reveal with Joe Kelley features legendary and emerging funk, R&B, and Prince-associated artists. On air since 1982 and now spanning five decades, the show was personally spotlighted by Prince on his website in 2004. He also gifted us the One Nite Alone box set in 2002 — before any other media outlet.
