The slap bass technique is a staple of rockabilly and psychobilly music. Didn't know it was used in blues until I heard a live recording of Willie Dixon ("Big City Blues & Howlin' Wolf in Warsaw" - a great little album released by Radio Poland).

I love the fact that there appears to be such little effort in his playing. I know so much is going on, but his touch appears so light, controlled and just in the pocket. Just completely awesome. This is a perfect example of how simplicity and control prove perfection when debating differences in technique, soul, and musical training.

Willie I'll be bringing my Fender Fretless P bass with custom body I made on a bridgeport milling machine and we will jam one day!! Paid $300.00 for the Fretless P bass back in 1975. Jam with you in about 20 years from now.
