FUNKY OR FREAKY? ??
John the Fisherman by Primus was the lead cut from 1989's live album Suck on This, and while its video featured Metallica's Kirk Hammett, and the track actually made it onto 1990's Frizzle Fry, it wasn't widely considered a Primus staple until its reissue in the early 2000s. That said, any fan listening today can immediately pick up on the magic of @lesclaypool 's sprightly, jerky bass line.
