With Flea's slap bass replacing the clavinet of the original Stevie Wonder hit, Higher Ground remains one of his most widely recognised riffs!

Here’s a quick tip to get it just right: Flea doesn’t actually use any hammer-ons here, even though it does sound kind of dope like that too ???? Plus, keep an ear out for that subtle difference between the first and second rounds of the riff.

Have you been playing this one the Flea way or do you put your own spin on it? Let us know in the comments!
