Yeah, but his redneck version of Snoop Dogg's "Gin & Juice" is pure genius.

jaguarr said:Yeah, in his days with the Police, Sting definitely was pretty good. Pastorious always gets overlooked. Probably because he died so young. Check out some of Billy Sheehan's solo stuff. I think you'll dig it if you're a bass player.

PLAS said:the problem with this is taste
one of my favorite bass players is the guy from AC/DC, the guy has great tone, his lines are always punchy and right on the money and he's not flashy at all
I also love Flea's style, he's funk, punk and hard core at the same time
Les is an amazing performer, but his style is too weird for a lot of people
Cliff Burton was great, very groundbreaking for his time (although he was basically a mixture of Geezer Butler, Lemmy and John Enthwistle), but he never had a chance to show his full potential
John Paul Jones came up with some of the greatest bass lines ever laid down
Justin Chancelor of Tool is also a very prominent player in his band
John Enthwistle is was and will always be the one that put the bass on the map
but I doubt anyone remembers the bass player from Mindfunk, he was a freak
