Not in any particular order... and not a "complete list". Les Claypool (evil genius! He's playing in my head right now!) Victor Wooten (wow) Jaco Pastorius (The best that there ever was! tragic genius!) Paul McCartney (All-around great musician, and his bass lines are great!) Michael Manring (Mind blowing talent.. and he owes me four bucks!) Stanley Clarke (Seen him abuse the instrument!) Donald "Duck" Dunn (and he was with the "Blues Brothers"!) Mel Schacher (big Grand Funk Railroad fan! .. because of Mel.) Flea (High Energy!) Sting (I can't say that I have ever seen Sting on anyone's favorite list.. so I have added him, just to be there.) unknown studio bassist for "The Doors" Sheryl Crow (just to have her on the list.. granted there are a number of female musicians that are "better" bassist example) Carol Kaye (probably has a longer list of credits than anyone! .. she could be "The Door's" unnamed studio bassist... see the "Light my Fire" reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carol_Kaye ) MC Divinity (I saw her play at Victor Wooten's "Soul Circus" concert tour a few years ago.. great!) // Brian --- In [email protected], "escapeartist6182" <damiancsoundtracks@...> wrote: > Anyways, I want to post about your favorite bassist! > > I'm going to say my favorite are: > > 1) Les Claypool > 2) Victor Wooten > 3) Christopher Wolstenholme > 4) Larry Graham > 5) Justin Chancellor (I just like his style) > > Whats yours!? > ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
