Who's your Greatest Bass player ever

[RayCTID]

 

[big gaz]

Stanley Clarke, the Project albums with George Duke are pure class ( school Days on OGWT was fantastic )
Marcus Miller.
Squire, Lee, Entwistle and Bruce.
Tony Butler.

10 years later can I add Jeff Ament and the great Nathan East .

Joe Dart from Vulfpeck.....mind blowing bassist in an amazingly technical yet musical band...






And Stuart Zender of Jamiroquai....their first few albums are superb

I like the sound of Vulfpeck. Never heard of them before. Are they just instrumentals?

 

[There is a Light]

Don’t know if he’s the best, but Mani is a great in my eyes

 

[GoatersLeftShin]

Hard to pick from Paul McCartney, Bernard Edwards, Larry Graham, Jaco Pastorius or Bootsie Collins.

If I was pushed it would be McCartney.

 

[DelToro]

Can't pick (no pun intended), but, favourites are

Mike Rutherford, almost plays it like a lead guitar. His fretwork for "I know what I like " shows this

Entwistle

Squire is very "funky"

John Deacon.

and finally, NO LAUGHING AT THE BACK
Nick Beggs, formally of Kajagoogoo...I SAID NO LAUGHING.
He used to be the bassist for Steve Hackett tours, and I saw him 10 years ago at The Academy on Oxford Rd. He was unbelievably good, if not brilliant.

Nick Beggs is getting better and better. Great musician.

Had a look but can’t see him mentioned. No one is fucking with Victor Wooten. Saw him at Ronnie Scott’s few years back and was always a fan. Absolutely stunning. Check out any YouTube videos he has it all.
