Steve Harris - Iron Maiden
Bob Skeat - Wishbone Ash
Lemmy - Motorhead/Hawkwind
Roger Waters - do i even need to say it okay, Pink Floyd
and on another lovely side note i also love my bike, you can ride it if you like :choc:
John Entwhistle (The Who)
Flea (RHCP)
Shavo Odajian (SOAD)
Midge or Linde I always get them two mixed (HIM)
Paolo Gregoletto (Trivium)
Lemmy Kilnmeister
My Dad
Krist Novoselic (Ex Nirvana)
James Maxted (Beverly)
Flea.
Can't get much better.
:P
Matthew McDonough (Creeping Nobodies)
Doug Tielli (Lenin i Shumov)
Evan Cranley (Stars)
They're really the only ones I really pay attention to.
Nothing can surpass the godly skills Cliff Burton once bestowed upon us, damn public transport, good for nothing!
Steve Harris, Jason Newsted, James Macdonough are also favourites. I like Rob Trujillo though.
Eero Heinonen from.. need I say?
let me guess Zeldy, in fact i wont i'll just think it and leave you with this background music :choc:
nik0tine.
A few of my faves have been mentioned, but in addition, I'd say Geddy Lee and Les Claypool...
My bike doesn't suck! ;_;... Mean Venom.
There are alot of bassists that are masters of standard electric too, that's when things get kickass.
Roger Waters, hands down best bass player ever.
Roger Waters - Pink Floyd
Flea - Red Hot Chili Peppers
The bassist from Incubus aswell.....I can't remember the name.
Along with the others mentioned, Justin Chancellor from Tool would be one of mine. Anyone that contributes to such a great sound in a godlike band is awesome in my book.
Flea is the king. <3
Philip Lipscomb, from Taproot. I don't especially like the band, or his bass playing or anything - he's just so damn cool. They were the opening act for a concert I went to last year, and I was pretty impressed. He's got some crazy stage presence.
No one else really stands out to me in any way.
Flea(RHCP)
Shavo Odadjian(SOAD)
Sean Yseult (White Zombie)
Geezer Butler(Black Sabbath)
Geddy Lee(RUSH)
The lack of Les Claypool in this thread distresses me.
And yes, Micheal "Flea" Balzary. Of course.
Kristoffer Gildenlow, the man can play so much stuff with so much soul. He can do rock, metal, blues, jazz, funk, etc.
