Best Bass Player

[cabinessence]

Well, who do you say? There are so many great ones with diverse styles. After tireless research the list has been whittled down to a chosen few.

Your list demonstrates your lack of low end knowledge.

It's a shame the audio isn't more bass forward in that track. Standup bass is badass.

The late Donald "Duck" Dunn..from Booker T to top session man..

 

 

 

And from Muscle Shoals to Traffic....David Hood played with just about them all....

This is the list of the people. The question is who is, not who was, so we're dealing with living legends here. So far w're in a 50/50 split for first overall between Lewis and Lee.

Jaco Pastorius of

Weather Report 

[AV.]

Pete Wentz.

[Ghostsof1915]

John Entwistle.

The list is still poor, even only considering currently alive bass players. 

 

Victor Wooten, Billy Sheehan, Anthony Jackson, Bobby Vega...I could go on and on.

 

You are a bass enthusiast perhaps, but you're not ready for the big leagues.

This poll is getting out f control. Let's just stick the top chosen 10 folks.

They are indeed good bassists. Do you know how good Carol Kaye is? Geddy Lee? Rick Lewis? Cue bass solo!
