MABB v6.6.6

the bassists are always left out

Alex Webster, Erlend Caspersen, Steve Digiorgio, Eric Langlois, Jacob Schmidt, Derek Boyer, Marcin Nowak.

Flea, Les Claypool, John Paul Jones, Alex Webster, I dig what Eric Langlois did on None So Vile, and of course that asshole they used to have in that limey band there with the suits and the cocke.

There are others I'm sure I'm forgetting right now as I am hungover. Someone once told me to check out Stanley Clarke, but I do not know of him.

Blacky from Voivod, John Entwistle, Bernard Edwards, Geddy Lee, Chris Squire - top 5 fo sho

I can't disagree more. It's a big misuse of potential talent to just have them hold down the bottom end.



My favorites are Jeroen Paul Thesseling from Obscura and Magnus Olsfelt from The Crown. Jeroen Paul Thesseling, in particular, is the standard by which death metal bassists should be measured. His sound is positively sinister.

do you have a youtube clip of him?

but Geezer frequently would play something different from the guitars, he was excellent at harmonizing with the guitar to create one sound

It's really why they didn't need a second guitar.
