Great call on Billy Gould. I have to admit, these threads turn into a contest to see how many bassists you can put on a list, but I was listening to the first few FNM CD's recently and Billy comes across as the strongest member of the band - regardless of the singer. Definitely an overlooked talent - as is/was Bob Daisley....and curse Sharon for taking him off the first two Ozzy solo albums. :gethim:
 
Geezer
Sir Paul
John Paul Jones
John Entwistle
Flea
Bootsy
José Cuervo ..... I think I can play when I jam with him.
Kim Gordon
Jaco
Mike Inez .... he does not owe me money.


James Jamerson is the one. Just amazing what he has done.
 
i would have to say my favorite bassist has got to be:

Ryan Martinie (mudvayne) :rock:
