January 5, 200521 yr Author again, this is rock base right? Well, not necessarily. Charles Mingus is on there. Feel free to share other names, if you don't see them on the list.
January 5, 200521 yr Author i could share other names, but if noone has heard the music, what for? 648288[/snapback] To learn from your personal experience. It's one of the benefits of being in a message board. We learn stuff from each other.
January 5, 200521 yr i recommend you listen to the album lagrimas negras by bebo valdes and diego el cigala, with javier colina on bass. and listen to a tune called la candela by los van van with juan formell on bass.
January 5, 200521 yr i'm a huge RHCP fan and have been voting for basically all of them out of homerism(?).. but there is no doubt in my mind that Flea is the best bassist.

One of the reasons I'm looking for info on each person nominated is so that I can learn a bit about the ones I don't recognize. I voted for Burton. He made bass sound like a normal guitar, and his live solos were amazing.
January 5, 200521 yr You guys missed the boat on Entwistle. I love flea, but Entwistle of The Who is without a doubt the greatest of all time.

I purchased the 9/11 Concert for New York DVD just to watch him perform one last time. I was torn between him and Pastorius, but my vote went to Jaco; his stuff was beyond belief.
January 6, 200521 yr Damn only six bassists getting votes. 649203[/snapback] Better than 20 with 1 vote.
