Great Bass Players

I think we have had threads on guitarists, drummers and vocalists, but none on bass players. So I decied to make a thread where everyone can post vides of some of the best bassists in the music industry. They don't have to be your favorites, just one that you think totally rock.

I may post some more later, in the mean time lets get some more kickass videos in here.

All of which that you mentioned DEBOG would be on my list.
I also like P-Nut from 311
Their new music isn't that great but the Bass Lines P-Nut has are good stuff

YouTube - 311 - You Wouldn't Believe



Simon Gallup, Bass Player for The Cure will always be one of my personal favorites.

Apparently not- you don't seem very sure of it.

Some of you guys don't know your stuff. Here's a REAL list of the best bassists ever (in no particular order)...

Victor Wooten
Jaco Pastorious
James Jamerson
Stanley Clarke
Francis Rocco Prestia
Larry Graham
Louis Johnson
Anthony Jackson

The only one of these named so far has been Victor Wooten. How the heck can you not name the others that I listed? These guys ARE bass guitar!

Bootsy Collins.

YouTube - Bootsy Space Bass Solo


When you talk about Bass players, how do you not mention Bootsy? That's like not mentioning Dan Marino when you talk about great quarterbacks.
