Ok, Which bassist do you prefer to listen to? Which one moves you more? I find Mike Gorden to be a better and more musical bass player than Les Claypool and essentially want to know where other people stand.

This belongs in the bassist forum ;) Also try a search for it, it's probably been covered.

I believe my Grandma is a better bassist than my mom. Because her style is shows better development.

hope that helps..

I like Les's creativity and witty attitude, so I'd vote for him.

But where's the Aston Barrett option? ;)

I prefer listening to Cactus...of course I'm overly obsessed with Phish :D

I love les, don't get me wrong...but I can just groove out to Gordon from here to kingdom come!

i think if claypool wasin phish it would be a little bit wierder, and if mike was in primus it wouldnt bee the same either. so why ask?

Dude, like how could you even say that... your Grandma plays with a pick and doesn't ever try fretless and upright and stuff

Your Mom is WAY better.


Oh wait, I mean.... I hate "Vs." threads and I'm in a mood so I'm closing this one. If Jay or Cass wanna open it, I'll leave it be.
