Btw, " (#28) One Nation Under a Groove" was played by Bernie Worrell's left hand.
Song-Specific Personnel:
"One Nation"
Lead Vocals: Garry Shider, Junie Morrison, George Clinton
Bass Synth: Bernie Worrell
So much for research.

Ummmmm...is the creator of this list retarded? Geddy Lee #7? You must be on drugs. Geddy lee destroys bassist like john entwistle in a second. That guy couldn't play his way out of a paper bag. He has the weakest bass riffs ever known to mankind. Mega nub bassist. Les Claypool and Geddy lee should be ****ing tied for first. All the bassist listed above them ****ing suck.

One thing though; don't go to the comments page. The stupidity displayed in many comments are blinding! |

Maybe we can start a "Best Rock Basslines Not Played By A Bass Player" list and include "One Nation Under a Groove," which does have a well-architected line.
