Canada has produced some great bassists. I was wondering what are your favorites. Mine are....
Geddy Lee - Amazing
Gord Sinclair of The Tragically Hip. Some tasty lines and grooves from this guy. |

Fergus Marsh did some really impressive work with Bruce Cockburn in the 80s on the bass and stick. |

He played bass in "The Open Mike Band" on "Open Mike with Mike Bullard". Google him. He is an excellent 6-string player!
