There's Bootsie Collins, Roger Glover, Steve Harris... but, um, if I were going to be one of them, I'd have to give up the tracts of land, unless genetic engineering advances pretty damn quick.
Guess I'll have to go with Tina Weymouth.

Also, Lee Sklar (maybe without the beard), and Jimmy Johnson (I wish I could have a ponytail like that).

runner up: Martyn P Casey, not just because he's a great bassist, but also plays with the coolest band on earth.

That way I could be a wizard with groove who actually gets paid.

But if I could have someone else's talent, it would be John Paul Jones.
