I just picked up marcus millers new cd, silver rain. I love it. I'm looking for more bassists that play the same type of music that Marcus does, please feel free to list any.

Oskar Cartaya has been described as a latin Marcus Miller(in a Bass Player Magazine CD review). His solo album is definetly worth checking out.

That guy's sound is very close to Marcus Miller's, even with a rosewood board and EMG pickups.

And Victor Bailey is another player to consider in this style.

And speaking of Funky bass players check out Meshell Ndegeocello all her stuff is awesome, but her early CD's are real funky.
