| Most (not all) of Animals and The Wall is Gilmour on bass. Prior to that it's pretty much all Roger with a few exceptions (like the 'One of These Days' bass part which was doubled by Gilmour and Waters) |

Tony is always in the right place at the right time for Peter's music. He is an incredibly lyrical, thoughtful bassist. His work with King Crimson proves that he has monster chops, but man, I love listening to what he adds to Peter's songs. A true master.

| | | | Steve DiGiorgio, to me he doesn't overplay nor "forces" his way in. |

| | | | Ben Shepherd - imo he does everything right |

| | | | Duck Dunn, George Porter Jr, David Hood, Timothy B.Schmit, Berry Oakley, John Entwistle, Roger Waters, Allen Woody, Jack Bruce, Oteil Burbridge and although sometimes a little busy for my taste Tim Bogert. Also Dale Peters from the James Gang though not a super technical player I always liked his tone. |

| | | | I don't think Geddy Lee is too flashy, if he wasn't playing how he plays Rush just wouldn't be as good.
