It seems that no matter who or how successful the bassist is someone will have "something" bad to say about them. I understand not everyone appreciates the same things. But even when we are discussing some of the "greats" someone always thinks they are grossly overrated in some way. Can anyone name a bassist who doesn't get negative coments?
Good Luck!

But I'd question saying Jaco, many people don't care for his music.
