Oteil Burbridge...in the '80s.

Marcus Miller, Will Lee, Victor Bailey, John Patitucci, etc.
There are examples of these guys in a Pop/R&B/Funk format.

The one he had to sue them (and win) over to get his rights?
Who stole it from Robert Johnson...

More or less. The Lemon Song is a mash-up of 4 or 5 Robert Johnson tunes. Then again, most blues tunes are a re-hashing of blues "standards", and most of those standards come from two sources:

1) Robert Johnson
2) Willie Dixon

And some from previous writers, who even borrowed some stuff from pre-recording days (work songs, spirituals and so on).
My personal gripe is that Zep "borrowed" without any mention of any sources. By contrast, Cream went out of their way to credit the writers, thus, for example, helping out Skip James in his old age.

But it's not a Jazz bass. He used a Telecaster Bass with the single-coil pickup.
