Sign in to disble this ad
Most pianists hate Richard Clayderman and most saxophonists hate Kenny G (I do realized now that even some bassists do).
So is there a bassist where every bassist would love to hate?
VW?
Edit: Have I just opened a can of worms?

Did you ever see his crappy bass solo on YouTube? It's so bad it's genius.

In all honesty though, I don't think he's that bad, and his band is HUGE.

It's funny how all the players people love to hate are the ones that have sold millions and millions of records. I wonder if Korn, KISS and Blink 182 were underground bands nobody had heard of would people have different opinions?
I'm not a fan of any of the above (OK maybe I have a weak spot for KISS) but I think they should only be applauded for not letting a lack of technical talent stand in the way. All just my humble opinion of course...
