You may have misunderstood me.
I agree, there are some nice bass lines on the old Bon Jovi tunes, but Alec John Such wasn't the bass player, it was a session player.

Geddy on the other hand.... definitely does. But even more than Geddy's bass playing, i'm more impressed with his solid ability to sing and play at the same time. In the 70's, he was one of the greatest rock singers ever. He's a pretty good keyboardist as well. And he has a great sense of melody and song arrangement.
I agree fully! Geddy is amazing all around. A lot more talent than most of us mere mortal bass players!! lol

If you wanted to be cheeky you could sneak Jaco in by way of the Ian Hunter album (and others) that he did.
