Gotta take them with a grain of salt. They're just the opinions of people who actually think you can select a "best" in music world.
Don't let it bother you.

Don't let it bother you. | Les Claypool and James Jamerson didn't even break top 10, that's screwed up. Paul Gray being on the list at all is also messed up. Opinions from people who obviously don't play bass are annoying, I doubt any of these musicradar readers do. |

No one has the instrument mastered, and different players are better at different things. So IMHO there are no best, just different. |
