What fusion bassists are you listening to?

[BassNoob1]

JACO PASTORIUS

But seriously, the man is a genius. I never thought the electric bass could sound so good. He's the reason I'm investing in a fretless bass.

At the moment I'm particularly enjoying the likes of Gary Willis (Tribal Tech), Tom Kennedy (Dave Weckl Band), Jonas Hellborg, Matt Garrison, Hadrien Feraud...

I also really enjoyed Etienne MBappe's playing on the latest John McLaughlin disc 'To The One'

Jimmy Haslip and Victor Wooten along with the old Jaco recordings.

[Bombadil]

...and, of course, Dave LaRue with the Steve Morse Band (though Jerry Peek rips it on Steve's first solo album The Introduction)

[N.F.A.]

Francis Moze with Gong on the album Gazeuse (or Expresso in the states) I saw them live back in this time and was blown away by all of them. I didn't know who any of them were, but they were popular among my friends in Germany at that time. A very memorable show indeed.
