This should be in the "Bassists" forum.
That said, it's way too hard for me to pick just one bassist so out of my top crop, I'll just mention Pino Palladino for his effortless and free flowing musicianship

Johnson provides such a solid anchor, and drives James Taylor's music along. I prefer his era of playing to Leland Sklar, not to put him down by any means.

Pino; Roscoe Beck; Tony Levin; Rocco Prestia; Chuck Rainey
