Whom do you like the best and why.
No real reason for this, just curious.
There's no way I'm getting all the bassists up there, so just pick one.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2006 Location: Nova Scotia | | | I picked Cliff. Why? I don't know why I like him so much. I know he's not the best... Maybe it has to do with his amazing solo's... or his ability to headbang like crazy and not miss a note. Or the fact that he just looks so damn cool.. Many reasons, but Cliff Burton is my all time favorite bassist.
Where's Geezer? Geddy? DeMaio? JPJ? That list is far too small to pick from, except for me... My favorite was actually on the list. |

There may be better players out there, but these three guys are the best at playing music that I like to listen to.

I Voted Entwistle cause my style is closer to his, but realy, both Geddy and John are equal for me. |
