5 Favorite Bassists?

#212
Let me bring another long dead thread back to life:

Geddy Lee- of course
Billy Sheehan- hometown hero, I've seen him in bars way too many times to count
Chris Squire R.I.P- of course
Will Turpin of Collective Soul- very underrated player
John Wetton R.I.P- listen to King Crimson USA live....wow!! the man could play bass and sing his ass off.

Phil Lynott - Thin Lizzy
Geddy Lee - Rush
Chris Squire - Yes
David Paton - Pilot, Kate Bush, Alan Parsons Project
Abraham Laboriel - Koinonia and a million sessions

But so many others could have taken either of the last two slots (John Wetton, Barry Devlin - Horslips, Lee Sklar, Mo Foster, Kelly Groucutt - ELO, Bernard Edwards, Neil Murray - Whitesnake back when they were good, Randy Hope Taylor - Incognito... the list goes on).
