Prince and Chuckii Booker!

I know he's not going to make many people's list but I just wanted to mention Leroy Sibbles.

In my youth it was Geddy by a mile!

Regarding Roger Waters: Whatever one thinks of him musically, the man is an antisemite and a bum and he will never make my favorite list of anything.

Name one significant singer-bass player before Paul McCartney.....
He sorta invented the singer-bass player thing.

Slam Stewart and Major Holley we’re singing and playing bass long before Paul.

I was going to be indignant that Paul McCartney is not on the list, but rather than do that, I'll just say that he's my choice. Oops, someone pointed out to me that Macca is Paul, didn’t know that.

I didn't know what a Macca was either...
Who is this Sting?

[morgansterne]

I’m susceptible to the charms of female singers who play bass (and a song worth checking out). Melissa Auf Der Mar (followed the waves) , Kim Deal (gigantic), or Aimee Mann (voices carry).

 

[Danny O Danny]

James Dewar from the Robin Trower Band.

 

[higain617]

Lemmy, Phil, and Mark Burgess.

 

[Odonian]

John Doe.

 

[Tim Skaggs]

GLEN HUGHES!!!

 

[Danny O Danny]

Michael Been from The Call

 

[Booty Shaman]

Meshell Ndegeocello.

 

[selowitch]

Michael Been from The Call

Absolutely one of the best.

 

[Danny O Danny]

Justin Currie from Del Amitri

 

[Michael Bauer]

My vote is for Lisa Mann.

 

[Jaymo]

I can't pick just one. The entire list plus Jack Blades, Peter Steele, Roger Waters, Fred Turner, and too many more to list.

 

[two fingers]

I can't pick one. Too many killer players/singers on that list.
