Some of you nailed it and some of you really need :help:

Im very happy someone mentioned Cliff Burton, Greezer Butler, John entwistle, Les Claypool, Tony Levin, Berry Okeley, and Bootsy Collins For got to mention Paz any woman who can play bass and look that hot has a place in my heart

But im kind of upset no one mentioned Allen Woody, But i guess it's my job to mention him :smug:

That man was the coolest cat of all!
 
i know your all gonna eat me cos everyone here seems to have flea basher written into their cv but i think he's cool, and if theres one thing ive learnt in my life, its to damn well believe what you really believe and not let some jerk who knows thinks that they're better than you make you believe otherwise. Thats all im gonna say if anyone does wanna moan at how crap he is or i am for choosing him.

But see, I don't think that I'm better than you, I happen to very well know it. Therefore you also believe that Flea is not cool and is not a very good bassist to boot. There , now don't you feel better. BTW I spell Jerk with a capital J.
