OK, guys, someone posted a poll whos your favorite guitarist, I had to post whos your favorite Bassist, now I listed my personal Favorites, actually theres many more but I thought Id list the highlight ones, Jaco's Solos just really get my attention everytime I hear them, I kinda think he stole the show quite often with some of his work hehehe, as for speaking about stealing the show as a Bassist, Geddy Lees the front man of Rush as we all know, it must be cool to be the front man and be the bassist instead, really cool for me, I really really love Tommy Shannon, Im a big SRV fan but Tommy is just great, it must be rough to fill the shoes of a Bass player when your playing along with a great guitarist and not the front liner, wich basically most of these guys I listed are in the company of great guitarists, im sure my whos your favorite guitarist poll if i posted one would comprise of SRV, Jimmy Page, Eric Johnson, Steve Vai, and Joe Satriani, seeing Stu and Roscoe up there in that G3 DVD was like BONUS, a 2 for 1 in the same show, made me happy, and lets not forget theres other great bassists and guitarist, please pencil in your favorites that I might have not mentioned, trust me the list could go on as I could list many more bassists but these are my top favorites. I would have to say those guys listed really get the groove on, ok im being silly now, btw I voted Tommy Shannon because I felt hes one of the forgotten guys that always gots stuck behind the lime light of the front runner, anyways thats me, I usually run across someone whos like yea yea that guy kicks ass when I mention SRV but then Im like ok now whats the bass players name or the drummer for that matter and its usually like ummmm ummmmmm I dunno, I hate that ****, or Im like whos Jaco Pastorius and again, ummmmmmm who????????? anyways vote away for your favorites
