    dang, that guy is good.some others that deserve consideration is the guy from Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Kristian Dunn of El Ten Eleven (because he also plays guitar, and plays bass for the softlightes).

    Flea is overrated. He's a good slap/pop combo bassist, but there are plenty better. Eric Avery is much more creative IMO.

    Bootsy Collins and Larry Graham were true inovators, never forget the true school!</p>

    </p>

    My personal faves are Cliff Burton, Adam Deuce, Lemmy, Les Claypool and P-Nut from 311 purely for his manic facial expressions...</p>
