Best is so subjective. There are no compulsories to make sure we're all on the same page.

I'd put Stanley Jordan, Arthur Barrow and Tom Fowler up there

To be honest, if you listen to records by The Who, I myself can't really hear John Entwistle mainly because of Pete Townshend....and no I'm not semi-deaf or anything

The guy in Cream or Led Zepp were not bad. Paul McCartney was a true musician.

Heck any and all of them never missed a note, from Aphrodites Child to ZZ TOP?

I think I got to go with Lucy. Hendrix guy was first one I really noticed along with probably Cream.

There are about a zillion of them who can do that well-known Country rip and never miss. George Jones, Haggard, G. Straight....on and on. Best?

Yes Jack Bruce from Cream, a good choice....we should have a poll on best drummers, I already vote John Bonham and second Buddy Rich....I already pre-voted in a poll that hasn't occured yet

 

[Harry Dresden]

the late James Jamerson tops quite a few best bassist lists....

Black Sabbath songs are simple, but the bass came thru heavy. NIB?

 

[Mac1958]

Well, if Geddy Lee isn't on there, I'm going with

LEH-MEE! LEH-MEE! LEH-MEE!

 

[leftwinger]

Lynrd Skynrd, Marshall Tucker Band, Allman Brothers, Sting......the list is long. seemingly endless.
