    Hard to say, my friends, but these days I'm partial to Jack Cassidy. Watch the "Fly Jefferson Airplane" DVD for some great bass licks.

    Phil lesh, Mike Gordon, FLea (RHCP), and I've heard Les Claypool plays an excellent bass.

    John Paul Jones, John Entwistle, and who could forget the unmistakable tone of Chris Squire of Yes, as well as Jack Bruce of Cream.

    Of course as far as modern bassists go, I'll say Les Claypool and Flea take the cake.

    Nobody mentioned Cliff Burton? Anesthesia: Pulling Teeth from Metallica's Kill 'Em All is one of the most insane bass solos...ever.

    Flea and Les Claypool tie for second.
