Chris Squire
He is exactly the kind of bassist I have no use for.


He goes absolutley nowhere extremely fast.


I would have said plodding or lumbering, but then I like his playing in
context.


No love for Bootsie? John Paul Jones? Tony Levin?


Bootsie (and Graham) left off because I don't appreciate theri styles,
they dopn't fit my criteria
it does nothing for me.
John Paul Jones is ok, but not up to being on the list
Levin, ok, not up to the list
Upon further reflecetion, I forgot to include Pino Palladino
in the mid late teens on my list


*Bootsy is an American institution. Gotta give him props.- Hide quoted text -

so, waht kind of bass do you play?
i mean, the make and model and configuration of bass guitar, not your
style


I don't play bass. I have worked on a lot of basses. Guitars too.

I keep a couple of guitars around the house for idle amusement, but
no bass. Bass is only useful in a band.
