apart from myself...I have to go with Dr C's choices. Barry Adamson and Hooky are the greatest. More Bassists should use chorus pedals.

Was it Pete Faronden on the first Pretenders album? Good stuff there. Also: Whomever played on the early Joe Jackson records.
Finally, always like John Entwhistle, esp. on Tommy and Live at Leeds.

And for flash, Les Claypool/Victor Wooten/Christian McBride/Flea/Gary Willis are all good.
I don't really sound like any of them, though.

my favorite bassist, though not a guitar in sight, is aphrodite. (incredible) (redefines bass)

As far as I know, they only did one record - the '17 and Dying' EP. I can remember 3 tracks - 'Ha Bloody Ha', 'The Wrong Thing' and '17 and Dying'.They were absolutely NOT goth/tribal etc but got lumped in with that rubbish a little bit. I heard a lot of Factory/TG/Cabs/PIL influence, but because of the line-up they had a pretty unique twist. Peel picked up on them, and was genuinely enthusiastic about them. He played the EP a lot and interviewed them for one of the music papers, I think, in a 'best bands of next year' type feature.

But seriously -- so much of Jaco's output was schmaltzy self- indulgeance, and the Blue Nile (great bass playing on the first album, BTW) sounds restrained to me compared to, say, Amerika.

Was asked by a friend learning the bass to put together a playlist, and finally got to include Tracy Wormworth on a non-Christmas mix.
