phil lesh bass style

Where are Tim Bogert, Rick Laird and Paul Jackson ? How many people here are moaning at these guys because their “bassman” is not on the list. As one of the most exploratory jazz bassists out there, Charlie Haden expanded the sonic possibilities of double bass beginning with Ornette Coleman’s landmark album The Shape Of Jazz to Come. This is total bull… McCartney took the bass mainstream and turned it into an instrument, interwoven with the guitars. Along with his brother Carlton Barrett, who played drums for The Wailers, the duo were one of the tightest rhythm sections on record. Mel Schacher of GFR fame. What about Lee Jackson, John Greaves, Rockette Morton, Janick Top, Richard Sinclair, Bill McCormick, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, Trefor Geronwy ? and really? Joe Osborn from the wrecking crew played on over 200 hits with the best known artist across the globe. Tony Levin has intrigued me from the earliest King Crimson and Peter Gabriel days. Surely the list must’ve started out at 250 or 300…How do you decide who gets whittled down off the list? Paul McCartney 5th????? How can bass be quantified? He’s also a great vocalist. Andy Fraser-Free These will SURELY be the true greats- So Geddy Lee, Mark King, Phil Lynnot(the late) etc will come out tops,while Paul McCartney can find some consolation being way down in this list(included because of his fabulous singing and voice only). Nice to see him make the list but should be way up there! what !!!!!???? Paul McCartney? Seriously? Not sure what number but Michael Anthony, from Van Halen should be up there, somewhere. This coming from a long-time bassist. He is top 5 and incredible. Just past Jaco?? Eddie Macdonald, John Taylor and Adam Clayton to name but three. I didn’t think much of Paul McCartney at all as a bassist, nor as a singer for that matter, I do agree about john Entwistle though he was great. Decades. But Big Willie, oh what a player. This list sucks. The legend Mick Karn… not forgotten but sadly forgotten from this list. and Keith Richards is brilliant. I’ve never seen McCartney do anything as technical as Jaco Pastorius or Tal Wilkenfeld etc because his music style/genre never calls for it. I hold nothing against the famous band bass players , I love their stuff but this list is not correct. Pity that he’s largely gone off bass playing in recent years. He’s been the rock solid backbone of the best rock band of the last 30 years, yet he gets zero recognition. To me you forgot two icons…. Who make these lists??? Listen to “Story In Your Eyes”. To your argument, any list excluding John McVie, in my opinion, is not valid. Never been to Spain and Shambala were particularly melodic. Absolutely! Just because the band was/is great doesn’t mean that the individuals are great musicians. and at NUMBER ONE…. His playing is not about tricks, it’s about great melody in bassline, creative rhythm patterns and so smart arrangement. yay! Just the bassist for a great band. Hey Hey, we’re Primus and we Suck. Check out FZ:s 1974, 6 pc band, (G. Duke, Napoleon MB, Ruth U). Francis Rocco Prestia Jr. “The Legendary Sixteenth Note Groove Master” (March 7, 1951 – September 29, 2020) Rocco Prestia, American Bass Player See the bass intro to ‘My Baby Left Me’ as irrefutable proof. They’d blow about 80% of the guys on this list right off stage! I would put McCartney at number 2 and Willie Dixon at number 3. 5.0 out of 5 stars 3. Though he was a big guy, you could barely see the Duck’s fingers move on the strings, even when he was playing with rockers like Neil Young or Eric Clapton. Sklar, Dunn, East, and Louis Johnson in the bottom 10?!?! These are all great players, I don’t think you could or should put them in an order of best to worst. Come on. What about Dave Pegg (Fairport Convention, Jethro Tull) and the legendary Danny Thompson??? Overall not a bad list, I would switch Bill Wyman and Paul McCartney though, Wyman was far better and his bass lines on many Stones songs from the 70’s were just damn sexy! Followed by Claypool at #2. How can you miss out John Gustafson. The late,great, Peter Mars Cowling, Dieter Horns{Lucifers Friend}, Greg Lake, Dave Myles{Max Webster}, Martin Turner{Wishbone Ash},Charlie Tumahai{Be Bop Deluxe},Kasim Sultan{Utopia}, Doni Harvey,Jerome Rimson{Automatic Man}, Steve Fossen{Heart}, John McVie {Fleetwood Mac}, Steve Priest{Sweet}. Thank you for saying Mel shocker GFR is so underrated!!! Dudes, What, no the kid from the Partridge family, wah, wah, get over it, it is JUST a list! Danyel Morgan – formerly of Robert Randolph and the Family Band. He is very good, and I failed to give him credit where it was genuinely due. Fantastic Bass player… not even mentioned, Milt Hinton was known to his peers and many descendants as “The Dean of Jazz Bassists.”, You can always nit-pick with a list like this, and this one is not bad, but Israel “Cachao” Lopez was also a huge influence on other musicians in many genres and seems like a major omission. Any Geezer Butler #11?? Without a doubt John Entwisel! Where are James Jameson and Bob Babbit? Seriously, no BOB BABBIT!!! Hugh Hopper indeed. Techniquement le meilleur de tous est John myung et il n’est même pas dans la liste! I’m amazed that Mel Schacher from Grand Funk didn’t make the list. I have met and hung out with them both, and have seen them play in may scenarios. BTW, what about Jeff Pilson, Mark Anthony, and Billy Sheehan? Don’t have enough hours in the day to read all comments, but I don’t see Joey DeMaio from Manowar, nor Niels Henning Ørsted Petersen (NHØP). GARY THAIN!! And I may be guilty of the same, somewhat. Go see them, they get better with age! Female bassists stopped being pigeonholed as a novelty the minute she picked up the instrument. There are many I think should be on the list that aren’t, John Taylor, Tommy Shannon, Stuart Ham, Michael Anthony, Rudy Sarzo, John Myung, Dave Larue, Timothy B. Schmidt, Tal Wilkenfold, John McVee, Ross Valory Marco Mendozza, Gene Simmons or Tom (T-bone) Wolk. And me Gerald “Tugboat” Turner/ Digable Planets. now we’re talking … John Taylor my favorite no 1 bass player … the Rio bass lines are the best i ever came across! Cliff Burton and Steve Harris better than Tony Levin, Phil Lynott and Billy Sheehan…? Billy Sheehen should be in the top 5. that fucking list!!! Far too many are not listening to the bass players, or do not like the genre that they play, and it is preventing them to make fair comparisons. I can listen to that record for the bass alone. Jack Cassidy, from the Airplane and Hot Tuna, should be in the top 10, but he’s not even on the list! John Entwistle deserves No. Gold Supporters see zero ads! No Dennis Dunaway??? Couldn’t agree more, I think John Deacon should be on the list, he wrote & played some of the most well known & recognisable riffs. Check out the Lyrics on John’s song about him called, “How do You Live With Yourself.” Also, his Post-Beatle songs were pathetic, like: “The Girl is Mine” (a duet with Michael Jackson) and “You Think People Would Have Had Enough With Silly Little Love Songs” and the list goes on and on—real R&R ha,ha. you seriously underrated him. Is this is list of the MOST FAMOUS bass players or the ACTUALLY BEST bass players? Uhhhmm…..no Mick Karn???!!! They all sounds awesome on their bass guitar. All of which are deserving to be on the list and that’s just the rock guys. this list ain’t worth squat without jack. and the other one is Pedro Aznar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xKfAjUggeE. Yeah, Jack Cassidy too. All great players on the list, regardless of ranking. As I got older I really came to admire Lee Sklar and John McVie for their solid few-frills bottom end. What about Randy Jackson, Skeet Curtis Bill Dickens. And he was loud; throwing the bass upfront like few before him. & there’s much more. Trevor Bolder, Joey De Maio, Jimmy Bain, Rob Trujillo, Jason Newsted…. Phelix Paplardi,, outstanding bass man with one of the few 3 piece giants Mountain and producer for Cream. If someone has been left off, so what? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TesEEKKAD3Y, I miss Greg Ridley (Spooky Tooth, Humble Pie), Percy Jones (Brand X), Ronnie Lane (Faces), Jeff Berlin (Bruford)…. I guess it all depends on what the individual wants in music, and what they actually hear. but for me steve harris remain no.1. Agree D.E. Seeing a lot of those names on the list and names in the comments brought back many good memories. However I do not think his tone and sound has aged very well. Along with her husband and eternal rhythm partner, Chris Frantz, Tina Weymouth was largely responsible for infusing new wave with the concept of groove as one of the founding members of Talking Heads. I’m wondering if the people who voted have the slightest idea of what’s corresponding to the bass traclk when they listen to a record… Ridiculous. Your email address will not be published. You got #1 and 2 correct. Colin Hodgkinson. That guy is a monster on bass. I dont expect Metalheads, Punks and others to understand just how great he was as you all were not around to see his genius in the mid-fifties and how essential he was to the Elvis/R’n’R/Rockabilly sound. Or stalwarts if you prefer. Get real. With Bela Fleck and as a solo artist, Victor Wooten took the Stanley Clarke style of fusion bass and upped the ante with more sounds, more flash and a more daring style. All these comments, and no mention of the late, great Helmut Koellen of Triumvirat, my favourite bassist, who puts the “awe” in awesome! Think we’ve missed anyone off our list of the best bassists of all time? Seriously? As one of the greatest female bassists of all time – and just bassists, period – Weymouth is part of the reason why a group of cerebral East Coast art students were able to do the definitive cover version of an Al Green’s ‘Take Me To The River’. She is very high on my list as well. Jamerson for example, influenced many of the players listed above him. Alex Webster-Cannibal Corpse I like Geddy but I still think Entwistle is a little better and that’s not a knock on Geddy Lee by any means but Entwistle…some of these people on this list couldn’t even carry his bass. Dude what the ever loving fuck! He writes most if not all Lyrics, most tunes, Self taught, Creates the claymation videos, Lead Singer and makes the bass the primary instrumental. My brother Bob Kibler, was one of the finest bass guitar players of all times. I have always been a big fan of bass players and when I say this listing I had to go down the list. …enough said. Your email address will not be published. And James Dewar. Dont forget the STYLE of the bass player is very important. And if you want power and melody, Bruce Foxton from the Jam is a notable exception, much better than Sting. Phil was faithful to his 'Big Brown' bass in the '70s, alongside the Alembic bass that shows up in the Grateful Dead Movie. Felix Pappalardi inspired me to pick up the bass. Same with Jack Casady and Ron Carter. I saw him live, and was a real master on the bass. I scanned through the list, finding almost everyone I thought should be on here. So for example how about As part of Elvis’ original trio (which didn’t include drums during the Sun Records stage), Bill Black brought the essential cool of a slapback bass into 50s rock’n’roll. Her bass-work is sublime. It’s ridiculous to say that one guy is better than another if he’s expressing himself though the art of music. There are sooooo many good ones, and each one has their gifts: Michael Anthony, Flea, Bill Leen of the Gin Blossoms, John Lodge, Fran Sheehan, Ross Valory, Geddy Lee. Where´s Mel Schaher? i don´t see Trevor Horn there, is this because he his better producer? Greg Ridley’s Spooky Tooth contributions all appreciated. Paul McCartney ranks higher than Jaco Pastorius????? Perhaps the most versatile bass played in all of prog rock, John Wetton could do the blazing virtuosity of Larks Tongues-era King Crimson as well as the song-oriented approach of Asia. Deal with the Funk Justin Meldal-Johnsen (JMJ)…is certainly a force, Norman Watt-Roy from the Blockheads…. Everyone posting wants their favourite on the list, which contains great technicians and great innovators. The title says it all. LEMMY? I could name a dozen who belong on this list, as have others, BUT, not including Tim Bogart??? Sounds like your judges are a bit insular. It looks like there was another Jay that posted at almost the same time, but I have to agree with the first Jay and also include Rick Danko on the list. Still on the jazz side, I’ve heard Milt Hinton do acoustic slap bass like none on the electric side. I believe there are tons of great bass player all over the world better than the 50 on list, but are they popular? Just adding my two cents: I think Pekka Pohjola, John G. Perry, Frank Fischer,Stu Hamm, Robbie Shakespeare, Bill Rea should all be on the list somewhere. Cream? You forgot Mani from the Stone Roses and Peter Hook from New Order. Great singer too…I played with him on gigs and recordings too…maybe not as famous as above..but there are great unknowns too..check out Yellow Balloon, Devil Rides Out, You’re in Life…I played many USA bases with Glyn…a pia no/ bass duo….rock, heavy metal, classic, pop, funk, jazz….whatever I played..Glyn was there…had the yanks stomping….halcyon days! Kudos on your 50 Best Bassists list. Where are Lee Jackson, Janick Top,Jamaaladeen Tacuma, John Greaves, Rocketry Morton? Peter “Mars” Cowling could teach ’em all. Jack is on the list at #23. Phil Lesh And Friends ‎– Live At The Warfield Label: Relix Records ‎– 88697006719, Image Entertainment ‎– 88697006719 List by popularity or talent I’m not sure. At least you got the #1 correct! Oh man ..you missed a lot, to name a few.. Richard Bona, John Patitucci, Jimmy Haslip, Stanley Clarke, Christian McBride, Gary Willis, Sean Malone, Esparanza Spalding, Avishai Cohen …….it’s impossible ……………. If we are gonna be ridiculous, we might as well put Danny Partridge in here as well!! He is a songwriter who happens to play bass. Jaco should be in first place. You can see how prominent his playing is; Outside of the angelic voiced Annie Haslem, Jon Camp is the only other player out front. Listen to albums Main Course, Children of the World, and, yes, Saturday Night Fever. Also should include an honerable mention list for those not quite at the list but instantly recognizable. This gorgeous Phil Lesh Alembic Miniature Bass has the finest details and highest quality you will find anywhere! Pooooooooor!!! Big Thanks! Just repeat this sentence if you can. Bob Glaub deserves to be on this list. And to have Jaco Pastorius as #1 is plain silly. Haahahaha Roger Waters better than Charles Mingus hauahauhauhauahauhauhaa!!!!! How can anyone say Sting is a better bass player than Roger Glover? No Greg Ridley???? Absolutely right! Jack was incredible. Andy Fraser, Greg Ridley…but without doubt the biggest omission is Peter Hook from New Order. And I’m disappointed that I didn’t make the list 🙁, And, of course completely forgotten, on Number 1A: Robbie Shakespeare! Where’s Doug Wimbish?! It’s a POLL OF POLLS people!!!!! ! Gerry McAvoy from Rory Gallagher’s band, Dee Murray from Elton John’s band, Rick Richards from The Georgia Satellites – how can you only choose 50? Geddy Lee and Chris Squire can play everything the rest of the guys on the list play. My criteria is not as studied as many of the responses, just probably just fandom that guides me. How could Jaco not be amongst the top ten? Jaco Pastorius and Stanley Clarke could run circles around any of the top 10, same with Mingus, Dave Holland, Ron Carter, Scott Lafaro, etc. Kim Gordon’s instantly recognisable bass sound was one of three equal reasons why Sonic Youth were among the most innovative guitar bands of the past few decades. As was so often the case, the centerpiece of this show was the big jam in the second set, which kicked off with a beautiful “Dark Star”. And I like apples better than oranges… except when I don’t. !, Larry Taylor, Canned Heat, John May all, etc!!! one what? He’s better than all of them!! Where’s Gregg Lake ? How about Fernando Saunders who played lead bass (no other way to describe it) with Lou Reed’s band? George and Ringo agreed too and they were right there. Not many people could have battle sessions with “GOD” like he did.. R.I.P. Where’s Norman Watt Roy? There are sooooo many great players …………too many to mention. McCartney not Top 10 and probably not Top 50. But he earns immortality for doing both at once with Roxy Music, especially on the live album Viva!. Ray Shulman Wow, you certainly hit a few sore spots with some individuals. Sklar at 49 und Dunn at 47 ? And Leo Lyons. I agree Page. What about the bombastic bass playing on what I consider to be one of the most energetic live albums ever, Grand Funk Live Album, witch features Mel Schacher on bass? And Peter Albin. 1. But I’ll beat the brakes off of some of these on this list. For the Byrds, the Burritos, Manassas and his own solo and Country career, Chris’ bass chops are incredible. Please stop trying to promote a roster of the best of when most readers know there will always be a missed nominee. Good list but there’s a couple i’d put in they would be Gary Thain and Tal Wilkenfeld. Where’s Jeff Becks right hand girl Tal Wilkenfeld?? Billy Sheehan – No.22? Still 50% is a FAIL! I have just committed the greatest sin— I have failed to place THE LATE GREAT JACK BRUCE, as one of the best,if not the best Bassist/ Vocalists of all time in the above mentioned list. No Glenn Hughes, and Paul McCartney Top 10. Like was mentioned, Paul really didn’t want to be a bass player, he just got assigned the role after Stu Sutcliffe, who couldn’t play bass, by the way, left the band in 61. Looking for more? Jerry Scheff should be there. He should be in the top 25 at the very least. and no Charlie Haden is a travesty. Have you not seen Tal Wilkenfeld play with Jeff Beck? Looks more like a list on how popular the band is, not the quality of the player. Not Palladino! To have Mingus and Charlie Haden behind Paul McCarthey is – with all due respect – a joke, and not even a funny one. What she can’t do with a Bass Guitar. This list is a joke !!! The only reason McCartney is rated as high as he is (like some of the others) is because of profile. P.S. No Felix Pappalardi? Everyone else tied for 3rd. Lee Sklar at 49? One issue is the improvisatory nature of the Grateful Dead’s music. Nobody mentioned Andy West of the Dixie Dregs… Until now? Grateful Dead Phil Lesh T Shirt by Dye The Sky. He also scored a number of 70s hits with his brother George as part of The Brothers Johnson. BUT, Prince’s new bassist, Ida Kristine Nielsen of 3rd Eye Girl (and NPG) is the best “newcomer” since Tal Wilkenfeld. ADDRESSES: Agent—c/o Little, Brown & Company, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020.. CAREER: Musician. Not to mention Paul McCartney better than Jaco… Do you know anything about music? Check him out. I’m not claiming to be the best in the world. There’s no point arguing about the names, only the order and the omissions. Where is Jet Harris the guy presented with a bass guitar from Fender for doing more to introduce the bass guitar to the UK and Europe etc than any other musician. Chris White (Zombies) $22.99 $ 22. Tina Weymouth? tony reeves greenslade was a good classy bass player. Who did the riffs we all remember or we recognize just few notes? Chris Squire is easily top five. “Mule” Listen to the song “Angel Eyes” the ending in particular is AWSOME.
