LOL
Nice try, but I nulled my vote because I can't even think about those guys being the top couple of bassists, and you had no other option.
If you had some better options I'd go for one of them.
Claypool is good, however.
Not my favourite, though.

You might not like Claypool that much... Until you've heard him play live...

Seriously, RedZep, some of the solos he busts out live are really classic rock-ish. You'd probably like them.

My thinking has progressed so far that I forgot there even was a box.
What's a bassist?

I am operating at such a level that

What's a box?


Seriously though, I didn't like Primus that much until I saw them live. I almost peed my pants. Les Claypool is probably my favorite bassist. Ben Harper's is pretty good as well, he laid down a pretty solid bass line and could change from rock to merengue to crazy funktastic groovadelic love music in a split second. Regrettably, I don't know his name.

He's in Korn, and Korn is a big joke in the history of music.

What's so good about him?

All Fieldy does is tune down his low B and smack it against his frets. It just sounds like *clank, clank*.

He could at least play some slap and do it right, maybe actually make a sound come out.
