I wonder what it's like to play w/ the likes of Marcus. The kid on Sax looks like he just got pulled up from the minor leagues and he's like, "I'm on stage w/ who?" He done good though. | ||

I saw Victor at my local Calvin College. His brother Regi almost stole the show.  I'm a sucker for Kashmir and Regi Wooten nailed it. | |||

Check out Tal Wilkenfeld on YouTube. She has also played with Jeff Beck. She is also no slouch. _____________________________ "It does not require many words to speak the truth.".....Chief Joseph https://pbase.com/shellyva/image/171613535 | |||

Jaco Pastorius, he's one of my favorite jazz bassists. Growing up in the Miami jazz scene I heard him play several times in Coconut Grove in the 70's. Excellent musician and great guy! Here's one of my favorites from Weather Report in the 70's Regards, Will G. | |||

No argument with any bass players listed. I’ve got several favorites: the great John Entwhistle, Conrad Lozano, Flea, Phil Lesh, and Michael Rhodes. Listen to “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” on headphones, McCartney is a phenomenal bass player. _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

add to that the bassist (cannot remember her name) That played with Bowie in the 90's Tony Levin, Julie Slick (plays with Adrian Belew) Pino Pallidino, just a few https://chandlersfirearms.com/chesterfield-armament/ | |||

| Partial dichotomy |
Don't forget our own para! McCartney is underrated for sure and I also have to mention Chris Squire (thinking the beginning of Heart of the Sunrise) Entwistle on The Real Me. So many great artists.

Keeping in mind how inventive a number of players, like Entwhistle were. Build his own initial guitars and he and guys like him invented new ways to play. _________________________ NRA Endowment Member _________________________ "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

Add Chris Squire to that list and then Geddy Lee took their influence and brought it to Rush. The three of them brought the bass guitar to the forefront as a lead instrument rather than something buried in the background by the drummer just playing bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum bum bum bum bum-bum-bum-bum and on and on and on. "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D.

Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Bass guitar as a lead instrument? I think of Phil Lesh _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

You guys are giving me some good stuff to line up, thanks. To show my ignorance, a few days back two-two-niner-romeo posted an interview w/ Pat Metheny. I never knew Pat and Jaco had played together. \mind blown/ Currently I'm still getting better acquainted w/ Marcus. I heard this on the radio for the first a few years back. Blew me away as it wasn't that other guy. | |||

I met Victor Wooten at a drum clinic put on by Dennis Chambers back around 1995. Super nice guy and he absolutely blew me away. He also had the most...assertive...handshake I've ever experienced. | |||

He was a lead guitarist before he played bass. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Yidn, shreibt un fershreibt" "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them.
