Soooo many good bassists. Shameful of me to drop a few names like that and exclude others. Of course, it is my heaven, so I get to pick.

When I get to heaven, Les Claypool will be jamming with Victor Wooten and Phil Lesh. Jaco Pastorius might be allowed to sit in on occasion.

In my 15 or so years of professional concert production, on thing I've learned above all else is that nothing clears a room faster than a bass solo.

What about Geddy Lee? Or Billy Sheehan? Victor Wooten? Jean Baudin? Larry Graham? Louis Johnson? Norwood Fisher? Flea? Les Claypool? Mick Karn?


Thank you for helping me prove my point.

If you're a bassist, there are not many folks more inspirational than Geddy Lee!

Gotta ask: have you ever seen Gov't Mule's "Rising Low" DVD? After their bassist, Allen Woody, died, Warren Haynes (my hero started a tribute project, during which he gathered some of the best bass players in the world together to play Allen Woody's Gov't Mule parts, as well as their own signature pieces, live and on a tribute album. The result was "The Deep End" (a 2 volume CD set) and "Rising Low" (a DVD capturing the making of the CDs, and the resulting tour): http://www.mule.net/discography/rising_low.html

Here's the list of bassists on the DVD / CDs: Allen Woody, Alphonso Johnson, Bootsy Collins, Billy Cox, Chris Squire, Chris Wood, Dave Schools, Flea, George Porter Jr., Jack Bruce, Jack Casady, Joey Arkenstat, John Entwistle, Terry Graham, Les Claypool, Meshell Ndegeocello, Mike Gordon, Mike Watt, Oteil Burbridge, Phil Lesh, Rocco Prestia, Roger Glover, Stefan Lessard, Tony Levin, Willie Weeks
