Here we are again with a list guaranteed to start another endless round of debate. So anyway, bassists are already the most underrated member of every band – it’s always about the frontman or the guitarist or the drummer. But in the world of bass, the following musicians have displayed exemplary mind-blowing skills but they still don’t get the cred...
Cliff Williams is a solid bassist and during his stint with AC/DC, he was a real bad ass. His playing is practically off-the-charts and he’s one of those musicians you just have to listen to live. He sounds great on record, that’s a given, but watching him do his thing in person is simply quite a surreal experience. With a career spanning five deca...
You have to be tone deaf to not appreciate Tina Weymouth. She knows how to groove and she gave the band the ‘funk’ that they needed. Also, here’s the thing – while she goes about her business (you know, displaying her insane chops), she dances while she’s at it. Yep, this lady’s pinky finger has more musicality than most bands we know today. In an ...
Okay so most people remember Tim Commerford as the guy who climbed the stage’s scaffolding during the MTV Video Music Awards in 2000 to protest Limp Bizkit’s win for Best Rock Video. While we understand his sentiments, it was still unnecessary which is why he was arrested and he ended up spending the night in jail. Yes, it’s pretty sad that most pe...
Colin Greenwood’s bass lines took Radiohead songs to another level. He’s neither flashy not excessively grand. He’s just there, in the background, and barely noticeable. It’s even relatively easy to take his presence for granted and it’s easier still to forget he’s there at all. But when you try to take apart the song, it will not sound the same wi...
Part of the reason why these bassists still don’t get enough credit and recognition is because they’re sandwiched between larger-than-life personalities in their band. Take Geezer Butler for example. He has the crazy and egoistic Ozzy Osbourne on one side who doesn’t mind going overboard as long as the spotlight remains on him and on the other side...
Alright, alright. Before you throw stuff at your screen, hear us out first. Paul McCartney gets enough recognition as a songwriter, singer and most of all, an artist. He’s a rock god and a living legend. However, as a bass player, he remains underrated. He’s an innovative and solid bassist and his bass lines were not only melodic but they seemed ef...
John Paul Jones shows us how the bass should be played. And the man may be more than fine being in the background of some of the most talented musicians to ever walk the earth but Led Zeppelin’s epic masterpieces won’t be the same without his bass lines. His bandmates are all extra flashy so of course, he’d be the least noticeable. His licks are am...
It’s pretty sad that even though James Jamerson has played in so many Motown Records hits, he remains underappreciated. Then again, he was uncredited for most of those tracks. We bet you already heard him play at least once even if you weren’t aware it was him all along. From Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On” and Stevie Wonder’s “For Once In My Life”...
He’s versatile and well-rounded – name it, he can play it. He’s a monster bassist that it almost feels unreal watching him. He’s innovative, imaginative and articulate. Some may find his technique and style a bit scary and intimidating but that’s just how he is. Sadly though, he’s often booted out of ‘best bassist’ lists which is just unfortunate. ...
