Rayman Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 [quote name='simon1964' post='313123' date='Oct 23 2008, 05:15 PM']But very pleased Colin Moulding has had a vote above - he would be number 4 and is very underrated IMO[/quote] Ditto. XTC are pound for pound the best band the UK has ever produced. IMO of course. Colin and JJ are the reason I started playing in the early 80s. Quote
DirkThrust Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Bruce Foxton - The Jam James Jamerson - No explanation needed Mike Rutherford - Genesis before they went pop [quote name='kennyrodg' post='313086' date='Oct 23 2008, 04:37 PM']3 marlowe dk [/quote] I don't think you're taking the P This guy is absolutely astonishing. I've only seen him doing covers on you tube but he just nails the groove so well and his technique and timing is an education. Quote

OutToPlayJazz Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 1. Victor Wooten 2. Tal Wilkenfeld 3. Hadrian Feraud As Stanley Clarke said in a recent interview, Victor Wooten is the most complete player on the planet. Tal Wilkenfled has just the most gorgeous feel & sound. Almost perfection without too much flashness. Hadrien Feraud has the most peerlessly seamless technique I've ever seen. Rich. Quote

Beedster Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Jamerson, Zender, Flea. Boring and predictable now perhaps, but all of them were innovators and cool as f**k. Feel guilty about Entwhistle but, with the exception of one ot two bits of magic, he's just too complex for the majority of the songs. Whereas Flea's, Zender's and Jamerson's lines made the songs, Entwhistle's detracted from them, Great technician but not a great musician... C Quote
