The 10 Best Bassists in the World 2020

If I'd been on the poll list I'd have won, as I can accurately reproduce (*) not only all of Stanley Clarke's solos in the amazing "Schooldays", but I can do it while supping a pint of Jennings SneckLifter and scoffing a Tunnock's Teacake.

Look, let's just settle this now. Everyone knows that I'm the best bassist in the world, I mean I can play Smoke On The Water AND Seven Nation Army. My skills are limitless. 😋

But can you play both at same time. That's the sign of a great bassist, the ability to play numerous basslines simultaneously or even at the same time.  😂

I was once voted Best Bassist in my house. I was quite chuffed with that. I even presented myself with a nice hot coffee and choccie biscuit to celebrate. It was a close call tho as my wife voted for someone else 😂

Both at the same time? What are you some kind of wizardman? Surely only those who embrace the dark forces could perform such majesty!

I thought perhaps you were Darth binky_bass. 

I am a follower of such forces and have listened many many times to the great Demons and Wizards. I have reached those dizzy heights of being able to play 2 notes simultaneously and am studying to achieve full bass chords. Only then will i be able to enter the Kingdom of Madness and Carry on with my Wayward Son.
