tredders Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Apologies if this has already been posted, but I stumbled across this: - [url="http://www.musicradar.com/news/guitars/30-amazing-unsung-bassists-in-no-particular-order-286816#content"]Click here![/url] It's a list of their 30 'amazing unsung bassists' with sound clips to examples of their playing. It just helped pass 30 minutes of an otherwise dull day! Cheers Tredders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mykesbass Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Rant Alert........ Only gone through the first few as my blood was starting to boil, and I've decided (early New Year resolution) to stop being a grumpy old man, BUT, most of these are NOT unsung - prime examples Bernard Edwards and Duck Dunn!!!!!!!! OK, I'll accept Tommy Cogbill being unsung, but what a lack of thought by the compilers. Oh, and no Tony Goggle Rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbass Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Geezer Butler!?!!!?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hector Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Of course there are thousands of unsung heroes of the bass world, but I do feel maybe Bobby Vega ought to get a mention. That guy GROOVES. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbass4k Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I agree with that far more than their 25 best bassists thing, some very good choices there (Matt Freeman) but Geezer Butler? Not exactluy unsung, he was on the 25 greatest list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHUFC BASS Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I wouldn't pay too much heed to these polls. They are largely irrelevant and attempt to measure the immeasurable. Its a bit like having a poll on which fruit is the best tasting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doddy Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Another waste of time and bandwidth provided by Music Radar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
