Most of the people mentioned are really cool.

I really love these rock bassplayers:
-Andy Rourke of The Smiths
-John Deacon of Queen
-Bruce Foxton of The Jam

Amazing players, powerful yet melodic - bass genius!

John Entwistle and Sir Paul!! 8) 8)
Also the bass player that played on almost all of the Mo-town songs. Somebody help me out with his name! :oops: He is a white man. I know you know who I'm talking about Miami Mike!

Sorry, I know the OP was asking about Rock Players so I'll add Flea in the mix! :oops: 8)

Andy Rourke


Those who know his music and style will agree... some of the best and creative bass lines in modern music. Usually played a P Bass.
