Ok me and a few of my friends have a debate going on. We are trying to decide who is the best bass player of all time. Is is Flea(Red Hot Chilli Peppers) or is it Les Claypool (Primus) or Matt freeman(Rancid). All are awesome. I say Flea, but some of my friends say Les Claypool, and some say Matt Freeman. What do you guys think.

This is Les Claypool

I know you yutes have heard of the Who? Flea is my pic of your choices.

 

Man that guy can play also. I have never even herd of this guy, but that is some awesome bass playing. I still like flea's style tho. None the less great bassest.

 

matt freeman hands down. hes what gave rancid their signiture sound, beside tim's raspy voice.

 

I always felt Geddy Lee from RUSH was one of the best

 

what about the guy from Rage?

 

Bill I agree, John is Awesome, to bad he isn't with us anymore.
I have seen the WHO 5 times.
Love them

Tom Morello's a badass but he doesnt play the bass.

No ones got **** on Tom Morello he is just so creative with the sounds he can make with his guitar any decent player can hit a good riff

He is one of the main reasons I love Rage and Audioslave
