James Jamerson, Jaco Pastorius, Bernard Edwards, Bootsy Collins, Paul Chambers, Ron Carter.... and although it wasn’t his primary instrument, Jimi Hendrix could shred most rock bassists under the table. I’ve seen Stanley Clarke many times, but not in the past 25 years. He was pretty spectacular.
Edit: And how did I forget Miroslav Vitouš??? I’m sure there are many other great ones I can’t remember right now.
James Jamerson. Guarantee every ferner woulda heard his smooth grooves on at least one song given how awesome ( and prolific ) he was.
For all the hits he played on, he might be one of the least recognized big-name bandleaders in popular music history. Smokey Robinson was primarily responsible for the direction of the Motown style, but Jamerson gave them their sound. He’s amazing.

@salacious-crumb I guess if we’re going to talk about influence we should be throwing Carol Kaye into the mix as well SC. I remember being blown away that the woman who played on the Beach Boys biggest hits and River Deep, Mountain High was also on the Mission Impossible theme and a member of Zappa’s Mothers. Check out the listings on her website: https://www.carolkaye.com/www/library/basshits.htm

I guess I should post the list of 2018 gigs - a relatively quiet year...
- The Yeah Yeah Yeahs (only a couple of songs, as I'd double-booked, and then had to hurry onwards to the next item on the list...)
The Rolling Stones
Future Islands, Cat Power, The National
Nadine Shah, Lorde, The xx
Sylvan Esso, Father John Misty, Beck, Bjork
The National
The Black Lips, Courtney Barnett, St Vincent, Patti Smith, Nick Cave
Death Cab for Cutie
Low
The Naked and Famous
The Gaslight Anthem
Phoebe Bridgers
Jose Gonzalez
I also had tickets for a couple more, but missed them...
- Nine Inch Nails - more than a little gutted I forgot about this until it was too late
Marlon Williams - simply couldn't be arsed that night
Nick Cave was as good as ever... and had Kylie Minogue out for Where the Wild Roses Grow... the farking reaction of the british when that happened... absolutely mental. Never seen so many hipsters and the such absolutely lose their shit for a pop singer.
The Stones - I was a little underwhelmed... but never really been a big fan. - The Yeah Yeah Yeahs (only a couple of songs, as I'd double-booked, and then had to hurry onwards to the next item on the list...)
