02.15.10 | You got most of the essentials. But you need Jaco (Weather Report), Augury, Necrophagist, King Crimson. |

02.15.10 | il second augury, necrophagist and almost anything tony levin has done, especially with that chapman stick he uses, fucking dreamy stuff right there.
i also think jack bruce is underrated as a bassist. |

VicariousIntent
02.15.10 | GREAT list. I agree with a lot of these. Good calls on 1, 3, 11 and 13. Those are my favorites. But the whole list is really good. |
JWT155
02.15.10 | Lateralus and Aenema man, Justin Chamberlin is a beast. |
kygermo
02.15.10 | list could use some Angel Dust (Bill Gould is vastly underrated) and some P-Funk, prefferably Parliament if youre a bass guru. |
OllieS
02.15.10 | Unexpect is pretty cool. |
scotish
02.15.10 | U2 - under a blood red sky
no, really. live album too so it's even more awesome |
supertouchox2
02.15.10 | also if you like cynic check out Exivious, bassist and guitarist from them and stef broks from textures, i think anyway.
pretty sweet stuff, fusion metal. |
Emim
02.15.10 | You would have been bitch-slapped had you not included 3, 7 and 8.
I got a chance to play for a while with a pretty awesome bassist (I'm a drummer). We rocked it. |
DeafMetal
02.15.10 | Mic Todd from Coheed And Cambria also plays a mean bass. He often doesn't follow the guitar parts and has a unique style. |
BurningApollo
02.16.10 | Agreed Mic is an amazing bassist, and I love Cynic as well as Jack Bruce and between the buried and me, but idk if any of their albums would be considered good bass albums. I love all those bassists but the bass only seems to stand out in only a couple tracks. |
supertouchox2
02.16.10 | hm, the bass stands out on cynic, especially on focus.
but seriously, check out Exivious. |
BurningApollo
02.16.10 | I guess you're right. And I will check them out |
TheSpirit
02.16.10 | Some of these i don't think belong at all, but it's good to see Steve Harris getting some well deserved credit |
bungy
02.16.10 | You really hit some great bass albums dude. lol at 14. Claypool is always fun to listen to. |
jagride
02.16.10 | The Cows - Cunning Stunts
if you like slide bass |
sublimefan1991
02.17.10 | great call on #12 (sublime's 40 oz. to freedom). honestly, any of their albums could be on this list as eric wilson is godly. if you like sublime and dig their basslines i bet you'd really like the ones on operation ivy's "energy" or rancid's "...and out comes the wolves" (those two have the same bassist, matt freeman). |
Urinetrouble
02.17.10 | lacks rush , and unsane turn their bass up rea loud and it has good tone, and um... WHERES THE BOOMIN' BASS OF DR. DRE |
BurningApollo
02.17.10 | I was really thinking of putting Dre on there. and i'm sooo sorry people, i didn't put rush on there. Please get off my back lol |
