Maybe one of the greatest cases of an overlooked and underappreciated musician is that of Jason Newstead the former bass player for Metallica. The man was never allowed to live up to his full potential in the band and was basically forced to paint by number all of the parts that the rest of the band wrote for him. He could have seriously saved Metallica from being the mediocre band that they ended up becoming if only they had given him a little creative leeway.
