Steve Harris deserves FAR more respect then he gets, anywhere he's not only a superiror bassist in metal, but for any type of music, for that matter...

i agree, jaco is so fast when he plays, when i first heard him, i thought i was listening to a synthesizer.

also flea is an awesome funk bassist. definately the best.

Agreed. I listed him as one of my favourites. he's very talented and Maiden are a great band

I hear the guy from Rancid is actually really talented.

Cliff Burton will melt your face, in my opinion, he is the reason that Metal is as high end as it is, well, at least 1/3rd the reason.

Dave Allen, Peter Hook, Matt Safer.

Flea mebbe? I don't know really. Twiggy Ramirez is pretty good.

Geddy Lee

Matt Freeman (Rancid) is a good punk bassist. I wouldn't say he's amazing though. Listen to the bass solo in Maxwell Murder for a taste.
