Greg Lake is certainly up there among my favorite bassists. Top 20 at least.
My favorite bassist is Tony Levin, but Squire is easly #2. |

That's the coolest thing i've ever heard in my (what now seems to be somewhat pathetic) life. I couldn't be more jealous of you. |

Favorite bassists: Levin, Squire, Bootsy, Flea, P McCartney, Wetton, Lee, JPJ, Entwistle, Watt, Geezer, Claypool, Deacon, Rutherford, Lake, Bruce, Lesh, Harris, Cox.
I'd also like to mention Kim Gordon, Tina Weymouth, Kim Deal, Belinda Butcher and D'arcy Wretzky. Cuz chick bassists are not only hot, where would alternative rock bands be without them? |

I only have one album (AMATEUR! ) 'The Yes Album' I think its their biggest. I bought it after hearing 'Yours Is No Disgrace' on Planetrock and it is excellent. I think they are very similar to Rush (of whom I have several albums). Also a mate has one called 'The Ladder' which I noticed wasnt on the list. Whats it like? Which one should i buy next?

I recommend Fragile and Close to the Edge, they're the most similar to The Yes Album and they're the more accessible of their prog material. If you like those then also check out Time & A Word, which was their second album and it's very underrated. |
