From what I can find Flea doesn't appear on any Fear records. He might be the most overrated musician ever.

Flea is a better musician than those whackoffs but the praise he gets including Rolling Stone declaring Flea the second greatest bassist EVER.

A strain called "seeing through the gimmick."

Tbh I was wondering who MB's secret VW fan would be.

I've never actually heard a Victor Wooten album and I don't consider myself a fan. I just saw him with a few friends and the dude can play a f*cking bass man.

He doesn't have any soul and if you look past the tap gimmick, he's isn't even as impressive as any 19 year old you'll find in a standard jazz musician's Tuesday night backing band. Mother****er played NAMM a few times and everyone decided that he was the be-all-end-all of jazz bass when the dude does nothing that's impressive for more than five seconds. Dude might as well be Dragonforce.

He couldn't be a nicer person. This has value. I enjoyed his performance. This was like nine years ago. Haven't listened to much since but YOU BE NICER.

He just played live for a period of time. Overrated, sure, but he seems like a nice guy with a sense of humor that is very competent at his instrument, and I can't fault him for that.
