Tim Cummerford is pretty dam good. I love the bass intro for Calm Like A Bomb' He's pretty impressive on both of RATM's albums I have.

Why does everyone rate this 'Flea' so much? I have By The Way and Californication, haven't noticed anything that makes me go wow. But he seems to be on top of everyones list. Just a genuine question as to why that is...Not having a dig or anything (I don't know too much about bass)

Oh yea I really liked Panteras bass player.

Actually Tim Cummerford is pretty damn good. Fleas gotta be my bass man. I would say Stuart Zender, former bassist for Jamiroquai but i'd be in the wrong forum.... oh well

Flea all the way

Flea is great, as well as claypool. Its a shame Entwhistle is dead.

Cliff Burton made all these others look like beginners.. His bass solo's were crazy.
