Vote for your favorite bassists of all-time.
You can vote for 3 bassists.
This will be a floating poll, meaning that if an entrant does not receive any votes, they will be replaced and you can re-vote by clicking "cancel vote" at the bottom of the entry list at any time as often as you like.
This poll has no time limit.

That's known as the "supy" rule. It keeps troublemakers at bay.
You should be able to post links now.

I voted Claypool because he's ridiculous and Entwhistle because he was a game-changer.
No Victor Wooten?

I'd also like to see Doug Pinnick from King's X, and Mike Porcaro from Toto on this list.

What kind of "Greatest Bassist of All Time" list doesn't include Jaco Pastorius or Stanley Clarke?
