First I should admit that I haven't taken the time to read all the comments posted above, but after a quick scan I found the <em>Great</em> Tiran Porter (Doobie Brothers) seemed to be missing from the list. If someone did mention him, my apologies. Like everyone else, I love Geddy's playing, Jaco, Jeff Berlin, Paul McCartney, Stu Cook, and Paul Jackson. For some reason though, I never got the hype surrounding John Entwistle... and Lemmy? Sorry guys. 8) Hi everyone!
