Some of my favorite bass players are,

Cliff Burton

Geezer Butler

That dude from tool sure throws down a mean riff also for what they do

Robert Trujillo for that heavy funk when he did INfectious Grooves

Dusty Hill

Allen Woody Bigtime love him Godbless his soul

Roger Glover has some cool driving riffs.

Roy Porter Junior? awesome personality and vibe on stage with the mule.

All worth a mention in my books, but Cliff Burton gets the trophy for me

Orion is just about my favorite song in the world. It's an instrumental my the older metallica when Cliff was alive, and it's just amazing.

Flea is phenominal just not my favorite. But he sure is great and love is bass lines. I am sure I am missing some but that's all I got for now, and you said the best. That goes' to Cliff.

Unless mistaken, I never read Michael Manring in previous post. Amazing musician, exceptionnal technical skill and extremely melodic.

I really like Victor Wooten also (great with Bela and VTT), Alain Caron (from Uzeb, a master of the 6-string)......

Grew up with Geddy, brought me to play bass and through him I discovered Tons of great bassists :

Jaco

Christian McBride

Les Claypool

Flea

Steve Harris [not the best but I definitely like his sound and drive]

Charlie Haden

Dave Holland

John Patitucci

John Entwistle

Jamie Haslip

Stuart Zender (Jamiroquai's funky drive)

...

I fell I can write names all day... and even forget some at the end.

Finally, Gene Simmons, not for the thread topic but to bring my attention to rock bands thus discovering Rush later on...
