Top 17 Jazz bassists of all time ! ...(1) Beb Guerin; (2) Eberhard Weber; (3) Kiki Midorikawa (I.e. with Masahiko Togashi) (4) Peter Kowald, (5) Barre Phillips; (6) Dave Holland; (7) Ron Carter; (8) Cecil McBee; (9) Giorgio Buratti; (10) Barry Guy; (11) Reggie Workman; (12) Steve Rodby (i.e. Pat Metheny Group); (13) Stanley Clarke; (14) Jean Jacques Avenel; (15) Steve Swallow (16) Jenny Clarke (17) Charlie Haden- (my dumb opinion anyways- for what’s it worth). I’m sure I’m missing a lot of people, This list was done impromptu. The argument could be made that Ron Carter is #1 (he’s the godfather of bass and on the most albums). But this List is who I like the best in order. It would be impossible for you not to feel differently.
