    I think Flea is ok, but he can't beat Chris Squire, Jaco and Geddy. Muse is only about catchy bass lines, they don't focus on bass performance.

    Ryan Martinie should have been at least top 10. But this is your list and I respect that

    Very good job trying to cover a world of music in 100 places.. In reality there will be hundreds more that someone will say 'should have been there!'. I personally really appreciate Iron Maiden's Blood On The World's hands. always thought that tune is heavily overlooked for many reasons, including the bass intro.
