I find it funny how all you jazz lovers are sounding like you're the shit because you listen to it, and it makes me hate it more.

No, haha, and neither did I. But you're just as bad as that Pink Floyd The Division Bell dude mentioning it every three seconds. Jazz bassists are hardly worthy anyway, they just play your standard walks that all sound so boring and repetitive. Hardly even worth the mention.

Dude Dean have you ever LISTENED to jazz music. It may not be your thing that's fine, but those are some of the most talented musicians you'll ever hear.
My friends call me Keith, but you can call me John.

Most jazz doesn't have vocals either, so the instruments have to be top-notch, right? And it works! There are some seriously amazing jazz musicians out there. I heard a jazz cover of Pinball Wizard just now, it was really good.

I mean, if you play like me, you had better have your own band. Nobody wants that amount of participation from a bass player.

Totally Bill Wyman.

McCartney's too sissy-boy. I know he did the drugs and the women and is mroe of a man than I'll ever be, but his image is still too sissy. The pretty-boy with the cute face who hangs out with the Queen and does music for the Rupert cartoon, you know, the bear.

Bill Wyman was with the Rolling Stones a long time, and though never prominent, he seemed to be the cool one in the back, the guy with the stone face.

Not to mention Mandy Smith - can anybody say LIVING THE DREAM!

Wyman's just cool, period. And how can you not like "In Another Land"? That song practically sums up psychedelia.
Genius at work.

Does someone being "too sissy" really have an impact on your favorite musical artists?

Haha, thats a generalisation if I ever heard one, couldn't be more wrong. I suppose there is some truth in it when talking about bass players in traditional big bands but by the 40s they'd be taking solo breaks for a chorus or so.

Mingus I wouldn't vote for but he'd have to be one of my favourite acoustic bass players (very powerful tone and his walking range was like 3 octaves). The reason I idolise him is for his composing abilities.

Pastorius, however, that's another story. One of, if not THE most important bass player ever. I have nothing more to say than get his self titled album.

Or listen to this: http://www.sendspace.com/file/44vhbd

I didn't even know a bass guitar could do that, hypnotizing stuff.
