Tied with Bootsy Collins as my favorite bass player. Larry Graham. I'm going to have to throw some Sly songs on here later.

Being a bass player myself John Paul Jones from Zeppelin, John Entwistle from The Who, Bootsy Collins from the P-funk family , Larry Graham from Sly and the family Stone and Paul McCarthy were my absolute idols of the bass.
