Who is more influential? Tommy Stinson or Pino Palladino?

I think that Mark King is better than both of them.

Robbie Shakespeare too.

Robbie Shakespeare too.

Sly and Robbie are just...immense.

Pino being in The Who doesn't hurt his cred.

Enough about these clowns - let's talk Cliff Williams. Excellent bassist.

A man who truly knows his... scales.

[Johnny Drama]

There's only one Cliff.

Nobody can follow John Entwhistle. If you ever listen to his bass lines separate from the music it's just fuckin' amazing how that shit fit the sound, it's weird, it's not like your usual baselines, simple and for the purposes of giving a piece some kind of depth, it's almost like he's soloing his way through the shit.

Not exactly breaking news. But to the guy's credit he must've shown them something for him to be chosen to fill those shoes.
