John Entwisle of The Who John Paul Jones of Zeppelin Jack Bruce of Cream Mike Rutherford of Genesis and last but not least.... Chris Squire of the band YES. ![[image loading]](http://yesmuseum.org/images/ChrisCircus-Sept76.JPG) Squire took Mcartney's "front of the mix" melodic style to a whole new level. Consult the following YES albums for reference: Time and a Word Yes Album Fragile Close to the Edge Relayer Going for the One Tormato Drama 90125 ~1974 ~1980 | ||

YES omg finally someone agrees with me, I think he is one of the best bassists around and nobody think so. | ||

Gotta love every member of Tool, that band is just so close to perfection... Chancellor is amazing indeed, Danny Carey has been my favourite drummer for a long time, Keenan one of the best singers ever and Jones, while far from being a guitar god does just so many brilliant things with his sounds I guess I got a bit off topic, that vid was disturbing as fuck, kinda confusing to see that that guy is actually really good. Really funny at the same time though, I always like your humor, Doctor. | ||
