There's a point where being the technically best at a particular instrument is not enough to be the best. You also need to have tone and tastefulness.

Jack Bruce has all of that.

I agree. I wasn't refuting anyone's picks itt. Just making a statement.

look at these kids! They don't know what a good bass player sounds like unless it hits them.

.The only people that listen to the beatles in this day and age are non musicians. That includes people who play an instrument like shit.

I prefer Geddy Lee.

Interesting that you know what people like on reddit...
Not really.

he was mentioned in the third post

Ouch no, make it stop. You're just too cool for us. The edge is real.

If you play an instrument you fall into the second half of my statement, if not you proved me right before my comma.

Whatever you say. There's nothing revolutionary abouth 7th chords and changing to a relative key. Intoxicated jazz players were doing that decades before for fun. Pop music is and akwyas will be pop music, something to feed to the masses that gives them unwsrrsnted selfni m portance because they can relate to it.

So you're some old fuck that was impressed by tv in the 70s? Good for you, glowing lights have that effect on people.

i'm still better than you

It's passed your bedtime Jr
Actual musicologists think otherwise.

Whenever this question is asked, people just post a random selection of the top ~25 most well known bassists/musicians in popular culture. There are literally thousands of rock bassists in lesser known bands who are objectively better musicians than half the meme rockstars in this thread

>objectively
ok moron

It's nice to have pride, even when you can't back it up. Having a good self image is important to a lot of people.

youtu.be/Yn_u78Ye_58

Jack Bruce is better than whatever obscure moron you suck off.

Jeff ament has an awesome sound. Best part of pearl jam is that tone

>musicologists
Falls in the same category as audiophile, people that think they hear things but they actually don't.

no, i am quantifiably superior to you.

I bet you think Music Theory kills creativity.

stop talking about the fucking beatles

No, he's obviously a theoryfag.

Quantifiable? The only way that could be quantified is if you could run run scales to a metronome faster than me, which is hardly real music. Like The Beatles.

roger waters IS an awful musician though

If he did, he would understand the impressive harmonic language of The Beatles

Awful in relation to what?

The Beatles had neither

>which is hardly real music.
What is real music?

this thread went to shit real quick

bill wyman

Nice projecting

god directly told me that i am better than you. is that quantified enough?

Les Chadpool will make it better

Falls sonewhere between wank and trash made to be consumed. Si most hinhs you haven't heard.

Bill Wyman is awful in relation to Jaco Pastorius. Your point? Saying someone is awful even though they're clearly competent enough to play in their particular band is asinine.

roger waters was not competent enough to play in pink floyd. he held them back.

Proof?

>Si most hinhs
What

u so smart

The fact that this has no replies yet shows how little Yea Forums appreciates serious talent

pink floyd albums

Just goes to show you that technical ability doesn't necessarily make it good music

He's a good bassist, but Yes sucks.

>writes their four best-selling albums
>when he leaves, they put out two shit-tier albums and never recover
>"he held them back"

>sales=quality
you're almost as dumb as roger waters

What's wrong with the bass on them, specifically?

You should actually know what (buzz)words mean before using them. I know this is an anonymous safe space but I'd still feel embarrassed if I was you.

Can you prove there is a god? You'd probably have an easier time with that rather than proving the beatles were good musicians.

Good argument.

it's poopoo doodoo trash

Why would someone buy it if they didn't emotionally connect to it?

You are not smart

Sorry, I'm too busy making a double bass thread... you know, an Instrument that actually takes skill.

>Can you prove there is a god?
yes. in three months your mother will be raped by seven large black men. this was foretold by me, and will be an act of god.

I was being creative by using words most people use and slightly changing them. Can I undeservingly praised now?

Psychological projection is a defence mechanism in which the human ego defends itself against unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.[1] For example, a person who is habitually rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. It incorporates blame shifting.

Sort of like when you said The beatles didn't know theory and were not creative, when in fact you were just describing yourself

For me it’s Vern

You are just being retarded

Also are you the same guy shitting on Roger Waters?

Wrong. That happened last night, me and my boys hit the dust a little too hard.

How else should good music be measured?

no it didn't. i know you are lying because god told me so. send pics of her bruised puss or i will be certain you are lying.

So, very small increments then?

Mine is at least a foot longer than yours. I can prove it.

>Sort of like when you said The beatles didn't know theory and were not creative, when in fact you were just describing yourself
I implied that, I never said that. Are you that insecure while protecting your false prophets you jump to cpnclussions at the drop of a hair? I thinknright now that you're projectibg that the beatles were great as protection so people won't look at you and realize you're anything but great.

that doesn't make sense since my dick is ginormous.

are you posting on your phone, by any chance?

What are you even doing. Why are you shitposting

I didn't take pics, that's evidence bro abd you never create evidence.

I'm posting drunk as fuck right now. I really don't give a shit about the beatles one way or another. I started getting some lulz and you guys let me roll with it.

See above.

Night bitches, the monkees were better

>I didn't take pics, that's evidence bro abd you never create evidence.
you have no evidence because it did not happen. god told me so.

I can come fuck your mom next and show you how i did it. I neef some ruuber bands and a seat belt. I wouldn't be opposed to you taking her place ;o

do it. i invite you to. you won't though, because god has not ordained it.

Let me talk to the big man. His dick covers the earth but mine could black out the solar system. Get it? Black.

Didn't read the thread but I like Mick Karn of the band Japan.

This is sometimes unusual for bassists. But all 3 of them contributed heavily to the song-writing process of their respective bands. Usually bassists make the sandwiches and get mixed in after the fact.

exactly???
