No list would be complete without Mick Karn of Japan and at least one reggae bassist (preferably Robbie Shakespeare or Boris Gardiner).

Hooky's certainly unique, but his stuff is easy to play. Putting him #1 is laughable.

genuinely kill yourself

Is it bad because it's simple. I say no. He's a great bassist because his stuff is recognisable and it is a vital aspect to every song he plays on. New Order/Joy Division would not sound as they did without Hooky

Burton was just a good bassist, but he's so overrated. He just play guitarish solos on a bass. Never on top 10. Newsteed and Trujillo are way more technical and professional

I'm not disagreeing, but there's no way he can be considered the #1 bassist ever.

I can think of several. Paul McCartney, John Entwistle, Chris Squire and Les Claypool all immediately come to mind.
