My #1 is actually a tie between John Entwistle (sp?) and Chris Squire. Close behind are Greg Lake and the late Gary Thain (of early Uriah Heep). Entwistle is fine. I don't care for Squire or Lake. My personal favorites are Mark Boston ( Rockette Morton of Captain Beefheart fame ), Eric Drew Feldman, Roy Estrada, and George Scott ( Raybeats, 8 Eyed Spy, Contortions, - he's been dead for a few years, but he was great while he was around ).
