Berry Oakley (original Allman Brothers bassist).

I would put a vote in for Tina Weymouth of Talking Heads

I think the best of these is Billy Sheehan. One that will soon be on everybody's list is Tal Wilkenfeld. She is an incredible talent and is coming on strong.

Why is my name not on this list?

The Poet · 06-09-2009, 03:23 PM

There's this hot-lookin' little chick I saw play with Jeff Beck on TV a while back. Anybody know her name? She smoked in several ways.
