Watched an Iron Maiden documentary last night from a 2008 show, and I must admit Harris is pretty good.

Well I know he's dead but it's hard to beat Metallica's first bassist and the Major rager on the four string motherf@#ker Cliff Burton.

And Myron Dove of Santana simply amazing

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.

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.
