About This Tool
The bass is the foundation, session legend Carol Kaye once said. Bassists are often overlooked and undervalued, even within their own bands, guitarists and singers often capture the most glorious moments in song performance. There are too many great bass players worthy of being remembered by history, like bebop pioneer Oscar Pettiford to fellow jazz geniuses Charles Mingus and Ron Carter.
This is the greatest collection. The random tool generates 186 items, including the greatest bassists of all time, they all made a great contribution to the development of music. Welcome to leave a message and share your thoughts with us.
