Moonlover Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 (edited) A while ago I rated Stanley Clarke was the world's greatest bass player. Paul McCartney disagrees with me. What would I know? ???? 'Abraham Laboriel is one of the world’s greatest bass players according to Paul McCartney. A lot of musicians must agree because he is the most recorded bass player of all time' says Boyd Matson.

Popular Post Andy from Kent Posted December 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2020 My inclination is to amend calling them the greatest and simply say "great guitarists" You can't leave out Mel when it comes to referencing a great guitarist. Other than a lack of opportunity, I can't imagine why she couldn't stand next to and perform with the aforementioned guitarists. And I kind of doubt growing up in a Muslin country as she did she got a lot of encouragement from her family and friends. Rock music doesn't usually blast from the mosque speakers. Here's Mel: 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy from Kent Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Even without her great guitar skills these young lady will have men clamoring to open doors for her. There're just so many talented people, I wonder how some manage to rise above others in competition for recognition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also a one hour interview of her life and career on YT worth watching. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frantick Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Probably not the greatest, but shouts out to Don Felder for being one of the most copied guitarists for writing and his solo in Hotel California. (No, Joe Walsh didn't do that) I like the acoustic version myself. And to Lindsey Buckingham just for doing it different than anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bartender100 Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 He may have not been the best guitarist, but the best sure do owe him a lot, including the Beatles, Stones, Bob Dylan, The Hollies and many more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
