Paul McCartney (The Beatles)

He could play every band instrument; guitar, drums, and not to mention his outstanding bass. The best musician ever.

Melodic Bass Guru

an amasing basist, its no surprise he has a BILLION dolars.

Paul McCartney is the best bassist ever! He is the best in everything he does. [The Beatles are the greatest band of all time!]

My inspiration for bass. He defiantly deserves a spot on the top ten list.

Paul McCartney should be higher on the list without his playing the bass would not be considered vital to a rock band

He made the bass a front man instrument. No longer would a bass player be just a backing man, a la Elvis Presley

One of the very best. Should certainly be in the top ten.

the thing obout paul is, he was the bassist of the greatest band ever, but not only does he play bass, hes amazing at every instrument u give him, piano, guitar drums, he can do it all, he might not be the greatest bass player in the world, but he sure is one of the greatest musicians along with noel gallagher

Paul McCartney owns my soul. His bass lines flow so well together. Like running water.

Sweet! He can do amazing basslines

The best and most inventive bassist
of all time.I' salute you guru.

Simply the greatest musician not just the bassist.

DEfinitely the most inventive! JUst listen to Abbey Road. There are more amazing basslines thanyou can count!!

McCartney is an all around great musician and an amazing bass player listen to songs like i saw her standing there and and your bird can sing he can play amazingly

good god he was the best at everything! ok, maybe not, but just being a beatle makes him the best

Way better than "Flea". no one can beat Paul on the bass

definetly doesnt deserve to be at the 10 spot..ill say #2..he was just on point with his bass lines..like one of the comments before me said..just listen to Abbeyroad.

My fav bassist and as great as composer as instrumentist.. Althoug i really like Victor Wooten and Flea, i'll stay with Macca, still my fav, and from my fav band!

he's my favorite beatle since i was a little kid

When looking for the greatest bassists of all time we must not only look at skill, but the songs they write. McCartney's bass lines are amazing and he definitely deserves top 10 for his influence in bass music.

Legend.

before McCartney, the so called "bassist" was just another person in a band. and it's interesting to know that he wasn't the bassist in the beginning...

Paul can easily outplay all of these other bassists except for Geddy. Go McCartney!
