Best Bass players of all time

2: Paul McCartney
Paul McCartney made a trademark out of the supple, lyrical bassline more than any rock player before or since, and that’s on “Paperback Writer” alone. As one of the best bass players in history, he played both lead and rhythm, and did it all ridiculously well – a trademark of everything The Beatles did.

John Entwhistle was lead guitar for the Who and he could play rings around McCartney .....

McCartney is a great musician especially at songwriting and deserves his spot on Mt Rushmore

I hadn’t got to the fact that Paul actually wrote his massive playlist of legendary songs ….

Thank you for recognizing the living legend

Your response just proves that you should not be commenting on Paul McCartney… don’t worry it’s not your fault …you’re too young to remember the 70s

I recognized his genius before you were born. And John Entwistle will always be 10 times the bass guitarist.

...you don't seem to remember much either.

The Beatles were actually late to the party. Bob Dylan set them on the path and you can tell exactly when by their music.

[Caribbean Hen]

Don’t forget what Ringo recently said about Paul….

The truth!!!!

“In a video interview released along with the cover story, the drummer also sung his praises of McCartney’s work ethic and credited him for the amount of celebrated output that The Beatles released during their time as a group from 1962 to 1970. “Paul loved to work more than all of us,” he shared in the clip. “John and I would be, like, hanging out in the garden and the phone would ring and we knew it was him.”

“‘Hey lads, should we go into the studio?” ‘Alright, yeah,’” he continued, making an impression of the interaction. “I’ve always thanked him for being that guy because otherwise we’d have put, like, three albums out and vanished.”

Maybe you should shut up and listen for just once

Says the guy obsessed with Biden and Paul.

I listen. I just disagree a bit. I like all of the Beatles. George being my favorite.

Sum of the parts. It was more than just Paul. Thought you should know.

Do you know the story about how Paul helped George on his song The Taxman?

George had some really good songs for sure and some vicious lyrics and went to high school with Paul… Paul made George famous

You do have moments of unbiased and accurate clarity!

For me, I had some vague idea who the Beatles were circa 1970 as my mother had an old 45 record of Let it Be and I remember being kind of fascinated by that green Apple, no idea who Paul McCartney was yet but I was only 7

But then about 1975, I connected the dots…. That band named Wings seemed to be putting out a lot of good music and big hits and I liked them. Ironically, I didn’t like the Beatles at all because our music teacher played Lucy in the sky with diamonds, and I told him Elton John’s version is much better and the Beatles sounded like the chipmunks and he chuckled and proceeded to give me a lesson that I’ll never forget.

it kind of went like this….

So tell the class what band do you like?

I proudly proclaimed …. Wings…. I didn’t even know Paul McCartney was the front man at that time.

So basically, after I insulted the Beatles and praised them in the same sentence, he deservedly laughed me out of the room…….

So it was 1975 when I became “obsessed” with McCartney and a lot of that had to do with looking back and discovering the Beatles and learning that my favorite band Wings was even better than I thought because they were Paul McCartney and Wings

You’re barely older than me.

My introduction was in 1981 on a road trip with my older brother. We listened to the Beatles, blondie, the Go-Go’s Talking Heads and early REM.

My appreciation would grow in the early 90’s with my boss who graduated hs in 1971. Massive Beatles fan and especially John. Sargent Pepper was and still is my favorite album to this day.

My oldest now is a huge fan but he appreciates the Kinks and Pink Floyd every bit as much. Although he’s more of a Waters fan while I’m a Gilmour guy. Kind of a reversal from the John vs. Paul debate with Lennon and Waters being the asshole artists and Paul and Gilmour being the nice guys.

I get why you’re a Paul fan. To each his own.

I like your story and don’t get me wrong… Pink Floyd is one of my favorites and I have a great appreciation for all types of music and artist. Admittedly the cool crowd in high school were not really the biggest McCartney fans, at that time it seemed Lennon was the “fav” Beatle and dare I say perpetuated by the media? Over time though, most music historians have seen the truth about the Beatles and Paul was definitely the right guy to carry the torch

This is about as accurate as the "Ringo wasn't the best drummer in the Beatles" bullshit.

George wasn't "made famous" by Paul or anybody else. He put in the work and paid his dues on the road just like the rest of the band. This jive about it all being Paul is exactly that. Wings, not the Beatles, is the band that owes their success to Paul already being famous - and except for Linda they were hired guns on salary.

Pink Floyd said about all they had to say before DSOTM - the essentials are Piper at the Gates of Dawn and Meddle. Add Atom Heart Mother and Obscured by Clouds and you've got the cream.

Fearless is their best song, imo

I saw the DSOTM tour in San Francisco at the Cow Palace - they started with Wish You Were Here, Welcome to the Machine, and Shine on You Crazy Diamond which hadn't been released yet, then played DSOTM before their encore, a 45 minute version of Echoes.

more bullshit, San Francisco was already doing it. Credit Bob Dylan for turning on the Beatles....and ask Led Zepplin about Moby Grape - their favorite American band, with three guitarists every bit as good as Jimmy page. Your animus towards reading and learning shit is holding you way back here.
