Meshell Ndegeocello<br />
The songwriter/bandleader—best<br />
known for her go-go-influenced<br />
grooves and back-pickup sound<br />
on a Jazz Bass or signature Reverend—is<br />
reliably strong and undeniably<br />
stanky, whether on her own<br />
or with luminaries like Herbie Hancock<br />
and Chaka Khan. “I’m like Prince<br />
and Sting,” she says. “If they had a<br />
baby, that’s my style.”<br />
Jerry Jemmott<br />
Summoned South from New York to<br />
fix Aretha Franklin’s “Think” with his<br />
street-smart syncopation—forged<br />
as a member of King Curtis’ band—<br />
Jemmott went on to cut classic recordings<br />
with Wilson Pickett, Duane<br />
Allman, Otis Rush, and the Rascals.<br />
His stuttering bass lines (check out<br />
B.B. King’s Live and Well) laid the<br />
template for Rocco, Jaco, and other<br />
16th-note masters.<br />
Matt Garrison<br />
Garrison, the son of Coltrane bassist<br />
Jimmy Garrison, expanded the bass<br />
guitar’s harmonic and sonic capabilities<br />
by stringing his 5-string with a<br />
high C and adding a MIDI pickup. The<br />
resulting blend of played and programmed<br />
content on his landmark<br />
first two albums, as well as stints<br />
with Joe Zawinul, John McLaughlin,<br />
and Herbie Hancock, have influenced<br />
a wave of followers.<br />
Lemmy Kilmister<br />
The Rickenbacker bass, the black<br />
hat, the bottle of Jack Daniels, the<br />
mole, the legend. Few bassists have<br />
been the iconic face of rock in the<br />
way that Lemmy was. His playing<br />
with his speed-metal outfit Motörhead<br />
taught future generations of<br />
bass players that attitude is just as<br />
important as talent.<br />
