Only bass players know him. If any non-boomer musicians cites him as an influence, I don't believe them. It's just that he's the first electric bass player of note, at least in a historic sense, so he gets way more credit then is due.

Great player, but no one cared until well after his death.

biggest chad in prog, wetton mogs

don’t even know his name but the bassist from BRAD.

His playing reminds me of John Entwistle in some ways, but a more precise version of it. Better captured on records, too, compared to The Who.

Jeff Berlin.
Bassist for Bruford, Allan Holdsworth, and countless other virtuosos. Good solo discography, as well.
Is he underrated? Idk, I don't see many people mention him unless they're a bass teacher, in which case they either love or hate him.

No but really, the bassline on For Tommorow is fucking incredible. (and many others from MLIR are too)

whoever said Dean Garcia around a year ago or whatever I only knew him for Horror Head which is a great bassline but I didn't except the whole of Doppelganger to be so good
>>
>>131751046
I hope his bass is one day found
>>
>>131751538
Yeah it really makes the song. The bassline for Coffe and TV is brilliant also

Keni Burke of the Five Stairsteps is so fuckin based but I rarely ever see him get brought up anywhere

his grooves are so elegant

I was gonna say "who thinks Wetton is underrated?" but shockingly everyone. Dude does not get the respect he deserves. Even the dreck that was Asia's catalogue is elevated just by having Wetton.

Nardwaur deserves to be bullied

find me a list of top 10 prog bassists that doesn't have wetton on it
>>
>>131750125
Nardwuar's whole gimmick is about trying to get bullied, that's why he maintained such terrible breath and spoke that annoyingly, he was deliberately making fun of the musicians by being this parody of a superfan in confrontational punk way. Then the times changed and people were now genuinely loving his schtick as a ''wholesome'' character.

grosskopf has some pretty sweet lines

>>131750873
He wasn't in good terms with Wilson until recently.
