Favorite Female Bass Player

[Disquieter]

Rhonda Smith of Prince. Not only is she a hottie, she can cook on the bass!

I like a woman who can cook...



someone had to say it.

OK, the 'chick' in RUSH my have a high, screetchy, annoying voice, and I'll agree, is pretty ugly but 'she' can wail on the axe....

As far as real female players....Gail Ann Dorsey all the way...

Who is your favorite female bass player??

Kim Deal from the Pixies.

It has got to be the queen of bass... Ms. Carol Kaye!!! - She gives the term badass new meaning. Without her bass would still be back in the stone ages (for both male and female players) - LOOKS BE DAMNED - SHE CAN REALLY PLAY!

Ah, but did she? Or did she just say she did?

Wow what a COINCIDENCE! I just got my new Bass Player mag in the mail and guess who made the front cover.....Rhonda Smith! That is so cool ! I wonder if Bass Player reads this forum and then decides who is featured based on what we're talking about .

I do like her Mesa Boogie setup! Now if we can just convince her to try a Bongo !

She can play my Bass anytime!!

Female Bass Player?!?!?

She needs to shave!

 

[spectorbassguy]

Tina Weymouth because I watched her actually learn to play bass over the years.

Or Gail Ann Dorsey because she plays a Bongo and a Stingray.

I'd have to agree on Tina Weymouth, Bov. Nothing super flashy, she just plays within the song and is SOLID.

Yeah, Kip did go downhill after the 80's.

Seriously, I checked out Abandoned Pools in '02 & really digged Leah. She was pretty good and didn't hurt to look at:

Personally, I like to watch Sheryl Crow play bass.
