Flea from the Chili Peppers not only got me playing bass, but exposed me to a whole line of great bassists I wouldn't have known about.

 

Tim Commerford from Rage has some great basslines backing up Morello. Mostly simple stuff, but it sounds great.

 

Paul McCartney of course.

 

Larry Graham, the almighty creator of the slap.

 

Paul Simonon of The Clash.

 

I'm not a huge 311 fan, but P-Nut is a great bassist.

 

SO many more.
