awwwwwwwwwww man! When I posted earlier I forgot to put derrick hodge up there...I don't see him too often, but when I do, he leaves such a impression on me. On the bass and as a person, the dude's awesome. BUT yeAH these three dudes are monsters!

yeah I was in bass heaven

Adam's a serious producer too, there's this live track he did on TaMyya J's CD, smokin'. I think he produce like 5 or 6 songs on it.

As far as gospel bassists go I think everyone has mentioned some serious players. However, only a handful of gospel bassist have amazingly graced the pages of Bass Player Magazine. As far as I know only Joel Smith, Maurice Fitzgerald & Bryant Wilder have had articles written about them or their music. I think, but I'm not sure, Andrew Gouche has been written about in BP. I was actually quite surprised that unitl this post no one has mentioned B. Wilder, his band and his gospel/funk/jazz CD are crazy. He's one of my favorites, the others are Anthony Jackson and Mark King. Oh, BTW Alicia Keys' bassist's name is Rufus Jackson--good player.

I think tha Victor Wooten is the sickest bass player to me. I have seen him play and i have never heard nothing like it.
