Great Rock Bassists your Top 10.Rock not Jazz. But Hey what about Reggae
@gavman + 1  One of the most amazing shows I ever saw was Sly & Robbie and their dub/roots band play a set over 3 hours long here in San Francisco about 10 years or so ago. Reggae is great, yeah??!!

@gavman - 'Best reggae bassist by a country mile', and no mention of Robbie Shakespeare? Perhaps you're not familiar with Sly and Robbie - you should check them out....   
12x7 tubes
I always buy my tubes through Brent Jessee - the tubes he recommends have always been a good upgrade to my gear...  Just got one a few weeks ago, in fact.

Best Rock Drummers

Forgotten heavy bands from late 60's to early 70's
@lordmelton - it might be Greenslade, but Roger did SO many album covers back then, who knows what I was thinking of?  That Medicine Head one - wow, that's a real obscuro!!
