In my opinion, Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers is one of rock n’ roll’s greatest bass guitar players. He’s got it all, from skill to stage presence to writing music. However, if you ask Flea who the greatest bass player is, he won’t say it’s him.

In a recent interview, Flea said Paul McCartney is rock n’ roll’s best bass player. According to Yahoo Entertainment, Flea said “There are so many guys that are great in different ways, but Paul’s bass playing is so lyrical and melodic, and it’s just so beautiful. One of the things I’ve heard is that he puts the bass on after.”

He also went on to talk about who rock n’ roll’s greatest female voice is. Who did he pick? He called Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders the “Greatest female rock singer of all time.”
