not an argument
On second thought Claypool is somewhat acceptable but in what world is Lee better than Squire? Like beyond a couple Rush songs his bass playing is boring as hell.
Dadrock haters will disagree but he really is great. He has his own style and knows how to work within a song, he doesn't wank or play over the guitar like Les Claypool does (imo). He realizes what a bass player's role is.
his playing on some songs are pretty boring, granted, but in terms of overall skill at playing his instrument i put him there

He also wrote most of the lyrics

OP said bassist, not bass guitarist.
Squire is one of the greats, maybe not THE best, I just want to have a great bass guitarists thread though
Minutemen had the GOAT instrumental lineup but horrendously bad vocals

Lol. Geddy Lee took what he was doing on the early Yes albums and improved upon everything 10x
This. I certainly wouldn't call Flea the best but he's really great and like you said, he doesn't wank or try to steal the show, even though he easily can. I guess he did a bit of that on the early RHCP albums, but he outgrew it pretty quickly. And even then, he's good enough to be the center of attention in a song at times.
Dunno about better but I've been loving this guy's playing recently

But he's dead
I honestly can't. RIP Chris Squire.

Flea is honestly crap
When I first started playing bass when I was 15 I though he was God. But he's not good at all.

Frusciante was the only notable musician in RHCP
