I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
John Taylor used to be as well, but is now more recognised as the brilliant bassist he is. Bernard Edwards rated him highly, what more do you need?
Nick Beggs too, but I think a bit more recognised as good. Fun fact - I used to own his MXR chorus pedal, quite likely used on Too Shy . A friend has it now…

(and surely the only bassists non-musos know are McCartney and Flea)
Nick is massively rated. He won Classic rock society's best bassist for (at least!) 4 years in a row. Has played on many acclaimed albums with many acclaimed artists. Is one of the Prog icons of bass playing. Take a look at this Farcebook video (if it works). Nick being a nutcase as usual!

Saw a recent Specials concert on TV (following Terry Hall's death) and my jaw dropped. I had no idea UK ska was so demanding bass wise (I'll add the guy out of Madness as well).
Cupid's Dead comes to mind, also tragic comic- Which is a wonderfully simple major triad riff over 4 chords but works brilliantly
Guy Pratt of Pink Floyd
