Scott LaFaro Ron Carter Jimmy Garrison Oscar Pettiford Charles Mingus Ray Brown Tommy Potter Bertram Turetzky Gary Karr The first group lists primarily jazz giants, the next two fellows are classical greats. If you like Willie Dixon's work you should check out the Muddy Waters recordings with Big Crawford. I'd throw in Jaco Pastorius and Billy Sheehan, even though they were/are mainly electric players.
