I'm not to knowledgeable about musicians but Stevie Ray Vaughn is the Sh*t thumbs up!, I love Sting but not sure about that. I'd add Phil Collins and the whole Chicago band with Terry Kath. Somebody already mentioned Flea.

SRV had some of the absolute FONKIEST phrasing I've ever heard. Some of that was Albert King. Some of it was Texas. But a whole lot of it came from those big ol' hands of his. I would put him up there with Prince for being a funky soloist.

Sting's inclusion in my thread comes from his bass playing. His work on "We'll Be Together" and the video version of "After the Rain" left me speechless. His "All This Time" disc shows some unexpected funk sensibilities, in his rearrangement of some songs.

Oooh, I feel a Sting marathon coming on.
