Who's YOUR favorite Prince Bass Player??

Today I asked my friend who his favorite Prince bass player was, because we're listening to Prince in our computer jukebox today @ work. His answers were:
1)Sonny T.
2)Andre Cymone
My answers were:
1)Prince HIMSELF!!!!! Don't believe me?? Listen to "777-9311".....Nuf Said!!!
2)Sonny T. (cause Prince supposedly learned some thangz from Mr. Thompson HIMSELF)
3)Andre Cymone

So, org-ers, I ask y'all: Who is YOUR favorite Prince bass player????? And Larry Graham DON'T COUNT!!!!! lol lol lol

Don't forget:

Rhonda Smith
Larry Graham
Levi Seacer Jnr

My question is how can you judge André as a bassist if you haven't seen him live - Prince hardly let him play on any albums...

My own personal fave is actually Rhonda, dang that girl jams!
