I owuld agree with you!.
Though!.!.again it is subjective (and it is obvious by your Qs you are a big fan of the who!.!.!.meaning being subjective is difficult!.)
That is why I tend to lumop them as who are the best (plural not singular) since there are so many variations and things that can influence ones sound!.
For me!.!. my top 5 in no particular order
John Entwistle (the Who)
Jaco Pastorius (Weather Report)
Cliff Burton (Metallica)
Geddy Lee (Rush)
Chris Squire (Yes)
Honorable Mentions go to Flea (RCHP) and Steve Harris (Iron Maiden!.!.and my personal favorite bass player) as being amazing and unique players!. But as a Bass Player!.!.!. I do not think either is as good or Innovative as those 5!.
All amazing Bass Playerrs with totally unique sounds!.!.who redefined how bass is played!.
But!.!.if I had to choose just ONE!.!.!.!.!.
THUNDERFINGERS wins!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Depends on the type of music!. Personally Paul McCartney is probably my favourite as he's a very melodic player!. Just listen to "Silly Lovesongs"!.
However my favourite bass line of all time is probably in "Can you Dig it!?" by the Mock Turtles!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
