With me as an avid bass player myself, I find it weird that there are so many guitarists/lead singers and so few bassists/lead singers.
Here are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head: The All-American Rejects MxPx Pink Floyd? Blink-182? (both have more than one lead singer) Anyone know some more or the reason why it's so lopsided? |

Here's a couple others that spring to mind:
Rush (Geddy Lee) The Police (Sting) Pixies (Kim Deal sang lead on a few tracks) R.E.M. (Mike Mills sang lead on a few tracks) Morphine (Mark Sandman) The Beatles, Wings (Paul McCartney) Kiss (Gene Simmons) ----- Use all your well-learned politesse or I'll lay your soul to waste. |

wow, I don't know how I forgot about those. I'm particularly impressed by Geddy Lee. Try listening to the bass part on "YYZ". Good thing for him there's no vocals on it. |

A few more that come to mind:
Greg Lake - King Crimson (I don't count ELP because he also played guitar there) John Wetton - King Crimson, UK, Asia Jack Blades - Night Ranger This is a bit of a stretch, but Ronnie James Dio played bass in the original incarnation of Elf. I believe they were called the Electric Elves at the time. |

lopsided? PErhaps lead guitarists are more outgoing than are bassists.
Did John Entwistle sing on any The Who songs? "give me ambiguity or give me something else." |
