John Paul Jones is much better at bass than Paul McCartney


Both are great bass players. I've looked at numerous polls on "Top Rock Bassist of All Time" and both are usually in the top 10, each ranking higher than the other in different polls. IMO, McCartney is overall much more talented due to his song writing, vocals, piano and lead/rhythm guitar abilities. Any musician will tell you it is more difficult to be the lead singer on a song while playing bass. He played every instrument on his first solo album (McCartney). JPJ may be better but "much better" is a stretch.

I’m not sure this is accurate. I have been a guitarist for years, but I don’t find singing while playing bass to be any more challenging than singing while playing guitar.

Look at the video I linked above. Davie explains exactly why PM doesn’t have the chops to be in the top 10.
