Come on. On the 3rd page about Favorite Bassists and not ONE SPOT OF LOVE for Peter Hook???
What is he, the bass antichrist or something, for developing such a gimmicky yet seductively influential melodic approach? Not like he did it first, but best is better then first. Yes it is. Yes. It is. Best is WAY better than first. Unless whoever's first were to be only a teensy little bit below whoever's best on the goodness scale, in which case...call it a tie.
Actually, strike that. Even then, best is still just that little bit better.
I think people just give all the props to first 'cause it doesn't strain their critical faculties. Just look at a calendar.
