    Billy is such a badass. Aside from his trademark hammering technique, he doesn't really have a style because he adapts and adds flavor to any type of song or arrangement. He has been influenced by almost everyone who has jammed on the four string instrument. In turn, he has become "the" most admired bassist of the last few decades.I love McCartney ,Geddy Lee, Jack Bruce,Steve Harris, James Jamerson, and Chris Squire among others. These guys are all distinctly identifiable in their playing.Billy, on the other hand, has filled his toolbox with borrowed tools from the greats and blended them into a fantastic non-style.
