I must agree with Les Claypool, I think he is a superior talent. I live close enough to walk to "El Rancho Relaxo" in fact!

He isn't just the bassest, he writes all the music, sings and has his own label "Prawn Song". In addition to Sausage his alternate bands include the Fearless Flying Frog Brigade.

Some others:

Slash - GnR, Velvet Revolver, etc.

Bootsy Collins - P-Funk

Beck

Prince

David Bowie

I guess "Bon Jovi" could be considered a musician, maybe, though "John Bon Jovi" would be closer to the topic.

 The other two are just bands.

God.. I mean a lot of the people you guys list have talent.. but lets look at some *really* innovative musicians:

Jimi Hendrix
One of the most innovative musicians to ever live, his music became the definitive sound for an era where music was at its greatest.

Eric Clapton
Just watching this guy play the guitar puts me in a mood where I can't put down my guitar for a week afterwards, he's old as hell, but his music is timeless.

Johnnie Johnson
Co-Collaborator with Chuck Berry, and credited with the "driving undercurrent" in many of Chuck Berry's songs, such as Johnnie B. Good.. incidentally also the person of whom the song is speaking.

Chuck Berry
Introduced many innovative techniques into the music scene, considered by many to be the Father of Rock and Roll.

Les Paul
Not only one of the greatest guitarists who ever lived, but also pioneered much of modern guitar design.  He is credited with the creation of the solid body electric which replaced the arch-top electric used through the 40s and early 50s.  The 1960 Gibson Les Paul is still the single best guitar I have ever had the privledge of playing.

Bob Dylan
Started the "Folk Rock" revolution in 1965, giving birth to the style of music that predominated much of late 60s early 70s rock and roll.

Kurt Cobain
Although there are many musicians that deserve credit between Dylan in 65 and Cobain, I realized this list was getting rather long, and couldn't neglect to add the lead of my favorite band (Nirvana).  Nirvana's release of the "Nevermind" album, more specifically the song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" exposed the Grunge Rock movement to the entire nation, where before it was concentrated in the Seattle musical "underground."  While the popularity of Grunge Rock has faded, its influence is still very evident in much of modern rock.

A lot of current bands and musicians are amazing in thier own right, but the people that I've listed above have made contributions that have changed the face of music forever.  They are the true great musicians that will be remembered as the innovators of thier time.

(Also note, every person listed here has long been inducted to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.. this isn't just my opinion  :D )

It's always best in the long run to be what you are. It isn't proper to behave as if you were more, but it isn't good to behave as if you were less, either... The whole problem seems to be finding out exactly what you really are.
