I am very much influenced by both in my own apporach in my bass playing, as both has elements i have tryed to take into my own playing. The unpredictability of Mikes playing is undisputed and unmatched and what ive learned from him. Hes supremly good at melodic bass playing, quite etherial. While also distinct, the rumble of Squire is unmatched while Mike is a very hidden gem of 70s bass; Squire was the evolution of bass in the 70s and he is the paradigme for were bass would go for into, Chris Squire is the culmination of 5 forces of bass, the power of John Entwistle, the flexability of Jack Bruce,the melodic approach of Paul McCartney, the revolutionary nature of James Jamerson and the funky flavour of Larry Graham. But from 70s and onwards Chris was the leading force of bass, whom Geddy Lee, Steve Harris and Billy Sheehan among others are proof of. Not that Rutherford isnt influential but not in the same paradigme.
