i second that

Shellac - "End Of Radio"* Bass guitar as timekeeper! Over top of drummer whacking around!
Respect for that, I don't think I could do it... I'd get all messed up - Salut, Mr. Weston!

The Beat - "Mirror In The Bathroom" or "Twist & Crawl" (it's like trying to pick a favorite child!)

NoMeansNo - "Rags And Bones" (Definitely worth mentioning more than once!)

Portishead - "Half Day Closing"

The Go-Go's - "Get Up And Go"

Dave Fridmann's playing on "the funny bird" i like. Dave Fridmanns bass playing in general i like

Curtis Mayfield - Pusherman
One of my favorite grooves of all time

and seconded, anything by chris squire.

I absolutely love the bass playing on the Issac Hayes version "By The Time I Get To Phoenix" . The same bass player played on Pet Sounds.

June of 44 - "Dexterity of Luck"

Bobby Donne's bass playing on those Labradford records is really great, and understated.
