For basslines give me Primus anyday. Here's a short and incomplete list of some of my favorites...
Welcome to this World
Tommy the Cat
Hamburger Train (TWISTED)
Professor Nutbutter's House of Treats (I dare any bassist to try to recreate that sound...)
The Air is Getting Slippery
Wynona's Big Brown Beaver
My Name is Mud
So many more worth mentioning....
Little known fact- Fred Missouri from Facecage learned to play bass (self-taught) by listening to Primus songs and then playing them over and over. Oh and all the songs on the original Blue's Brothers soundtrack.

Greg Lake's bass in Take a Pebble
Anything by Chris Squire especially work on Close to the Edge
Most stuff by Bruce Foxton (The Jam) especially Town Called Malice
All of Jack Bruce's output.

"The opposite of pro-life isn't pro-death. Y'know?"
"What if the Hokey Cokey really is what its all about?"
