Tim Commerford again, and he doesn't take the easy route of playing it off the A string. Incidentally, I have noticed that over 60% of the above youtube links have been closed down because of "copyright violations".
I figured this would happen; but "buttocks" all the same.

Yeah, bit of a theme isn't there? He is great though, and versatile too from the very mellow to the massive and noisy. I'll shut up now and try and find some other bassists...

Lounge Act, unusually, you can actually hear a lot of the bass fills on this recording.

Also unusually, a good live recording put up on youtube. Wonder how long it'll stay?

For ages, I've been meaning to put in Pino Pallodino for the bassline on Gary Numan's "Music for Chameleons"

This appearance on Top of The Pops features those "trouserleg" drumkits I remember at the time.

Yes, for those who don't know this comedy, typing "Alan Partridge" and probably "tax" into Youtube's search will turn up a great piece of "air-bass" playing by the spoof local-radio DJ.

Don't actually like the song but a great bassline from Dry Cell:

Absolute classic, you have to love Toots and the Maytals:

Great bassline for Dry Cell. Wasn't convinced by the Toots, though. All those ska/reggae/2tone guitarists, lazy gits with their strumming and fretting hands barely moving; leaving it all to the bass player. I can think of more deserving cases, in my humble Smile
