The absolutely sick groove that Squire lays down after the first "cha-cha-cha" sequence in Sound Chaser...

The slow part at the beginning of Heart of the Sunrise, where Squire and Bruford take the lead, and Wakeman soars in behind.

here a couple from a unsung... here at least.. master of the bass and one of the greatest voices in rock.. from two incredible solo albums after Cream split. HIGHLY recommended...

To  Isnengard off of SFaT is a personal bass favorite... shame there is no clip of that so we have these

There is a piece in Another Won by Dream Theater on the Score DVD that is brilliant (15.49). Most of the bass on that song stays in my mind. Never heard the studio version as it’s on the Majesty demo's official bootleg CD which I don't have.
 
There are other great Bass parts from all the great bassists but that just sticks in my mind.

Not particularly technical but I love the driving rhythm of the bass in this track...

Any of rush's songs from end of the 70's amaze me. Geddy Lee is a true genius, just listen how he manages to catch the feel of the song just in his bass lines, and manages the lead the song all along, always showing it's direction.

I've tried putting a lot of rush songs on 2 hand piano, (on a program called guitar pro, guitar right hand, bass left) the result is stunning! the interplay is there, but the bass remains extremely rythmique and leads the song in her different sections.
M. Lee is a bass master

When you said cat, I thought you meant a cat as in one of Ghost Rider's signature felines; well, I really don't know what I was thinking at that point.  They don't have any songs about cats.  On the other hand I can see someone doing a tribute with a dog, barking to By-Tor and the Snow Dog and Dog Years.Wink

Has anyone mentioned "Havona" from Weather Report yet?  Jaco just goes completely nuts.

I also have to throw in "Larks' Tongues in Aspic, Part 1" (John Wetton), "Karn Evil 9" (Greg Lake), "The Gates of Delirium" (Chris Squire), and "Cinderella Man" (Geddy Lee) as well.
