Joe Lally from Fugazi is pretty great. I think they went through a couple bassists but Minor Threat had some good basslines, too.
Tina Weymouth from Talking Heads is great.
Paul Simonon from The Clash.
Chris Gates from Big Boys.
Yes he is, he didn't come to mind at first but he does have good bass lines



I saw another member mention Kim Gordon which is also a huge stretch.
