Tommy The Cat-Primus



Pink Floyd-One Of These Days



Check on 5 minute mark. Mason loses his drumstick but never the beat-quality.

No links but try Stranglers-Threatened from BLACK AND WHITE. Storming bass from JJB.

The bass line for The Beatles "Something" is gorgeous.

Jack Bruce's bass on "Crossroads" is pretty groovy too. Real improvisation done right.

Too stoned to come up with songs but generally Queen, Rick Danko or Flea (especially BSSM Flea)... Jeff Ament is underrated as well.
