Thanks, Robert, but we're looking for Album Titles, not a list of bassists.

I guess it's been long enough since I posted to add to the list:


Antonio Carlos Jobim w/ Elis Regina - Elis & Tom, Wave, Tide
Miles Davis - Birth of the Cool, Bitches Brew
Joe Henderson - Double Rainbow
J.J. Johnson - The Trombone Master
Seu Jorge - The Life Aquatic Soundtrack
The Stooges - First Album
Television - Marquee Moon
Hermeto Pascoal - So' Nao Toca Quem Nao Quer, A Arte Livre de Hermeto Paschoal
Jeff Berlin - Champion, Pump It

I'm glad too see a lot of Primus suggested here... I also think some great albums would be:

  • Primus: Pork Soda
  • Primus: Tales from the Punchbowl
  • Primus: Frizzle Fry
  • Primus: Sailing the Seas of Cheese
  • Tool: Ænima
  • Tool: Laterus
Primus can really be influential, Les does a really nice job tying the band together with his funky baselines... and Justin Chancellor has a natural talent for making a unique sounding tone that really does Tool justice.
