Bass Lines!
parm:
Everything by Stevie Wonder, ever.
Fuck it, everything on Motown and Stax, ever. Seriously, I would sell substantial parts of my own anatomy and that of my family to be able to play like any of those guys. Just listen to them; they're so fucking tight and intricate and smart and they make it sound so goddamned effortless.
Also, and I know this isn't going to be popular, the whole of the Graceland album by Paul Simon has amazing if somewhat 80s bass playing.

OSI- Horseshoes and B-52s
Pretty much anything by Gordian Knot and Cynics "Focus".
Seam Malone is a beast
Oh, and just because:

I love the tone of Dan Adriano's bass on pretty much every Alkaline Trio album. His playing style is fun, too.
E. Spaceman:
Tommy has mentioned Tina Weymouh but of special interest are the recordings from the Remain In Light tour where they were joined by several musicians, specifially Busta Jones from P Funk on the bass. I truly believe that during this period, Talking Heads was a band of instrumental creativity and prowess that has rarely if ever been matched
