Bagiti Khumalo on Paul Simon's Graceland and Armand Sabal Lecco on Paul Simon's Rhytem of the Saints albums.
Most of The Who's John Entwhistle's bass runs on record.
Billy Sheehan stuff esp with Mr Big
Steve Morse Band's "Cruise Missle" ... forgot his bassist name.
Stewart "Aquanaut" DeSouza's blues solos.

Ya, i always challenge my self. The feeling of being able to play YYZ would just be pure satisfaction man. Im half through the song, yesh!! But im also looking for other song man. Im self taught so i learn song to improve my skill and i hate all those music theories, just doesn't make sense to me. Music shud be felt man. My 2 cents.

To me, probably the toughest song is The Dance of Eternity from Dream Theater. It's from their Scenes from a Memory concept album.

most of the lines that proggers do require a certain level of chops, just woodshedding will do.
but once u head to bebop land, all hell breaks loose.

The trouble about playin Dream Theater is that Jon Myung uses a 6 string, so i cant exactly play what he is playing. on a 4 string.

Hardest slap bassline
I personally find the HARDEST slap bassline is Bonin' in the Boneyard by Fishbone.
It's quite obvious no one here has heard of Fishbone... But do check it out. If you want a recording of it just pm me I'll send it to you.

Anti-flag Bass Lines For The Win!!:d
Its a very difficult question to answer.Each bass line in every song is very unique but i think the more complex and difficult bass line is from Extreme,Mr.Big and Primus.The bass line really added more spice to the songs,very good to listen but very difficult to play along.Thats just my view:???:
actually many dream theater songs can be done on 4 string basses
what the heck are you talking about,can you please tell me how do you get the pitch frequency of the 6th string bass on the 4th string bass?To play a perfect bass line of Jon Myung you need to have a 6th string bass but of course 4th string bass can play the song as the chords are the same but the frequency,the depth,the crunch cant match the 6th string bass sounds.I assumed that you dont know anything about bass.Lets get real!
