To me, what makes a good bass line is it's interaction with other instruments. (Mostly drums).

Oh...wrong forum.

Some of the Stones songs have great basslines that I would enjoy listening to with only the bass playing. There are others, but I don't recall off hand what they are.
The bass is a musical instrument and is quite capable of producing beautiful music on its own. IMHO

Maybe some cd's with Jamerson would be nice too. Stevie Wonders For Once In My Life maybe. Oh and 'Live', by Donny Hathaway.

Many of those songs exist in bass-only form on the Dos albums, which were bass duets between Mike Watt and his ex-wife, Kira Roessler, who played bass for Black Flag. It's fascinating to listen to the bass-only versions and realize just how essential Watt's playing is to every album he's been on.
