Just do a search on them on google and you should be able to find many recordings....especially with Ray Brown. He is one of the most prolific bassists ever.
I would also start by checking out "Best Jazz Albums of All Time" type lists. With these standards you will run into some of the best jazz bassists recorded and also get turned onto many other incredible musicians.
If you like the no drums and horns format of Super Bass 2 check out the Joe Pass and Nils Hedding Oersted Pederson sessions. Smokin. |

This isn't just a great jazz bass album, it's also a great jazz album period. In other words, it won't bore non-bassists. |

Double bass or electric bass - or do you just mean Jazz? 
I could end up listing my whole record collection!!!
