two of my favorite riffs are acdc's jailbreak and ozzy's believer both are fairly simple but sound really nice, accent the songs well, and are fun to play

Check out 'Time to Hide' by Wings. Always loved the bass on that. Sir Paul rules!

The Misfits- Last Caress...don't know why, I've just had the song stuck in my head for a while

With Rush, the list just goes on...but Hemispheres is one of my faves, pretty challenging bassline.

"Immigrant Song" is one of my favorites for pure energy and an excellent bass line.

This. Hemispheres, YYZ, Caravan Leave That Thing Alone and Driven (IMO) are the top 5 Rush songs.

I'm also kind of fond of Slither by VR, and I think Fall to Pieces has some great fills in it.
