A lot of you may not feel that Chaka, as a solo artist, is funk. That may be true but the Lady is funky! This one is from her album Chaka. That reminds me. I've got to get that one ripped!  Chaka Khan Some Love
Bassist: Some great ones listed on this album. Anthony Jackson, Will Lee, Mark Stevens, Hamish Stuart & Phil Upchurch. I wonder who did the work on this track? Opinions please?

I'll try to avoid the J-pop.  lol
How about... Larry Graham - It's Alright and a cover of it by the FunkHome AllStars (check the crazy cool sound on the bass, most audible at 1:40!) The Ojays - For the Love of Money Joss Stone - Incredible (maybe more into R&B (?), but like Chaka, she's got something going on that people don't realize) The Rascals - Jungle Walk (I think this one might have been posted before though) Aretha Franklin - Rock Steady
Hope those all qualify...

I'm sure it's already been posted, but I haven't had time to go through the whole thread. It's simple but it grooves hard.
