songs/albums with exemplary/definitive tones of lesser-known classic basses?

[The Mock Turtle Regulator]

Simon Gallup uses Thunderbirds pretty much as his main basses now- he also uses an Epiphone Jack Casady and his black custom Knight semi-acoustic occasionally.
BTW pic still not working- I'm on dialup so it might be timing-out.

I found a pic of Kinley Wolfe playing an MM Sabre with the Cult circa 1991- he never recorded with the band, but it's a nice blueburst example

[The Sound of the Police]

This weekend I watched a DVD of The Band called The Last Waltz. The bass player played an Ampeg scroll bass on one song and what I think was a Gibson Ripper or Grabber on most of the songs.
He even had an EUB that I would guess to have been an Ampeg.
All the basses sounded really good. An excellent movie, by the way.
I don't know whether or not he uses these basses in other recordings, though.
