Right, my bass teacher has given me a few Victor Wooten songs on a CD, and I'm learning More Love, U Can't Hold No Groove and Norwegian Wood.
I wanna buy some of his CDs, but where do I start? 'A Show Of Hands' looks good, what others?
Cheers y'all.
EDIT - Oh, if anyone wants to reccomend any other bassists, feel free ^_^

Bela Fleck is an amazing banjo player/band leader, and the stuff he did with Wooten is incredible. Most of Wooten's solo stuff is extremely focused on the bass, his stuff with the Flecktones shows his musicianship skills and how good he is with a full band. I suggest you get their album "Flight of The Cosmic Hippo", it's my favorite. Also check out their live albums, any of them are good.
