Also check out the original recording of Weather Report's "Black Market" (off the album of the same name). Bass playing by Alphonso Johnson. Sublime.

I'd pick about 3-5 basslines from all your idols and learn no more than that. If you learn entire ablums or an entire discography you run the risk of sounding too much like 'Player A' or 'Joe Bassist' and what have you. Good choices, though: everything from Fams and Jaco to John Deacon to Geddy.
