+1 to richard bona

also, some of my favorite fretless playing ever is on paul simon's album, "graceland" bakithi holds it down. check out the song "diamonds on the soles of her shoes" if you havnt before. that song inspired me to become a bass player.

Richard Bona for sure.

Check out this version of "Bright Size Life" he plays on with Pat Metheny.
