Aside from the basic question/subject matter - that is one of the strangest collections of songs that I have ever heard. PJ Harvey in the same list as Helmet. Whacky!!!

 

[KevInDaBassment]

Stranglehold - Sweaty Teddy Nugent

The man with "Tednacity"

 

[jd-ns]

every AC/DC & ZZ Top song I've ever heard

 

[OldDirtyBassist]

Simple and effective immediately makes me think of Duck Dunn.

 

[SGT. BAKER]

"Walking on the Moon" or mostly of Police tunes.

 

[FilterFunk]

"Hollywood Swinging." I think Kool started the "1, 2, 3" funky bass line opening notes that became pretty popular ("Good Times" by Chic and "Another One Bites The Dust" by Queen are two of the best-known examples).
