Magazine 'Secondhand Daylight': Barry Adamson's wondrously flanged Rickenbacker dominates proceedings throughout. And any Who album could qualify: I'd probably plump for 'Quadrophenia' where The Ox seems to be soloing all through both records. Listen to 'The Real Me' for a prime example.

It's not really a bass guitar as such, but Eberhard Weber's superb custom made jobbie stands out on every record he appears on, whether in his own name or that of others like Jan Garbarek or Mal Waldron. He's a tremendously sensitive player. I'd probably go for 'Silent Feet' if pressed to name just one album that exemplifies his art.

And how about The Beat's debut 'I Just Can't Stop It'? I spent many hours trying to replicate the amazing bass lines on that.

Otherwise, anything that Wobbles!
