For an obsecure one but worth noting, Frankie goes to Hollywood’s cover of Born to Run has an incredible bass solo.

Suprised no of the Primus / Fugazi camp has not tipped the hat to Lemmy. If you like it Ace of Spades is where that began (mostly).

And no Sly and the family stone? Thats where the funk ended for me. It started with King Curtis

The beginning

To the end

No double bass fans???

So What Miles Davis

The earliest example I can think of of bass playing the theme.
Less iconic than the version on Kind of Blue, but I actually like the way the Second Great Quintet ended up playing it. Over time the tempos kept increasing. With Tony Williams on drums these young cats were off to the races.

But, yeah, Foxton was killer in that vein.
