Dream Theater - The Glass Prison

Also, Metallica's Damage Inc. It would be difficult to reproduce live because it's like 7 tracks of bass, but it still sounds awesome.

SRV - Crossfire

Too many Atheist songs to name.

That would be a typo. If it was possible I would make out with The Glass Prison.

Nevermore - Dead Heart, In a Dead World
Hibria - A lot of songs have some really cool towards-begining bass solos.
Necrophagist - Only Ash Remains
Alarum - Woven Imbalance (There's guitar initially but the bass does some cool arps), and Audio Synthesis is cool
Steely Dan - Glamour Profession (the whole bass line on that song is funky as fuck), Black Cow, Bad Sneakers, King of The World, Negative Girl (awesome bass lines in this song period), I'm sure there's plenty more from them.

You couldn't play it from memory but I bet you still remember how the riff sounds. Thats just your mind deteriorating from old age.

Jaco-Come on, Come over (it's really the main groove, not the intro)

I hate to admit it, but...Staind-Mudshovel
Pantera-No Good (ATR)-that unison gtr/bass intro is truly bitchin'
