Music out there with good bass

Some suggestions: "Secret World" by Peter Gabriel has bass that wraps around and envelopes you in a way that's difficult to explain until you experience it. Tool on any of their cds has generally some of the coolest bass tones ever recorded. "Perfect Drug" by Nine Inch Nails is a tour de force of interesting sounds of all kinds but the bass will shake the house with the right speakers.

Yes, Tool is my preferred choice for bass in rock music. They never dissappoint me. Also their spinoff, A Perfect Circle" is also very good.

Victor Wooten is a bassist I also enjoy.

Some of Celia Cruz' (Queen of Salsa) last recordings are mixed with some very rich bass. Santana/Puente covers.

Sparklehorse - It's a Wonderful Life.

I happened to revisit Jennifer Warnes yesterday for the first time in ages. Her record/cd "The Hunter" has impressive bass guitar/drums on several tracks. It recalls Rickie Lee Jones "We Belong Together" (I believe that song is on her eponymously titled cd) in sound quality, although RLJ is, for me, much the more interesting artist.
