"On the Threshold of a Dream" by the Moody Blues for bass articulation, detail and control. If both of these sound good, most everything else should also and you are in very good shape bass-wise.

Recording: The Astounding Eyes of Rita. Anouar plays the oud; Klaus Gesing,bass clarinet; Björn Meyer, bass; Khaled Yassine, drums of various tpes. I stumbled across this via YouTube. Track #5 was playing in the background of a Rega turntable "ad". Thought it was just beautiful, sent a note to the audio shop. Best music/musician discovery in a long time for me.
