Music out there with good bass

I'll second the Yello. I have Yello's "One Second", and Yello's "Essential Yello". These are very well recorded and are pure pleasure to listen to. They will really put your system through it's paces and if your system can do it well you'll find they are difficult to take off the play list.
Patricia Barber's "Modern Cool" has some really outstanding accoustic bass lines on it. I really like this disc as well.

I AM NOT A BASS FREAK I JUST LIKE A GOOD STRONG BEAT TO THE MUSIC. I JUST BOUGHT IN THE FLESH BY RODGER WATERS AND WAS UPSET ON THE WEAK BASS IN THE RECORDING. PINK FLOYD TUNES SHOULD HAVE A GOOD BASS RESPONCE. I HAVE SUMMIT SPEAKERS AND I KNOW I GET FULL RANGE OUT OF THEM.

Mjfvashon, if you like Yello, you have to get a copy of either The Eye or Motion Picture. It's a must. I agee with you about Modern Cool. Have you tried "Verse"? It sounds even better...

"Shake Your Rump" by the Beastie Boys. And the resolution is pretty darn good too.
