I love the sound of a song driven by solid bass players. What are some good albums to check out by people like Stanley Turrentine, Jaco, Brian Bromberg, etc, or that sound like them? I'm not really famialiar with bass players so any suggestions would be nice

You gotta check out Stanley Clarke's first solo effort titled 'Stanley Clarke'. Excellent players on that one: Jan Hammer, Tony Williams(RIP) and others.

"Red Heat" by Jimmy Haslip (Yellowjackets) is one of my favorite CD's by any player, any instrument.

I just received Brian Bromberg's "Jaco" and it is very good, featuring the multi-talented bassist on acoustic, fretted, fretless, 5-string and piccolo basses. The arrangements of compositions made famous by Pastorius are excellent. "Continuum," "Teen Town" (two versions), "Portrait of Tracy," "Three Views of a Secret, and "Slang(ish)" are Jaco originals.

Two more CDs you should check out:
Weather Report's - Mysterious Traveller. This one features Alphonso Johnson on bass (former Philadelphian and bassist for Weather Report just before Jaco Pastorious joined). Very nice.
The other is Joe Zawinul and the Zawinul Syndicate - World Tour. This live recording features Victor Bailey on bass. Definately nice bass done live.
Check em out!

The Zawinul Syndicate World Tour also has Richard Bona in the group. I don't know if he plays bass or percussion or both.

On the World Tour double cd Richard Bona does bass & vocals on three songs: N’awlins, Indiscretions (one of my favorite tunes on the cd) and Caribbean Anecdotes. Victor Bailey plays bass on all the rest.
