EVERYTHING Tommy Shannon did with SRV was tasteful and well done.  Crossfire is one of my faves - it just pounds at you!

Here's a couple fun, obscure, hard psych/prog riff-based gems:

Night Sun- Got a Bone of my Own (to skip long intro segment, ff to ~2:50)



Curved Air- UHF

Marco Sin in the old new wave group Dirty Looks was a great bass player. Brutal attack, like here in They got me covered
But he could be quite melodic too, as in Disappearing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEeygo4tp1Q&feature=related

Mel Schacher is one of my all time favorites. 



Check out the Veleno that Mark Farner is using.  All Aluminum guitar!  Don Brewer's top is interesting to say the least..... :gay:

When my friend played me this song off of the old double Live Album it made me literally go and buy a bass guitar and learn how to play it.

Lovin' Into The Sun!
Saw GFR in '71
Good FUN!!

Inside Lookin' Out was KILLER too. You all probly know that was an Animals cover.

Who remembers Iron Butterfly?
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida is one of the best riffs ever!
