Any suggestions? Just looking for some music (of any genre really) that incorporates some good String Bass or Cello parts.

    For me

    Yo-YO Ma - Bach Suits or mstislav rostropovich Bach suits. Both are good.

    ^ plays violin...

    YoYo Ma is a no brainer for comtemporary cello works.

    +1 on Chris' Rostopovich rec. Often overlooked...
    Check out his Brahms' Cello Sonatas with Rudolf Serkin at the keyboards (Deutsche Grammophon 410 510-2)

    Also overlooked is Pablo Casals, probably the first, great, modern cellist.
    More later,
    Tour...

    My personal favorite album - 'Wood'. Track 9, solo upright bass doing the Beatles 'Come Together'. NEAT stuff.

    I'd pick up the Bach cello suites by Janos Starker....Mercury released it in hybrid SACD
