Look into Duff McKagen, most under rated bass player in music even though he played in Rock's most over rated band
 
I need some good songs which will sound good on a solo bass guitar. I'm interested in any sort of music genre, any era and any band/artist.

Many thanks in advance.
 
Come Together by the Beatles is largely just bass and vocals. The guitar and keyboards come in a bit toward the middle, but the bass is the driving instrument.
 
Anything by Primus. My Name is Mud is a good one, but it's hard to play:
