Well, I have lot of fretless albums favorites: I would start with the mighty Uzeb, especially "noisy nights" , "fast emotion" and "world tour"...Alain Caron is on fire! some others must have are Jaco's first album and Weather Report's "black market" and "heavy weather" with Jaco on both and Alphonso Johnson on "black..." '70 fretless stuff with Chick Corea's "secret agent" (featuring Bunny Brunel) and with "masques" by Brand X (with Percy Jones on bass). In the pop field I like Paul Young's first albums (Pino Palladino!!) and Lou Reed's "live in Italy" featuring Fernando Saunders...We mustn't forget Yellowjackets and the great Jimmy Haslip, my favorites are "shades", "politics" and "the spin".
Marcus Miller plays some nasty fretless on his solo "the sun don't lie" and on "double vision" by Bob james/David Sanborn. The list could go on forever, but I want to mention also "illicit" by Tribal Tech (with Gary Willis), "beyond words" by Mark Egan, "momentum" by Bunny Brunel, Alain Caron's "le band" and a metal album , "focus" by Cynic, featuring Sean Malone...
Yeah good choice
I like also the title "Matinee Idol" from YellowJackets
