Definitely check out Billy with Niacin. I especially like his work covering the Weather Report stuff.

Roger Waters of Pink Floyd did some decent lead bass lines on Piper at the Gates of Dawn, or in other words, before he was a major songwriter for the band. Although, a good number of them alter between lead and rhythm, so I don't know if you'd count him.

Other than that, I'd say you've got a pretty good list so far, except how f***ing long it took before someone mentioned Stanley Clarke.
