I remember this record, but will give it a fresh listen tonight. After which I will probably move to Madison, Wisconsin, assuming that Davis is still teaching. :)

James Jamerson is indeed the first alternative who came to mind 
(followed by Duck Dunn), but I was adhering to a strict genre taxonomy, 
thinking, well, it's not pop/rock but more pop/R&B.  But if you want to 
compare them directly, I'd say the roles of the bass are still different 
between the two: groove (JJ) vs second-guitar-melody in a lot of places 
(Richard Davis).  

Both fine records, though.
