I don't think ol' Rog plays on most of P(3DO), it's more likely Gilmour.

1. ' set the controls for the heart of the sun ' - here roger begins to emerge as a composer & this early masterpiece is built on the bass riff like..
2.' money ' - it's the bass that makes this radio hit + the warm deep bass we get treated to in ' breathe ' & 'us & them '; we had heard the rich analog bass sound before on the beatles ' abbey road ' but DSOTM influenced/defined the whole 70's state of the art studio sound
3.' another brick pt2 ' - simple but effective; the heavy sound employed on ' in the flesh ',' young lust ' , & ' ABP2 ' propell & drive the songs

Well, I would say P(TDO), but that one is in the gray area, so I'll omit it.

1. AHM
2. ABITW pt 1
3. Have a Cigar
Honorable mention: Money (one of the most famous bass work of all time...gotta mention it)

That little bass solo in the beginning of Pigs is pretty good, I'd just like to mention that one.
