You've got a pretty good Jaco MIDI style, but it is what it is--instantly recognizable and therefore not usable for more than a few tracks. Pino's playing is much more pop oriented and suitable for a far wider range of music.
It's not that he gets so slidey on the thing, although he always slips in a lick or two to let you know it's fretless, but the timbre of the axe itself. Sometimes it sounds like it's chorused or something, but it's not--just fingers and strings.
Some prime examples are Don Henley's "Sunset Grill," Paul Young's "Every Time You Go Away," and John Mayer's "Good Love Is On The Way."
I'd love to see him added to the arsenal, backed up by MIDI or whatever you have to do so that there is notation. I might pay for an upgrade to learn some of this guy's chops.

This is partly a bump, but mainly a refinement of the original request. I had originally asked specifically for a Pino Palladino style (which I would still love to see), but the more I think about it the more I think a general fretless Style would be useful to many users.
Its use in jazz should speak for itself. But the more I listen to pop music (I keep softrockradio.net running in the background much of the time via Winamp), the more I hear fretless bass being used. It is often very subtle if all you are listening to is the notes themselves as there may be only a lick or two that shouts "fretless." However, the instrument has a unique, almost horn-like timbre which would be a good thing for anyone to have in their arsenal.
Tony Franklin (ex-Mr. Big) and Pino Palladino (hired gun par excellence) are most closely identified with the instrument in pop and rock music, but there are obviously others. Jaco goes without saying, but I'm actually trying to get away from anything so distinctive. I've heard fretless in tunes by Rod Stewart, Paul Simon, Bonnie Raitt, and many others I can't name. In other words, fretless is likely to turn up almost anywhere.
If all that happened was to make fretless versions of existing Real Tracks I'd be happy, but more distinctive stuff would be welcome, too. I hope that others will add their thoughtful support to this suggestion.
