Which album due you believe showcases Johns ability as a bassist. Take into consideration the tightness, feel and wheter it just sounds good.
In my opinion it would either be jazz, which shows how tight John and roger were and the bass lines are just imaginative - bicycle race
or ANATO, mainly due to the fact that it is quite loud on the album and they are fun too play
and finally Queen 2, which really does have brillaint bass riffs, such a pity that the bass in the mix is very low in most songs and people could have trouble distinguishing it.
But if i had to pick one it would be jazz.

ADATR. Because of The Millionaire Waltz
yeh that is an amazing bass line and quite difficult to play and not make some kind of a mistake and i am guessing that john and freddie would have recoreded the bass and piano backtrack live.
The Game. Dragon Attack, Another One Bites the Dust, and Crazy Little Thing all show him at his best.
i Dont know about album, but I'll name my favorite songs where you can really here his bass:
AOBTD
UNDER-PRESSURE
LIAR

Not to mention the bass improv at the end of Sail Away Sweet Sister. And Don't try suicide is another heavily bass-centric song.

I love how suddenly everyone is paying attention to John when YEARS ago people didn't like him.
Okay...do you speak FOR EVERYONE???
I dont think so!!!
I dont think so!!!
"You`re my best friend" and "I`m going Slightly mad" are great!
Take care

I would say "The Game"
I'd say ADATR (actually only because it has The Millionaire Waltz on it), and like the most people are saying 'The Game'
Gotta say The Game
yeh the game has got great bass riffs.
Under Pressure and Dragon Attack are my fav bass riffs, but the album with the best bass I would say is QueenII
A Day At The Races, not only for Millionaire Waltz, is the best Sound of John, he used the Music Man bass ,and the Sound is GREAT, listen the bass lines arrangements in Long Away.
