I don't know the bass sax repitoire but do know it is rare. Let me says something about baritone sax recordings.

Gerry Mulligan was an excellent bari player and most of his recordings were from the age of vinyl.

The traditional "swing" reed section was two alto saxes,two tenor saxes,and one baritone sax. You can't go wrong with reed ensemble work with any of the Ellington, Basie,or Thad Jones-Mel Lewis recordings.
