James Jamerson - Heard It Through the Grapevine - couldn't resist republishing

In 2020, Rolling Stone, ranked him - “the number one greatest bassist of all time”

Played on twenty three Billboard Hot 100 Number One hits and fifty six R&B number one hits

Listen to this isolated version of his bass track along with Gladys Knight’s extraordinary vocal.

This is hard enough to play on guitar, let alone a large Fender Precision Bass - with one finger

This is just one instrument and one voice. When the other tracks are revealed, the musicians are just playing straight up.

If you don’t get up and dance…you have to stay after school.
