Stevie Wonder King!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[AznVi3tx]

This song makes me dance to the groove bitch!

[movie3king]

WOOW I didn't expect his version to be so original!

[ilovety65]

cool spin off the etta james version, thanx for posting!

[404kimo808]

WOW! THAT IS ALL I CAN SAY!

[Patequi]

Larry Graham who himself brought a new style of thumping bass playing to funk-has mentioned J J as an early influence. J J like many other soul, RnB androck n roller bass players in particualr Billy Haley & The Comets bassist picked up chops from the late Cuban bass player-co-creator of the mambo, Israel Lopez the immortal Cachao

[HistoryInvestigator]

Love this Song!

[kroneage]

Stevie took this song out of Etta's blues and into the sunshine where it belongs. Exactly where the writers intended it to be. A notch up from Glenn Miller in the 1942 original.

Originally I thought Nat King Cole's cover (recorded 1956) 5 yrs before Etta's was the best. Followed by the First Lady of Song Ella Fitzgerald's, then Etta. But I gotta put Stevie up there now, that I've heard it! Thanks for uploading this! :D

[sexymama1966]

etta james is the best but this one can be played at a discotheque back then, for sure:)

[IronPillaz]

This is just how Stevie would do it.. I love Etta Jame's version still though.. and appreciate Beyonce's version too..

[Newbaby76]

I never this version. I don't which is better.

[RussellAthletics]

I think I now love this version better than Etta James. He gives it some more flavor. I didn't know that he also perform this song.

[motowninvestor]

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!!!!!

[motowninvestor]

I absolutely LOVE the way Stevie sings this SONG!!!! OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!!!!! . . . okay, I'm officially done.

[dottiethedot]

WOW! Great!

[mainattraction5150]

Pure Bliss!!!! I love Stevie. Thanks for the post. i THOUGHT THIS WHOLE ALBUM HAD A GREAT VIBE.

[mikeroephonics]

Who is playing bass on this tune? Wowza!!!

[sunmoonsword]

James Jamerson - Bass Virtuoso who's career had been overlooked while he was alive :(

[celticsoulboy]

Bassist is James Jamerson who played bass in a the Motown House band... a genius who revolutionsed the art of playing bass and in many ways invited a lot of the funk and disco bass which followed... sadly he died a poor man which is IMHO a tragedy. Still this is a terrific performance from both JJ and Stevie...

[Bluesmen88]

James Jamerson was one of the greatest electric bassists to ever live, hands down.

[celticsoulboy]

Couldn't agree more -there are great jazz bassists and funk bassists such as Nils Pedersen and Stanley Clarke - and guys such as Robbie Shakespeare who put the bass upfront in Reggae music but JJ turned the role of the bass in popular music on it's head by playing on the beat, against the beat, in a contrapuntal style and with flourishes and grace notes which were unheard of at the time - a legend!

[Bluesmen88]

His bass lines in 'For Once in My Life' and 'What's Going On' by Marvin Gaye are two of my favorites. JJ's melodic approach to playing was a great complement to the Motown sound, and bass playing in general.

[celticsoulboy]

Agree with you about For Once in my Life... I also like My Cherie Amour, I was made to love here and Its a Shame by the Detroit Spinners.... you have great taste my friend!

[spritualdiary]

@celticsoulboy

Jamerson for ever

[Quaisheezy]
