If I had to pick my favourite Jamerson line, this track recorded 40 years ago would be it. Pure genius from start to end. I'm not worthy, but I had to try it, it was too tempting. E&OE

YOUTUBE IS KILLING THE AUDIO QUALITY AT THE MOMENT - SORRY, BUT THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THE CRAZY VOLUME CHANGES :(

  • Hey, great job! Just a quick question - I also use a P and the PJB Bass Buddy, what are your settings on it for this kind of tone? It seems to have flat EQ, compressor off, but active setting on? Am I getting this right?

  • Cheers. That's right - I have an EMG-P active pickup on this bass.

  • Man, great job! You are a better man than me for playing this memorized! You nailed almost every note exact to the music! It appears as though your videos have the same annoying noise gate that mine have. I think youtube thinks they are helping the situation, where, in fact, they are messing it up more!

  • Cheers - I hope YT convert it back to the original uncompressed track eventually...

  • Great stuff man. Dead on!

  • Cheers!

see all

  • this is a crazy bassline and brilliant at the same time!

  • helluva ear dude, do u score music for marching bands if not u need to enter those waters you could clean up because more and more high schools are looking for arrangements true to the original score of the songs they play and not watered down versions even college's

  • well played sir. you're right it is a great line, how does a man come up with music like that, what a legend.

  • personally I prefer the bassline to Ain't no mountain high enough.

  • Great song, great version!! Now I am studying this song, it seems to be easy but removing his time jeje. Very good work.

  • Alright thanks for answering, EMG active pickup I wouldnt have guessed, do you have a preamp in there as well?
