Excuse me a moment while I get down.

James Jamerson played bass on both Marvin and Gladys' version. Showing his genius both times.

[Mike Johnson]

and both Miracles versions!  so 4 times!

There's a good mini doc on YouTube about James Jamerson. He is from Edisto Island, one the sea islands off the coast of Georgia. Home grown genius!

Many years ago I was listening to a weekend, late-night oldies show and this tune came on. But something in the studio went wrong because it just played over and over, like the record turntable was set to replay and the D.J. was in another room having fun with the clean-up gal! Who knows? After about the fifteenth play, I had to shut my radio off due to my hands and feet getting sore from too much clappin' and stompin'. MAN, this a good one! Thankyou very much Gladys. You and the Pips NAILED IT.

Thanks for the reply; I remember in 1961 when I first heard "Every Beat of My Heart", and back then they were known only as The Pips, I was instantly hooked...

They are one of the few acts who, in my opinion, have never released an inferior recording...

Thanks again...

Shut up.
