Short clip on Jamerson`s influence in the 60s bass playing. He was the most influencial electric bassist before Pastorius, allthough we didn´t know who was playing.Records didn´t tell the line up of bands.

I see people PLAY his bass lines and that's ok but he INVENTED those bass lines. I've yet to hear anyone anywhere at any level do what he did, peroid

@behjoh you are talking apples and oranges in a way. Fusion bass was a very self gratifying type of medium. Support and a hey hey look at me kind of thing. Weather report etc..
Jamerson was all about groove pocket support, and being GREAT at it made him what he is. Jaco was wonderful for what he was, as was Jamerson.
It's hard to compare the two. How do we compare edgar mayer to cliff burton?
Not objective, just subjective. Both great! Who is better? who cares! I enjoy them both!

Yeah Jaco was great, but he can't even touch Jamerson's parts on the album What's Going On

@behjoh For musicians - certainly. For commercial pop? Music that most people know? Jamerson, Babbit - those were the motown boys. After that? Macca for making bass LOUD. Carol Kaye for putting funk into white music!!.... Jaco was most certainly THE bass playing talent for many many years - but he's influential to players who wanna be like Jaco. These cats were players of music that communicated to the masses...

@behjoh Even so, before Jaco's parents had even met & conceived him, Jamerson had changed the course of electric bass playing.
