Did someone else play the lines cuz Entwistle is a complete dud.

Another R and B is Michael Henderson he played Bass with alot of artists like Norman Connor in ""YOUR ARE MY STARSHIP" which MICHAEL HENDERSON wrote and played the bass and sang this beautiful song plus many others WIDE RECEIVER you should do little document he deserves it, thank you

Brilliant videos John. Been playing myself for years and only recently have started my deep dive into James Jamersons work. I love all the videos. Paul McCartney's being my favourite. I hope you make some more one day..! Cheers John. Brilliant videos and your playing is amazing too. Mark.

I was a session musician for 50 years.I played bass guitar.The reason why he was so good He didn't have to compete with tons of distorted guitar.There was a wide open place for him to add and embellish.The music and he was incredible at it

THank you for covering Love Aint for Keeping. Few realize how creatively John filled in the aural spectrum on Who's Next - that short song has exquisite bass lines that I never really paid attention to, so kudos to covering it. I do wish you had covered Getting in Tune - the beginning "solo' lines and ending phrases are so melodic!

Sea and Sand is wonderful. In fact I just recorded my cover of it yesterday before I watched this video.

Great videos, man. Thx for that! Sting didnt present Roxanne to the band as a Tango, but as a Bossanova. Not Buenos Aires, but Rio! ;-) Our luck that Copelands energy was there to make this gem ethernal!!!! Long live the Beatles of the 80s!!!

Entwhistle played the My Generation track with a pick.

Love the sound of your bass. Truly an improvement above the standard P.

While being drunk and laying on the floor they say jamerson recorded whats going on by marvin gaye in one take 👺🔥

Great bass tones with that Jaguar. How balanced is it?

Great tone and playing

If you only had one chance to introduce an album to someone NOT familiar with The Who imo, it would be Quadrophenia. Their most complete album, musically and lyrically. And Entwistle's bass playing is fluid, percussive, and overall just fantastic! Great work and never gets old.

Like the sound of that Jag bass.

I'm 77 years old I was a Jamerson clone. You've done the best breakdown of Igor that I've ever heard. Great job!

He had a God given talent will never be forgotten

A truly gifted musician covering a truly gifted musician. God bless you Sir. Love from England.

Either you played something wrong or you need til re-tune your bass!

As a bassist since 69 great job on this. Even though as you said some of these are not your style. It is good to step out of the box every now and then. Someday you may be playing one of your own compositions and think yourself. You know jamerson would have done this little thing right here and then you will will put that in there.

Same ole song is the 4 tops

Such a great video...I appreciate this one. What amazing bass lines. That Stevie Wonder song has such a wild bass line. I've been working on Get Ready and tried that a-note with the open note and with the e-string and have read so many times not to use an open string. But when I use the e-string for the a-note, it rings too long and I'd have to try to mute it, but if I hit the open string, it's not only easier to play but also mutes immediately because you gotta hit the d-note on that fifth fret right away. So, I decided open a-note is the way to go...to hear from you that that's what jamerson did...done deal! Still working on that chorus now at .9x speed because that choris is still fast for me at normal speed....with some practice I'll get it down at normal speed. Thanks again for this vid! Will check out your others.

Using Rotosound strings really made the difference, their mechanical properties really distinguish them from the flat jazz sound of the fifties and sixties. Chris Squire and Geddy Lee pushed it further but the Ox rules just the same.

Thank you for this, this was amazing.. you should fight that copyright strike cuz it's not the same, you play over it it's not that long, I can't believe there's a copyright on that

Sting makes excellent use of negative space that helps create tension.

Omg. When are the fanatics gonna realize the evidence is all out there how the Beatles were not the creators of the majority of their music, nor did they play on all their albums. WAKE UP!

Legends of Bass did a great job. A couple of key points - some of the best bass lines in the Who canon came from Townshend - just listen to Pete's unmatched demos. Also, JE himself said he liked a lot of Pete's lines so much he did not change them. Most of course, he did change, but certainly not all. I saw the Who twice in '76 - great stuff. The other point is, as unhappy as Townshend was with the tapes tour '73, there are many b&w videos from that tour that show how successful they did perform parts of Quadrophenia. One huge problem was that 60's Britian celebreated in Quad was TOTALLY foreign to USA fans. They had no idea what the songs were about. Many had never heard the album. There is nothing remotely similar in our culture. Finally, I know it's sacriliege but the vinyl, original mix of Quad was boring and claustrophobic as hell. It was remixed by JE, in fact. Just listen to Townshend's jaw-dropping demo of Punk & Godfather vs. the original Quad version. Anyway, excellent video.

What a treat to find this! He is one of my favorite bass players and one of the reasons why I play like I do

Your audio quality is horrible

Thank you so much!

Thought I bought Tommy from the used record shop and instead was treated to Quadrophenia. Was blown away!

A really nice piece - thanks for posting it. For me, it's James Jamerson's playing on'You Can't Hurry Love.' That bass line has been used on so many tunes, such as Stevie Wonder's 'Part Time Lover', Hall & Oates' 'Maneater,' and Phil Collins 'Two Hearts' (co-wrote by Lamont Dozier!).

THX for this Video. Can you tell me something about the Bass and Amp settings to get thas sound?

Great job 👍🏻🤘🏻

You should consider The Police’s “Flexible Strategies” album which is a collection of B - sides and tracks that never made it to the studio albums.

Nice work my man. For the record, the Marshall cabs of so much fame are 4 X 12 cabs, not 2 X 12 as you mentioned. Kinda crucial. Kinda became the signature of any rock band’s backline who wanted to push it just a little further, just over the top. Two 4 X 12 cabs stacked is a full stack, and that just screams, “I am a true rock and roller, respect me and my taste in gear, and fear me and my power which could bruise your very soul!” Yep. That’s what it screams.

Motown Bass in general was always outstanding. Whether it was Jamerson , Babbit or who ever else they had. Jamersons very active way of playing hooked me. Hes a legend.

woah we play the same MIJ Jag, down to the color......... very cool

are those flatwounds?

Love your channel!❤

Are you playing roundwounds ?

Great!

I'll bet dollars to dougnuts that John Paul Jones got his style from James..

WOW!! Each note you hit was clean as hell!! Listening to you on bass is like listening to El Estepario on drums!

I found some conflict Carole Kaye claims to have worked on Bernadette kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2WtiKSBa9dphJYsi=W-0lOzOJk5dCY_DI

This is a good summary of Stings bass lines. Well done.

thx for the video, this is helping me relight the fire under my ass to keep practicing bass

Voted millennium best bass player seen him 1997 live Quadrophenia for 5:15 he played a bass solo must say Bravissimo ☆☆☆☆☆

No small ffeat to play Jamerson's part on "I Was Made To Love Her". But you nailed it impressively. I don't think any songwriter, producer, or vocal artist could conceive a bass part for their music like what Jamerson would come up with on the spot. He possessed such a great musical sense.He seems always to be seeking out interesting non chord tones and inversions that make every song he plays on uniquely appealling. The amount of shear talent that Berry Gordy was able to assemble for his record label is just astonishing. What an era.
