James Jamerson wrote the book on pop/soul/funk/R&B bass playing. His influence was enormous.

Another winner 👏🏽 I was lucky to come up in an environment sensitive to the music-*makers*. Or of their existence, anyway, ‘cause of course in the early days, we didn’t know their names…(so combined tiny bits of actual knowledge with wild speculations)…which is why the ‘modern era’ of these documentaries and KZbins and etc are such blessings. It is ALSO why there’s ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE for reactors who go *years* listening to music *without* educating themselves on the background, history, and *musical context* of what they’re “listening” to! 😤 You guys are the RAREST of exception! Bravo!👏🏽🏆🙇🏽♀

New Stax documentary is definitely worth your time.

Love that you're getting to this. It's one of the best music docs I've seen. Another one for your list is "Searching for Sugarman," which is music and my all-time favorite doc.

It’s a damn shame that you guys lost the Likes and comments from the first one. Looks like they got you for the prolonged segment of the live performance, or so I’m guessing. But thanks for following up with Part 2 faster than in the past. Or at least it seems faster.

...And let's, ALSO, NOT forget: The Andantes! Marlene Barrow, Louvain Demps & Jackie Hicks were the background vocalists on over 95% of Motown's recordings (and ALL of the hit singles), beginning in 1962 and running through 1972 [the cusp of the sell-off to Cali.]. The Andantes sang backgrounds, harmonies and other "extra flavor" vocals on OVER 20,000 MOTOWN songs (and worked for OTHER artists and labels, as WELL!). [And they are NOT considered part of/included in: The Funk Brothers!] --Not to seem to diminish anyone, in ANY way, but: Record labels and other music "houses" were built as factories [🔞😡😡🤬🤬]. Essentially: Prior to: The Beach Boys, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, etc. the GREATEST musical "groups" (collectives, really) were all "house bands" for labels: including: those who worked at Chess Records (and whom all of the aforementioned artists, & all of their contemporaries!, IDOLIZED and tried to imitate!), in Chicago; The Wrecking Crew (out in l.a. -starting with phil spectpr and Larry Levine's "Wall Of Sound"); The Funk Brothers; The Mar-Keys [a slightly modified version of whom became Otis Redding's regular and touring outfit! (the majority of whom died in the plane crash with him 😭😭😭😭)]/Booker T. & the M.G.s (at Stax!); The Muscle Shoals "Swampers" [versions 1, 2 AND 3!]; The Hi Rhythm Section [Hi Records/Memphis Soul]; (Later "M.F.S.B." -which became: the SalSoul Orchestra (in N.Y.)- out of Gamble & Huff's Philly stronghold.!) ...Those are the ones *I* can name "off top".... I am certain there are several more! ...but, yes: Really! This was an era of SPECTACULAR musicianship and skill and co-work (and a FABULOUSLY weak and ugly time for: personal acknowledgement and compensation for individuals AND groups of people!, who worked IN these places and created all of this genius! 🤬🤑)! It, STILL, resonates to this day! ❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 🤘🤘

Sorry to let you know, but unfortunately they never got what they should have in terms of wealth and recognition. It’s really a shame. As Paul Reiser said, without the Funk Brothers there would be no Motown. 😢
