📹 Lesson Details:
Today we’re going to look at an absolute classic that I consider one of the greatest bass lines of all time by one of the greatest bass players of all time!
It’s the song I Was Made To Love Her by Stevie Wonder and the bass line is played by the legendary James Jamerson.
We're going to break it down and look at every aspect of James Jamerson's playing style from 16th Note syncopations to the chromatic lines, the open strings, the skips and everything in between.
This song is a total masterclass in melodic bass line creation.

God played through that man… James usually got a lead sheet with just chords… the rest was him…… UNfuckingBelievable been playing bass for decades… always amazed…. Always

I've read that Jamerson's rule was to never play the chorus the same way twice. I try to follow this as best I can, but it isn't always as easy as one might think.

What always amazes me about the greats like Jameson..Coltrane..Hendrix..ect is that people spend lifetimes breaking down notes and techniques ect. They did none of that. It was just them playing through the natural gift God gave them. These are the true geniuses. This is why I never place someone who studies and learns to play like someone over the original, even if they have mastered copying. The original did not have a blueprint to go off of. They are the creator. That is what a true GOAT is.

I want you bass world to know once and for all that when you hear the word 'bass line' this is the man it came from. It was Jamerson who transformed a 'riff' into a 'line', that is, perhaps due to his jazz roots made the bass interesting over a series of bars in a story like 'line' as different to what was played then. As a matter of fact this is still what is played now and wrongly called bass lines, a figure comprised of one or two bars played again and again IS NOT A BASS LINE. These a are riffs having only 'instant' vertical interest as opposed to horizontal one.

They said he was the only one they knew was a genius at the time.

Jamerson still an under appreciated genius

I played many of his parts including this one for years in a 16 piece soul funk band. This is a wonderful line as it's what's goin on. I never hear anyone talking of willy weeks he did some incredible lines as well.

@polara01

As far as pure Jamerson tone goes, Smokey Robinson's Baby, Baby don't cry is a really good example where his bass was really in your face in the mix with that muted, but still "punchy" tone. It's all there all the way through the fadeout...

How about teaching “Darling Dear” by the Jackson 5?

Jamerson was truly a musical genius

The footage of him in the studio laying on his back, convulsing. Playing some of the best bass lines ever. Is completely mind-blowing.

Love to see someone covering Jamerson's technique and approach since there isn't much of that on RU-vid. Every time I hear a Jamerson bass line, I can't help but smile. His genius is timeless.

I remember learning that bass line when I was a teenager playing in a band. At the time I was playing rhythm guitar but I loved the bass. I went on to play bass in another band. Now at the age of seventy one I still play guitar and sing but I have fond memories of that time in the sixties!!!!❤

James Jamerson bass is talking the lyric this is what so special. Motown is unique, back then the instruments version was played in elevators and restaurants.
