Tips And Comments:
- Playing Technique: Played right on the neck pickup with middle through high strength. Just one finger used. Applying good pressure with the tip of the finger should help get some attack comined with the dampening of strings. Just neck pickup with some tone rolled down.
- Gear Sound: Just DI directly on some little compression and added some low mids on eq. Used a sponge cut in half placed on the low part of the bridge.
- About The Song: I think it turned out good enough. Maybe some tempo troubles here and there. It's obviously a hard line, harder than it looks, specially trying to emulate some of the sound and using one finger, thing that i'm not very used to. Positions are just made by me since there's no footage to get some help. I just tried to use lots of open strings on the chorus, since i know Jamerson used them, but mostly i tried to get a comfortable enough position.

Took me 3/4 years to learn this song, and I had been playing bass for 7 years... That goes to show how much mastery Jamerson had shown in his bass lines, and how groundbreaking he was in the role of the bass guitar.
@@LemonPoIIock Well, I would do small sections at a time (1-2 bars), and spend an hour trying to perfect the syncopation, and memorise it on each section.
Yes, I could learn it in a few hours, but I would not be comfortable playing it. Plus, I was not determined to learn as fast as possible. I took my time doing it,
Darling Dear by Jackson 5 like that too. It took me a while to get most of it, although I am still haven't finished learning the song yet.
@@LemonPoIIock I've been playing for two and have been having a super hard time with the choruses on this song. Borderline making me want to quit altogether LOL, some people just ain't cut out for music or just learn at different paces.
It's hard to stay in rhythm.
I've only been playing for 2 lonths and am only 40s into the video haha. The amount that I'm learning about how to harmonize with a key/chord has added to every genre I play with my band mates and they have already noticed. James is a masterclass on how to groove with technical finesse and wow with just one finger and a beat. I forwent all slap and tone shaping when I found him so I could focus on his lessons.
you’re amazing for not giving up man, hope you’re happy with how far you’ve come!
I like how you played it with only one finger like jamerson did
idk, loosing a lot of feel
You beat me to it
👌
The way it should be. His stuff always sounds a little off with regular playing. I'm more of a guitarist but been trying to get this down with the one finger technique.
This is why Jamerson was nicknamed " the hook".
I had no idea this song had such a beautiful bass line!
and that's because it's a beautiful song :)
Well the bass is actually pretty upfront in the mix. Epic song
@@terreausore2435 Yea thats exactly what i said?
Then you don't know the power of James Jamerson then!
Vulfpeck did an excellent visualization of the bass on this song along with some of Jamerson’s other work.
Don't mind me, just marking the parts I need to practice
Chorus 0:44
Chorus 1:14
Bridge 1:30 (Timing)
Open string lick 1:57
Chorus 2:05
Ending 2:22
Well lol I do mind cuz it helps me too
=D
Good call, I should mark the places I need to practice too.
0:00 through 3:03
Thanks for the idea!
Imma mark the parts I need to practice:
3:04
I do not own a bass :( :( :(
Nicely done. Impeccable timing and you nailed it.
Yep, just when I thought I was getting the hang of the song - whoops, key change in the bridge, and now I have to learn the song all over again!
I really appreciate you notating the chords over the line. It's so helpful to see how the line relates to the chord progression.
There are two things that I like with your channel: (1) the guitar chords and bass tabs; (2) the fact that you are accompanying the song (with vocals & entire band) with the bass guitar.
Other channels mute the vocals, or just isolated bass.
Keep it up. Pure talent.
I appreciate the use of the sponge :D
What is that for?
@@antoniousai1989 I may assume that it's there to decrease the level of sustain without muting the strings with a right hand
Antonio Usai the sponge mutes the strings to better emulate the muted tone that James Jamerson had. Jamerson played on flatwound strings and never changed/cleaned his strings, so they had a more dead, thumpy sound to them.
asharpinfinity Fender basses used to come with mutes too. They were underneath the pickup covers that used to come with them.
60 years and still the coolest bass line !!!
Truth!! 😎
I got my bass a couple of weeks ago, but I’ve played drums for 5 years, so I’ve had musical experience. This is the first song I wanted to learn and now I know almost all of it so thanks
you can play that as a 2 weeks beginner ? Wow congrats man
Guillaume B yeah idk how honestly i just had a thing for bass and i was good at it
I've been playing for a little more than two years and I can't play this song past 3/4 speed.
@@ZodiacEntertainment2 damn. how old are you
@@galaxyblitzy9229 23. I regret not starting at 14, feel like I'm never gonna be able to get good enough to make anything worth listening to.
With this song the part that constantly trips me up at full speed is the key change; I can play up through the bridge until the key change and then I start making mistakes because my hands still want to use the open strings on the ascending chromatic bits.
I am ashamed to say that I never realized how amazing this bass line is! Thank you so much! Going to learn this one well now.
This has got to be in my top 5 favorite bass lines of all time. I just love it.
When I see YOUR cover in the search results.... I’m like YYYYYYEEEESSSSS!
I bought my bass about two months ago and I am now trying my hand at this. It's been three days and I now know how to play the verses and the first two choruses and I have an idea of how the bridge should go! So far I love playing it and this video has been soooo helpful!
check out Otis Redding Dock o' the Bay bassline- simpler but super killer
How’s your bass playing going now?
That's exactly where I am as well
Come and get your love - redbone
I've only been playing for like 3 months and I've tried to tackle this. I think I bite off more than I can chew but still gonna keep at it. 😂
how's it going?
I've been playing a year and a half and this is deceptively tricky. I'm trying to learn this and ABBA's Dancing Queen which is actually hard. I keep hoping @CoverSolutions
will do Sister Sledge Thinking of You.
ive been playing for 5 months already and I've also tried this bass line but for some reason i still suck :( , guess ill practice harder (my wrists hurt a lot tho )
MrBuda watch some videos on proper technique your wrist shouldn’t be hurting that badly unless something is already wrong with it in which case you may need to adjust your technique which it sounds like you need to do anyway. Make sure the neck is up high enough for starters and not lateral with the bass body and floor, your bass should sit at an angle whether in your lap or standing.
@@Iofflight78 i will look into it ,but in general it has always hurt to some degree , maybe i should go to the doctor , ironically the pain started when i started picking up the bass more , i wouldn't say i have the worst posture but i do think that my early days probably affected my wrist from the fact that i didn't knew anything about bass postures and the effects etc.
Came here to learn this song(newbie) only to end up crying a little bit right after the bridge. Made me miss my son whom we had to leave in our home country, while working abroad so we could provide for him a lot better and afford his medical treatment. Miss you anak this one’s for you❤
RIP Tammi Terrell. Blessed I'm able to hear her amazing voice.
Oh man the key change kills me everytime
yep same here. still don't get it without the video :D
Jamerson was and is still one of the best bassists of all time, he’s a legend. ✌️😙
Marvin Gaye is one of my favorite to play on bass. Keep up on the great work! Peace from Greece.
Fantastic version. Such an innovative player he was
IMO this is one of the greatest songs of all time. Thanks for posting this. Is it just me or does this song NEVER land on the I chord, no matter what key they're in? It seems like they always elide to the vi chord, unless it's IN minor! Or, they'll use the ii or the IV instead. Those coupled with the super dramatic hanging half-diminished chord at the beginning, It gives the song this powerful, unresolved feeling. It keeps sounding like it's getting there (IV chord), then falling back to trying to get there (half diminished), etc. That extremely active bass line really helps underline, build and support this tension. It's like no other song I've ever heard. Major kudos to Ashford, Simpson and Jamerson!
I look at the numbers on the screen and press my fingers down on the corresponding frets on my bass.
Thank you for mentioning Ashford and Simpson in addition to the bass wizard James Jameson. All three: Brilliant. 🌠🌠🌠
always a pleasure to hear jamerson's work
legend
who is jamerson
@@liam_7017 only one of the greatest bass players ever
Great job!. And hats off to you sir for "the hook", very nice touch.
Also, the foam insert at the bridge, just like they used to have under the cover of the '62 Precision Bass that Jamerson used.
This just inspired me to actually and finally pick up the bass and learn it. Thank you !!
One of the first big songs I ever learned. Great cover. Would love to see you do more Jamerson, maybe Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day by Stevie Wonder. Always wanted to learn that one. Thanks!
One finger, two fingers, three fingers or a pick. Thanks for all the vids and tabs. Love your “Stay Free” clip.
This is by far your best and smoothest bass cover
my picture favorite stay by me . I love to the sing aint mountain high enough
I love this song! imo the bass line is what makes this song so recognizable. Awesome job as always on the cover.
Note for note ….Nailed it!
It tickles me when people think that there’s some other person that plays like, or is as good as, James Jamerson.
You may think you heard bass performances on this level. Till I ask “Who? Name one person since 1959 that is not a jazz musician that played bass on this level?”
Don’t embarrass yourself.
No bass player in the world ever said “I’m better than James.”
They dare not.
He’s the genuine absolute G.O.A.T. Of the electric bass.
Listen to the melody he generates (from a bass?).
Sorry. The bass is not a melodic instrument.
It was never created to be.
@CoverSolutions, thank you so much! Been waiting for you to cover this song for along time! Cheers from Portugal!
Really nice, dude. It's one thing to play all the right notes, but you really nailed the feel.
This song is deceptively hard
This song is so awesome on bass
Just magic. Beautiful!
I love how you "hooked" it!
oh my god i’m so happy you did the one finger technique dude. i was studying james jamerson and i noticed he uses one finger which is nuts in itself! you did it! wow you’re a fucking legend dude good god
Thank you so much for this.... legendary playing !!
Love this bass line!
Jeez!! THANK YOU! I've been working on this about an hour a day for 3 days and I could not for the life of me figure out the transition from the first main pattern into the 2-012 part of the song. MY TABS WERE WRONG! You're a salvation because I just couldn't get it right and it was driving me crazy.
the bass line is basically jazz bass over a totally pop chorus...the dichotomy between the two styles is what makes 1) Jamerson such a genius on bass and 2) why the chorus bass "pops" so hard and sounds amazing...even to people who have no idea what's going on musically.
OMG great rendition of a complicated bass line, Awesome dude
I don’t even own a bass I just listen to this to hear the bass louder lol
ive been trying to learn this song for so long! THANK YOU!!!
I've watched other videos and Some are very technical and I'm if you were birthed by a bass guitar. You are awesome. Thanks for the videos.
THATA BOOOYY truly a classic and you a real one if this song reminds you of that one disney movie "Remember the Titans" ;p !!!!!!
Thank you so much
-A tuba with a concert 2 weeks away
James Jamerson?
Yup.
That's right :) He played on most of the #1 hits of the Motown era, including this one. Even if I hadn't known beforehand, I would have assumed anyways because his unique approach to bass playing was definitely shown here.
this bass line is going to be the death of me
Sick. 🙏🏼
The best classic
You just changed my life!
Honestly, disco is my favorite genre to play on bass, anyone agree?
If you are refering to the song i would say is mostly R&B or Soul influenced.
ExotiG this song is motown.
CoverSolutions I wasn't referring to this song directly, it just gave me the thought, should've been specific :/
There are a lot of cool disco lines
boi said this disco
I started playin bass few months ago! I've been playing master blaster like crazy and I think this is my next song haha! I love your channel!
that head wave is amazing
Great played!=)
Thank you very much for the cover with tabs, I am going to play this song in school this week, it helped me a lot
Monster bassline!!!
your tone is incredible
Beautiful!!💕💕
Jamerson is a genius
One of my favourites!
I've been waiting for this.
Really good
Talentedddd!!! I feel the vibes
Thanks - this is a great transcription. Amy Winehouse's Tears Dry on Their Own is the same sequence just a third down
Great video! This song has been an ongoing task for me to get better at bass, apriciate your easy to follow video! PS did you know the tab on the media fire website has been taken down? Not sure about the other tracks but just thought you should know : ) Thanks again!
Awesome tutorial 👌🎸😎
Just beautiful!
Amy Winehouse - Tears Dry On Their Own... damn )))a long time, I looking this tab ... tnx man!!!
Wuuulll PARABÉNS 👏👏👏👏👏
Translation: wuuuullll congrats * clap clap clap *
Brilliant man thanks so much!
this is perfect
I hope you do continue to do Motown covers!! Fantastic!
Awesome stuff, could you do "Heard it through the Grapevine" by Gladys Knight & the Pips some time maybe? Don't know if it really is Jamerson on Bass on that track but it sure is one hell of a bassline :)
Pure class
please do Siva by The Smashing Pumpkins!
I really think it's great how you use the sponge to mute the strings and bring back more of the Motown sound
Can you do Emerald by Thin Lizzy?
Brilliant!!
Unbelievable amazing
Thanks awesome 🎶👍
Awesome, man
Super gespielt !!!!!!!!!!!
Marvin Gaye - Let's get it on please :3
Please do whats happening brother by marvin gaye. And good luck. Was trying to figure it out but seems off.
In bass tab what does the curved line mean? For example at : 0:40
Very good... Just wish the volume was louder on the bass
Was James Jamerson the bassist on this recording?
Definitly , yes
You should do some Cake! Like The Distance or No Phone
Tremendous! A++++
its been like 2 years and I still haven't memorized past 2:06
ok now 2:22
Question: I’m playing in a Motown show, and want to get the best tone possible. I already know I want to put flatwound strings on, but it would be helpful to know what you use, or recommend to use, as a mute. What about tone settings?
That used to be so difficult and I just fucking killedd ittttt! Thank you for all the lessons!
Oh, gimme that BASS, baby !
What is that yellow thing next to the pickup?
A piece of sponge used to mute the strings and help get this sound. I used just an old kitchen sponge but you can use better things
Cant find the TAB in the media fire list?
Is it missing?
John Collins Palmer
just go by ear
jamerson would have like it that way
@@subscribetobanbasstabs2599 "just go by ear" with one of the best bassists of all time. lmao
1:13
If you have a new link for tab, can i have? cuz the old link is removed. thanks
