    Will Lee is a phenomenal bass player as well. Very underrated outside of the music industry

      Overrated? Every vid of him i watch people say how wonderful he is, personally i dont like his form, alot of hand movements when he can just place a finger in the right fret.

      @@valdesyur Switching hand position like that has a lot to do with the muting and phrasing. The 1 finger per fret stuff is fine and dandy for legato playing.

      @@mjarrala I think sliding the hand fret to fret makes more legato than just releasing a finger and resting it on the same string spot. or maybe not, im not a bass player myself haha

      @@valdesyur how can you say Will Lee is overrated when you don’t even play yourself. Will Lee was a phenomenal bass player, hence the reason he was one of the most asked for studio players in the 70’s. Or look back to some video’s from the 80’s, when he was around Steve Gadd and Richard Tee quite frequently, he’s incredible.

    That should be a great film, finally giving exposure to the musicians behind the music that was the soundtrack to my life.

    when I was young and playing bass, I often wondered who the bassist were on the records, I knew one thing for sure, the motown groove had a guy that had it all together....thank you James Jamerson

    When is this WHOLE movie going to be released on DVD???????

      First, we have to finish digitally transferring 72,000 feet of negative (32 hours, plus audio) to HD. A DVD will then be released after the film has had a theatrical release, pay per view run, and been broadcast on TV. facebook.com/SESSIONMEN1

    It's too bad there isn't more footage of Jamerson playing. There aren't even that many still pictures.

    James Jamerson was the MAIN bassist at Motown -his contribution is beyond category. You name a Motown hit he played bass on it along with Clarence Isbell

    REALLY disappointed that Will didn't know that the Gladys session was few years earlier, AND JJ was really a jazz cat who played R&B, henceforth the imagination

      You are incorrect. Marvin Gaye recorded this song starting 2/3/67 and ending on 4/10/67. Gladys Knight & The Pips recorded it on 6/17/67.

  • @guitarfend

    Pretty sure Gladys' version came out first.

    • @stevewight6563
      @stevewight6563 4 года назад +2

      That's correct, but it was first recorded by The Miracles, then Marvin Gaye, and finally by Gladys & The Ps.
