| World's Prettiest Bassline (James Jamerson, 1970) |
 |
The Jackson 5 performed Darling Dear on their
third album (The Third Album). James Jamerson
played bass on this selection with a style
and fluency seldom heard in common hours. The
bassline is so soulful and beautiful that
many musicians speak of having "sung" the
bassline instead of the equally great lead
vocal line delivered by the gifted and
prodigious Michael Jackson. The bassline
would qualify as a "wonder of the world"
since it is such a bold departure from
anything heard at that time, or since. James
Jamerson is arguably the greatest bass player
to ever live. He played on more number 1 hit
records than any other bassist, or musician
in the history of popular music. He died a
bitter and brokenhearted man since he was
neither adequately compensated or recognized
for his immeasurable contributions to the
spirit and practice of bass playing.
