Jermaine J, pretty good!

Working away here, listening to a live Jackson 5 recording and Jermaine is pretty hot on that bass!

Wonder why he wasn't used for the recordings. (Wilton Felder on most of the early ones, I understand sounds like he used a pick, whereas Jermaine sounds like fingers)

I like to think that Motown was pretty strict in their productions. The Motown Machine was well oiled with session players so Jermaine had no need to be on the bass in studio sessions. Not sure if that changed when he went solo. On 'Lets Get Serious' it could have been him on bass or Nathan Watts, I am not sure. But I have seen videos of him playing and singing that song live.
