rw3cja Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Hello! I though you would like to know that there is a new post on my blog 'Jamerson Analysed'. The track is 'Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing' by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell. This track, and the others that I have analysed can be found here http://jamersonanalysed.blogspot.co.uk/ Hope you enjoy it! Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-soar Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Fine piece, full of understanding, structured explaination and admiration. Great playing, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JapanAxe Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Great playing on the vid too. I have that Jamerson book, and if I ever start to feel complacent about my playing, those lines soon put me right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin_lindsay Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 That's an amazingky detailed breakdown you've done mate, fantastic stuff, I've akways loved thst line. In fact, I had the privilege of playing it on an advert session for Burger King in Australia of all things while I was living there around 2000/2001 (I know, I know, but hry, it pays the bills! Hahaha). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4 Strings Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 +1 to all these comments. Spent a long time learning and soaking in a number of Jamerson tracks for our Motown act, I sincerely love his playing and appreciate your own appreciation of him. Skilled piece of analysis and playing! (I've sent a link to my lad, just finished his musical degree this year, also a very capable bass player who appreciates JJ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

risingson Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Really nice analysis, got a kick out of 'For Once In My Life' below actually, one of the best-constructed bass parts to ever be committed to a pop record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Really interesting to read the analysis and great playing yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niceguyhomer Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Thanks for that Chris, brilliant. Hard to believe he played those basslines with one finger (The Hook). Like your playing and great tone, as a matter of interest what strings are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sblueplanet Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Now the real test would be to only use the one finger like the great man himself. Be interesting to see you turn your reading skills to analysing some other bassists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
