discreet Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Great, thanks for posting. He was a very underrated bass player in my opinion. An inspiration to McCartney y'know, along with Jamerson. Wilson used session players later in the BBs career, notably Carol Kaye on Good Vibrations. I think so anyway. I may have dreamt it and can't be bothered to Google it.

spectoremg Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_%26_Mercy_(film) This was Mark Kermode's video of the week on this week's review. And it was Carole Kaye on some of the later Beach Boys tracks - IIRC Good Vibrations had three bass tracks layered on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just seen a clip of the Beach Boys doing Good Vibrations. There are 2 bass players you see one an upright player, with a possible third. The main 2 definitely aren't Carol kaye. While Carol Never dressed girly, the third doesn't really look like her either. You only get a view from side slightly behind. It's a clip posted directly to Facebook, so I can't work out how to post a link to it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivansc Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I think Carol Kaye can say pretty much anything he likes, now both Babbit AND Jamerson are gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natjag Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I wish there was someone that know Stevie Wonder or Berry Gordy to ask about a few of her claims. She has still done a great deal though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrunoBass Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 I read that she's claiming to have played some of the Motown baselines that everyone previously assumed were, or were credited to, Jameson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leftybassman392 Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) Didn't somebody play tenor guitar on some of their stuff? Just a vague recollection... Edit to add: not Tenor guitar - it's a baritone guitar I'm thinking of. Sorry. My bad... Anyway; same question but with 'Baritone' instead of 'Tenor' Edited March 25, 2016 by leftybassman392 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staggering on Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) In the Wrecking Crew video I think they claimed Carol on a Fender and two other bassists all played the same licks on the recording of Good Vibrations.IIRC there was a double bass and I believe a Danelecto.I can't check those details right now because I lent the DVD to a friend and he still has it.Anyone else remember that or have access to the DVD to check it out?

natjag Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 [quote name='PaulGibsonBass' timestamp='1458940335' post='3012354'] I read that she's claiming to have played some of the Motown baselines that everyone previously assumed were, or were credited to, Jameson. [/quote] yes, she does claim to play on some motown tracks. I think I may start a separate thread to discuss this. I'm sure it's been discussed here somewhere, but a search doesn't show an obvious thread. I think it's possible and probably she did play on many tracks. Because of the Jameson book we assume it is him on the tracks mentioned. I'm open to the suggestion that it's not fully researched. There are still many questionable tracks and claims of hers. I always thought it was her on The Beach Boys track here until I saw the clip. There are enough comments under mine which suggest she was on the clip and either out of shot, or the musicians were there miming for the cameras.
