Description : My salute to James Jamerson, one of the most influential bass players in modern music, he played unaccredited on dozens and dozens of Motown number one hits and as a kid I loved that music and still do. The secret to JJ's tone is quite simple, a Fender Precision bass, flatwound strings and a foam mute.....and last but not least learning how to play with feel.

The most underrated bassist of all time. There should be monuments erected everywhere in James Jamerson's honor. Berry Gordy work the hell out of that guy. Jamerson had to be playing tired in some situations especially when Motown went on tour. Spectacular job Dave with your very soulful Bass. I bill myself here as the number 1 soul brother, but I may be in error, because you may very well be the number 1 soul brother here. Spectacular salute with your funky-soul bass playing. Joe
Classic enjoyed.
Howdy Dave !
Long time to see (or hear for that matter). I was travelling through tracks and found this beauty. Playing live I have had the opportunity to play a lot more jazz and fusion and this reminds me of some of those moments of genius that happen spontaneously. I really chilled out on this one while printing at work. How is the luthier work going? Cheers buddy!
Seriously cool tune you've created here! The mix stood out right away as being an excellent example of knowing what you want and making it happen. Smooth and chill, but upbeat and full of dynamics!
I have very little experience on knowledge when it comes to motown or soul sort of music, but I can tell that this is a great nod to the style with your own added flair. Your bass playing, of course, fits right in with the style! Nice tone! A foam mute you say? Interesting.
One of the synthesizer arpeggiations there at the buginning totally reminded me of something I might design in a virtual synth. That's some sparkly stuff right there!
Well, I've got to go wash some dishes now. I'm glad I caught this tune, it's super fine! Fave!
I dig the oldschool-newschool mix you got going!
Hi,
I like the sound, vibe and chill.
I am working on my art webpage and would like to use your music on my clips. Of course at every clip your name will be included.
Are you interested?
Thanks
This is very cool stuff Dave.
Nice groove dynamics and kind off chilly bass. Very well played and mixed.
The solo part is a bit funny kind of soul music :) and like someone said before - the brass is a little strange but in a way also very cool (cause it is just like something that says hey i am a vst but have all the rights to be in a modern soul like song) :) The trumpet is excellent, same the sax. Really nice work and very good to relax and enjoy.
great track!
stay tuned
joe
Seriously superb. This is a mix I can study to learn how to mix. The bass is fantastic and the horns and sax are perfect. I love everything about this - except one thing: It ends too soon!
holy cow that beat came outta nowhere
bassy shit man
like the low freq snare aswell
PEACE

Very chill and soulful! Nice work man.
Great track Planetjazzbass! It has such an awesome vibe to it. The bass was my favorite part. I really enjoyed the ride you took me on. This one's a Fav and its downloaded. Truly nice work.
Nice, I like it. Cool to here again REAL MUSIC played by real MUSICIANS! Cheers and beats. Laurent
Yo.
Nice jam(erson) you have going here.
Totally illegal sample to kick things off but I let you off. And then it's not motown at all. Is it?
Steady little, gentle, subdued groove with some predictably fuky bass and lead stabby keys. And even a bit of cowbell.
0:36 that's really not a Motown vibe. No glitchy, twinkly stuff in that sort of music. There's no I Heard It Through The Glitchline. But it's cool twinkly stuff.
1:44 surprise brass stab that seems a bit disconnected from everything else. Too dry, too close.
1:50 that's some weird sax. Kind of cool, squawking away like that. Brass stab probably now doesn't need to be there.
Then a tasteful key change and some muted trumpet that seems to belong more in the mix than the other brass. Good stuff. Played by you from the keyboard?
3:34 some wicked trumpet runs there! Very soulful stuff.
And a disappointing fadeout end before we head back to the naughty sample.
Overall: a cool vibe but I think some improvements can be made.
