James Jamerson was the uncredited bassist on more number-one hit records than The Beatles, Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones, and The Beach Boys combined. He was the backbone of the "Motown Sound," playing on tracks like "What's Going On" by Marvin Gaye, "Bernadette" by The Four Tops, and "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" by Gladys Knight.

His bass lines weren't just background noise; they were a duet with the singer. Legend has it that for Marvin Gaye's "What’s Going On," Jamerson was so intoxicated he had to record that iconic, fluid bass line while on the studio floor.
