I agree, but you have to look at the advancement of music in the years James played versus when Jaco played. Musicianship had grown tremendously from the 60's to the 70's when Jaco played. Also I believe playing with weather report challenged Jaco to find new ways to express himself which lead to a more innovative approach. Believe me I know Jaco was phenomenal, but Jamerson changed the whole approach to the bass. He was just the pioneer of it all. Much respect to you my fellow music critic.

the bassplayers just love this performance dont they :D makes me wanna bow down and worship mr jamerson

wonderful!

It's amazing what cocaine did to ya Oh Great One..we will never hear anything like this ever again.We miss you Marvin

Fantástico!Adorei!!!!!!!!!Perfeito,como tudo que Marvin Gaye fez e,deixou!

I hear alotta Jamerson in Jaco's style of playing. How could anyone not hear it? But this is really about Marvin. Also' nice little piano solo.

You're right. Marvin was a tremendous talent (high or sober). No pun intended, just tellin it like it is. May he rest in peace with Our Eternal Father.

Marvin didn't die from drugs, he died beacause his dad shot him because of a dispute they had with eachother.

love the african drumming in the background. This has to be the best version of the song I have ever heard. Thanks for posting.

And the background video you have is just incredible.
