James Jamerson Diskographie

James Jamerson hat auf Dutzenden von Songs und No1-Hits den Bass gespielt. Dass es aber so viele sind, ist wirklich erstaunlich. Vor allem in Anbetracht dessen, dass Jamerson zu seinen Lebzeiten für die meisten mehr oder weniger unbekannt war. Sogar John Entwistle meinte, er habe den Namen Jamerson nie gehört. Für ihn war er einfach „The guy who played bass for Motown“.

Die nachfolgende Liste stammt ursprünglich vom Benutzer Defuncted von der Talk Bass-Website. Er hat mit viel Aufwand die Diskographie von James Jamerson zusammengetragen. Hier also die (wahrscheinlich vollständigste) Liste von Jamerson's Songs und Alben.
