While were at it lets find James Jameson's stolen bass the Funk Machine!





The sound the studio preservers
These two Gladys Knight and the Pips songs showcase Moetown's two best and only bass players with a pile of hits under their respective belts, Midnight train is Bob Babbit and Grapevine is James Jamison. The two best bass players ever.
