Stevie Wonder - I Was Made To Love Her! (1967)

Annettesmusic Says:

Jul 1, 2011 - One of my all time favorites by Stevie too. Nice of you to give a shout out to Jamie Jamerson. Premier bass player for Motown and other places to. What blew me away was that I just found out that he played bass on "What's Going On," "What's Happening Brother," "Flyin' High," "Save the Children," "God Is Love," on the What's Going On album with Marvin Gaye. I LOVE the bass in those songs but never knew it was Jamie. Cool.

Jul 3, 2011 - I think his name was JAMES not JAMIE!

Annettesmusic Says:

Jul 4, 2011 - May be so but I feel like I know him, so I affectionately call him Jamie.

Jul 8, 2011 - Is it just me or is this the album version dubbed on top of video?

Jul 19, 2011 - It IS Jamerson. Allan Slutsky debunked Carol Kaye's delusional bullshit claims years ago

kyuss2922 Says:

Jul 20, 2011 - From the Jamerson website: "The performance credit that Carol has pursued with the greatest tenacity over the years is the bass part on Stevie Wonder's "I Was Made to Love Her". Hank Cosby who co-wrote, produced it, "was there every step of the way from the writing of the song to the day the 45's were shipped", vehemently denied any participation by Carol Kaye on this recording. Cosby also signed an affidavit similar to Brian Holland's attesting to Jamerson's performance. "

Jul 23, 2011 - Jamerson Trivia Guess who was the one who helped him get work in the 1970's? none other than my new BFF he also had nothing but nice things to say about her how do I know this because my my new BFF told me all this my new BFF you're are wondering is none other than Carol Kaye and for the record she's not delusional

kyuss2922 Says:

Jul 31, 2011 - Yeah "whatever",,,, Hank Crosby co-wrote and produced the song and is in the Songwriters Hall Of Fame. You........ are some dude on YouTube. I think I'll take Cosby's word for it. Thanks. 

kyuss2922 Says:

Aug 1, 2011 - Just a little confused, remind her that she played Jamerson's bass line on THE BEACH BOY'S cover of "I Was Made To Love Her".

kyuss2922 Says:

Aug 1, 2011 - Carol Kaye played on the Beach Boys version later that year. Jamerson played on Stevie Wonder's original version.

coolsweetgroovy Says:

Aug 2, 2011 - Has anyone ever thought that it could be Jamerson on drums(read that he played drums) and Carol Kaye on bass? just a thought

Uummadaani Says:

Sep 14, 2011 - I've always loved this song ever since I heard it for the first time! (: Everlasting

Jan 23, 2012 - Heard that when the legal stuff was being thrown about a couple of the funk brothers and others said they would swear affidavids in court that it was Jamerson on bass as they were present ..Kaye backed off

gjamieson78 Says:

Feb 1, 2012 - People still think that Carol Kaye played on this track?? Listen to the master tracks on the Standing In The Shadows of Motown CD.....there's no doubt you're hearing the Fender Precision Funk Machine.

Feb 10, 2012 - AWESOME VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!

Mar 9, 2012 - even if he was a one hit Wonder this genius performance/song alone would put him on the map. Just great artist who created a string of undying classic discs in the 60s/70s is just full odf love & grace (& didnt self destruct)
