    Glad he is getting his deserved recognition these days. I wish he could have talked a little more about Tommy Cogbill. Cogbill hands down is the most underappreciated bassist of all time. Not much info or even conversation about his unbelieveable producing and basslines in music history. The Memphis Boys book is about all there is out ther about Tommy. For me Cogbill and Jamerson tie for being the godfathers of electric bass

    Jerry's music has made me feel so good since I was a very young man. I could NOT believe listening to King Curtis's massive hit "Memphis Soul Stew" as a hit record on Minneapolis radio in White suburbia. There was this term "fatback" I just had to learn more about. It was so joyous! Before that as a younger man in upper Michigan I was flipped out by Jamerson and MoTown! My God, one can barely imagine the LOVE coming out of the radios and hi-fi records! 45 RPM heaven! There was everything! I've had a few conversations with Jerry. I wanted to record our talks and post them to YT but I didn't have the software. I sent him some of my bass work. He wrote this to me as a reference and out of honest assessment, "There are not many people who can embrace a style of music and make it completely their own, Bob Marcus happens to be one of them, without the ego that seems to get in the way of many of them. Man can he throw down!" -- Jerry Jemmott, two-time Grammy Award Winner. The one thing I took from Jerry as a musician is this -- make it make. This name "Bill Karmetsky" stems from an inside joke with my ex. Haha!

    One of the quintessential studio bassmen who went unnamed for years. His basslines did for Atlantic what Duck and Jamerson did for Stax and Motown respectively. Hard to imagine that the instrument that went on to define the sound of the recorded popular music genres we grew up with, was pretty much in its infancy not so long ago. 🎸

    Great interview! Besides stating the obvious as far as the caliber of musician that Jerry is, I have always admired him as having a very good head on his shoulders. You don’t survive in this industry as long as he has unless you have a solid business sense and how to handle various situations and egos. Yes he is amazing to listen to and very inspiring but he is very well put together and never lost him self in the limelight.

    Around '87, a friend of mine said he had got a video of Jaco demonstrating his playing etc. The next time I saw him, he said Jaco had passed away. I was dumbstruck.
    When I got the video myself, I sat entranced by this towering figure being interviewed by Jerry. At least we got to see and hear him in that clear and uncluttered setting, where we could fully and finally as it turned out, appreciate just how magnificent he was.
    Other great bassists impress me a lot. Jaco goes way beyond that. I can't explain it very well.
    He was a true phenomenon.

    Right before Jaco appeared, on bass Stanley Clarke was all the rage, Lopsy-Lu and the RTF stuff. But, to be honest, it became Stanley Who? once you heard Jaco, it was over.And Stanley is great. But Jaco is like a Mozart, the type of genius that only comes around once every generation or two. Amazing thing is, Allan Holdsworth appeared around the same time. So the 70's gave us two geniuses for all time back to back. In terms of music, the 70's were an incredibly fertile time, which is why so many younger musicians are exploring the music of that time now. Gives me some comfort in what is a very fucked up world now.

      Actually Jerry is older! Jerry said that Jaco was influenced by his funky R&B playing and awesome style. Jaco also said he heard things with harmonics that Jerry had not yet even imagined. If Jerry was jealous of Jaco, he wouldn’t have done a DVD for millions to see! He loved and was very impressed with Jaco, which is why he wanted to do it. 😊

      @OddsAndEndsStayBright  2 роки тому

      Yes! That’s true, Clyde and Odds and Ends know that Wayne Shorter was also a founding member as well as Miroslav Vitouš. Clyde was also very close with Victor Bailey, who famously replaced Jaco in 1982.
      I know most of the public see Joe Zawinul as the lead member, leading to us saying that in the episode. I’m sure you know the relevant info already, but for those who want to learn more, check out the book “No Beethoven” by Peter Erskine! It’s really a great read! 😊 We hope you enjoyed the episode!

      @@OddsAndEndsStayBright All one has to do is listen to Wayne Shorter's plethora of next level compositions as a leader, his stints with Blakey and more importantly, with Miles. If these people actually listen to what he plays and has been playing, they'd gain a little more realistic perspective in measuring who's was who in the Weather Report and the jazz pecking order.
