    Who Played Bass in Tammi's "I Can't Believe You Love Me"?

    Very curious about this Tammi Terrell track because the bass on this track is really funky! Especially the parts where it's just Tammi and the bass! So great.

    That’s easy! Mr. James Jamerson played bass on this as well as almost all of Tammi’s other Motown recordings.

    Love that track as a solo track and as a duet.

    I've been playing this the last few days and even after some 20+ years, that part gives me chills. Just Tammi, a couple guitar licks and James's bass. I keep wondering how they came up with that; those off-time pauses. And is that a certain time signature they're playing in on that part? Amazing song. My favorite Tammi record!

    Yes! So this song is kind of a NO-NO for me when I'm driving. Makes me totally ignore the speed limit! [[But it's worth getting a ticket for Tammi!)

    thats the first Motown 45 I bought by Tammi, I had heard on the radio and the dj said she was Tammy Montgomery formerly with James Brown & that sent me to the record shop.
