motown's bassist (unfortunately dead and, thus, unmeetable... unless we started, like, a zombie temptations. zotown.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Jamerson

"He is reported to have played on some 95% of Motown recordings between 1962 and 1968. He eventually performed on nearly 30 No. 1 pop hits -- surpassing the record commonly attributed to The Beatles. On the R&B charts, nearly 70 of his performances went to the top."

one of the other omnipresent session bassists of the era is carol kaye.
