This one has been incredibly hard for me to get the groove right. Please give me some tips from when you guys were learning it. Here's a recording of me playing it...

Sounds great to me. Couple of moments could use some smoothing out, but you're definitely there, good job!

You need to drink a pint of Tequila...smoke a joint...then lay out flat on your back before attempting this bassline. That's how Jamerson did it .

The notes are there. The timing on some them need a little more work. Good job though. I have a version but I don't want to hijack your thread.

That worked only in the beginning of his career

Very nice! I think it could be a hair "looser" but really really nice playing!
