Chanson

Anyone remember this guy? not THE James Jamerson, but his son? He did a lot of session work in the 70's abd 80's, and had a disco Group called Chanson (referenced in the link I provided).

Anyone hip?
Woodchuck?
Dwalmz?

Chanson is what I remember most clearly. I know he also played "What's Going On" for that Jamerson instructional book that Dr. Licks put out a few years ago. I also seem to remember him playing at least a few tracks for the Crusaders.

Chanson recorded a song called "don't hold back, if it feels good doit" in the mid 70's, And yes I have that album!

I got to see James Jamerson Jr with the Crusaders around 84 or 85,I believe it was 85. Good solid player.
