AS far as Carol Kaye, she claimed that it is her bass playing you hear

Her claims are a crock of ****, according to those associated with
Motown at the time. She did play on stuff recorded at the Motown
LA studio, for the LA contingent of Motown
\artists,but she did not play on the Detroit stuff.

*She has no reason to willfully lie, you schmuck.
*She could be mistaken. Then again maybe not.
one does not require a reason, to lie.
not that she would not have any reasons.
Why do people lie? to impress other people,
to make themselves feel more important,
to gain advantage, or sometimes just because'
they like to put soemthing over on people.
I don't know her rationale, but it is pretty
clear she is not the bass player on all those Motown hits.
the other players and the producers of the stuff were pretty clear
about that.
