Heard_It_Through_the_Grapevine-VersionII.doc Gladys Knight and the Pips From: jaco_p@earthlink.net This was tentatively part of the song list for a three-week running show I performed in late March of 2003. Sitting down and working it the best I could; this is the transcription that seemed to sound correct to me. At any rate, here?s the Gladys Knight and Pip?s version of ?Heard It Through the Grapevine?? another fine example of the late James Jamerson?s wicked bass lines. Hope you enjoy, Michael s.
