Greg Reeves
Greg Reeves is an American bass guitarist. He is best known for playing bass on Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's ''Déjà Vu'' (1970).
==Biography and career==
Little is known about Reeves' early life. Even his birthdate is contested; although he may have graduated from Warren Western Reserve High School in Warren, Ohio in 1968, drummer Dallas Taylor recalled that Reeves had a fake driver's license (procured by Rick James) showing his age to be 19 and was rumored to be as young as 15 in 1969.〔()〕 Reeves has partially corroborated Taylor's account, noting that he was "very young" during his tenure with CSNY.
It has been reported that Reeves was employed as a session bass player with Motown Records when he was 12; while he was scouted at this preternatural age by Motown and Chess Records, his mother "would not hear of it."〔''The Robesonian'' article: "(Songster Rick James Cracks The Pop Market )."〕〔 Despite having been credited with playing bass on The Temptations' "Cloud Nine", Reeves claimed in a 2012 interview that he was apprehensive during the recording session and switched to tambourine at the behest of producer Norman Whitfield, his recruiter and main benefactor at Motown.〔''Crosby, Stills & Nash: The Authorized Biography''. Zimmer & Diltz, pp. 94.〕〔 During this period, he was also mentored by other Motown luminaries, including the aforementioned James (who concurrently played alongside Reeves in Salt 'N' Pepa, a Los Angeles rock group formed from the remnants of Merryweather) and James Jamerson. He has since contended that his most notable performance for the company was the bass part (overdubbed in Los Angeles) of "No Matter What Sign You Are," the final song recorded by Diana Ross with The Supremes.〔
