There is no doubt that James Brown has talent. ten years ago, James Brown briefly lived up to their terrific name, with an insanely addictive hit single called “Super Good (Parts 1& 2) - Myra Barnes (Vicki Anderson)”. Self-described as Jazz: Funk with lots of words, James Brown comes out swinging on perhaps his best album to date. Smart music for smart people.
Super Good (Parts 1& 2) - Myra Barnes (Vicki Anderson) - This happy song is an ode to optimism and an anthem. I’m Paying Taxes, What Am I Buying - Fred Wesley & The JB’s is a gorgeous song and it grows on you. Once you hear Do Your Thing - Lyn Collins, you will listen to it over and over. Hot Pants…I’m Coming, Coming, I’m Coming - Bobby Bird is a song that definitely grows on you and becomes an album favorite. The Message From The Soul Sisters (Parts 1& 2) - Myra Barnes (Vicki Anderson) is a very good song maybe surprisingly better than you at first might’ve imagined. Still going through James Brown’s Funky People Vol.2 and coming to appreciate Cross The Track (We Better Go Back) - Maceo & The Macks more and more with every listen. When listening to You Can Have Watergate But Gimme Some Bucks And I’ll Be Straight (Parts 1&2) - Fred Wesley & The JB’s, it gives me such an energy rush it’s unbelievable. In this song fans will recognize the unique vocals of James Brown. James Brown breathes new life into the music in Soul Power ‘74 - Maceo & The Macks. When I listen to What Do I Have To Do To Prove My Love To You - Marva Whitney in my car when traffic ain’t going so good. This song is like perfectly aged vintage bordeaux wine not a tequila shot. I Know You Got Soul - Bobby Byrd is gorgeous and different song.
