• This quintessential collector’s edition includes James Brown & The Famous Flames’ seminal albums for the King label; consisting of their debut LP ‘Please, Please, Please’ (1959) and their third album ‘Think!’ (1960). These two masterpieces helped define the primal nature of soul. Three bonus tracks are included, consisting of hard to find sides from the same period.
• This CD provides a solid introduction into this man's own passionate style, intense delivery and R&B innovation. The foot-tapping rhythms, spine-tingling stylings and sentimental mood renderings so typical of his early performances can all be heard here.
• Personnel : James Brown, lead vocals, plus: Bobby Byrd, Bea Ford (vocals), Kenny Burrell, Eddie Freeman (guitar), Carl Pruitt, Bernard Odum, (bass), Louis Madison, Ernie Hayes, Alvin “Fats” Gonder (piano), Panama Francis, Reginald Hall (drums), Ray Felder, Cleveland Lowe (tenor sax), George Dorsey, John B. Brown (alto sax), Bill Hollings, J.W. Archer, Johnny Terry (backing vocals), & others - Recorded in New York City, Los Angeles & Cincinnati, 1956 -1959.
• Total Time: 78:32 mins. - 31 tracks - also includes16-page booklet with rare photos, vintage visual memorabilia, and detailed liner notes.
• Through the gospel-impassioned fury of his vocals and the complex polyrhythms of his beats, James Brown became the single most important figure in the transformation of Rhythm & Blues into Soul music, and one of the most influential African-American artist in the history of popular music. |
