Free Music Notes for James Brown - 20 All-Time Greatest Hits!
Free Music Review: Got To Be Funky
Hit: 5 Stars
This CD does what a 1-CD "Best Of" compilation must, it squeezes as many "must-have" tracks onto one disk as possible. Ending with Please, Please, Please was a master-stroke. If you love the funk, it's great to have so many winners by The Godfather in one place. If you don't, you will after you work through this compilation a few times and let it flow up from your feet into your hips. James Brown wrote the book, he is a true original. (Please don't blame the audio plague known as "rap" on him.)
Brown has recorded a lot, and there are many mediocre compilations floating around. This is easily the best, with the most select play list. Use it as your starting position. After that you might want to check out Live At The Apollo, or drop in on The J.B.'s. It does get addictive. When it comes to James Brown, "If it's all night it's all right".

Just make 'em groove. With this album you will certainly be doing that. This thing smokes through all twenty songs.You know that smile you get on your face when "I Got You" or "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag" are playing? Well they're both here, and they're not even the best songs on the album! (they're close though).
"Get Up (Sex Machine)", "I Got The Feelin'", "Night Train", "Cold Sweat", "Papa Don't Take No Mess" are all fantastic. And then there's the almost eight minute long "The Payback", with the unmistakable bassline. Wow. James is at the top of his form on these classic cuts.
Don't hesitate, buy this. Your head will be bobbing and your feet will be tapping. And that smile? It'll be there. Enjoy.

JAMES BROWN has got to be my all-time favorite artist. He's got all the soul you'd ever need, he writes good songs, and I saw him live and thought, "Holy Stuff!"
If you like JAMES BROWN, this is a must-have record. It's packed with SOUL CLASSICS like "I Feel Good", "Lovin' Machine", "Make it Funky", "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag", "Cold Sweat", "Superbad", "I'm Black and I'm Proud", "Try Me", "Please Please Please", "Get Up Offa That Thing", "Hot Pants", and every other song here.
One complaint, though; "the Payback" should've been tossed for "Soul Power". Still, you need this, paired with Marvin Gaye's Greatest Hits (the two-disc package) and the Temptations Millenium Collection.
Free Music Review: Any fan of any genre of popular music must own this
Hit: 5 Stars
This is essential music for anybody that is a fan of soul, rock, funk, dance, disco, electronic, hip hop or top 40 pop. James Brown was so incredibly daring, innovative and original. His influence can be sensed in all genres of music and performance.
There are many facets of "James Brown"... as a the live act, his lenthy and demanding instrumentals, the incredible array of dynamic and virtuostic musicians that he assembled, the dancing and the visual.
This work represents his most accessible pop songs. These are the fun songs, the most well known tunes that have been part of the aural soundscape since the 1960's.
Shame on any music fan for not having immediate access to these 20 killer songs!
