Soul on Top isn’t one of James’ better known albums, but it is one of his best.
That’s My Desire
I shook James Brown’s hand! It was at a fundraiser not too long after he got out of prison and he was clearly checked out and doing it for the appearance check. But it was James Brown. I remember his hand was very soft.
Bootsy Collins played for him briefly, and Collins later was part of Groove Is In The Heart
Didn’t he fire Bootsy for doing acid? Also, I love this song so much.
I have a really cool James Brown tribute album with this amazing cover on it…
and for my twofer this cool cover is also on it…
Let’s get some women in the hot tub.
Betty Davis – They Say I’m Different
Parlet – Cookie Jar
I’ve seen James Brown perform live more than just about any other musical artist. When he used to come through the Chicago Theater for 3 nights, I would buy tickets to every single show. James’ Federal recordings are my favorites of all his catalog though. 1956-1960.
today just sucked all the joy out of me
