    The Godfather!!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 9, 2001

    This is it! This is the LP one must buy if you want to understand just what JB has meant to contemporary music as we know it today. This has never been more evident with the advent of rap music as a new and provacative art form. Because, plain and si...mple,there would be no such thing as rap, without James Brown. Almost exclusively, the dawn of rap music started with some kid wondering what his words would sound like under a James Brown riff.This is how it all began. It is because of this,and his undeniable influences on an entirely new generation of musicians, that he will always and forever be considerd the Godfather of Soul!!! This is JB's world.......RP Read more Less

  • All Music Guide

    While Brown's 30-track Solid Gold collection would be the first-pick introductory disc if it made it to CD, this fine hits package certainly won't disappoint Brown neophytes looking for a way in. Covering his prime stretch from the late '50s through the early '70s, 20 All-Time Greatest Hits includes early RB milestones ("Please, Please, Please"), epochal '60s sides ("Papa's Got a Brand New Bag, Pt. 1"), and latter-day funk classics ("Papa Don't Take No Mess, Pt. 1"). And that's not to mention such perennials as "Mother Popcorn," "Hot Pants," "Cold Sweat," and "Think." Start your Brown obsession here.

Biography

James Brown/The JB's

"Soul Brother Number One," "the Godfather of Soul," "the Hardest Working Man in Show Business," "Mr. Dynamite" those are mighty titles, but no one can question that James Brown has earned them more than any other performer. Other singers were more popular, others were equally skilled, but few other AfricanAmerican musicians have been so influential on the course of pop... Read more
