Customer Reviews

Unbeatable party cd
This cd was my initiation into the world of funk, and just as crucial, the magic of the JB's. This cd is ALMOST perfect. Why almost? Not because there's anything bad on it. Quite the contrary, every song kicks and leaves you wanting more. I don't know anyone who can't dig on this stuff. It's "almost" perfect b/c it's too funking short. It's only about 50 minutes long, and the JB's made hours of classic funk. Get this first, then kick yourself later for not getting the 2-cd set instead. There is one exception: Blow Your Head is on this one, but not any of the others, which makes no sense given how sweet it is. If you're not familiar with the JB's, then you are in for such a treat.

True Greatness
This CD gets better and better each time you listen.
No programming required...every track a classic.
There are scattered vocals, so I wouldn't consider it
a purely instrumental CD, but the vocals that
ARE there are wildly entertaining.

...whuwee, this some funky stuff...
...an arsenal of funk! this is music to both START and END your party to! why? BECAUSE IT'S JAMES BROWN AND HIS BOYS AND THEY JUS BE DOIN IT TO DEATH! this is music to check your pulse to.
