Please, Please, Please Sadly, the passing of James Brown, with all his flaws and all his greatness, marked a ‘black letter’ day in the realm of Funk music. While he was called the Godfather of soul, it was his Funk hits that got most of his airplay. This CD does an excellent job of presenting the singles of Brown, but omits many of his better songs that were not hits. For this reason, this cd is recommended to those who don’t have any James Brown cds, but want something to start with. Compilations come and go; are listened to and perhaps forgotten. Not this cd. This is one cd that will get played over and over again, so in that way it is a good purchase. This is one of about 25 cds that I regularly give as ‘gifts’ to people, and I’ve yet to hear a complaint! Released on Polydor, this is not a budget compilation that clogs the cd lists on EBAY: it is a high quality pop hits package. A good price for this CD used would be $4.99 or less; a new copy should be priced around the $7.99-$11 range.

I sent this cd back not because it was not worth it because it is. I had lost my cd and wanted to replace it, but I found. If you want a great cd by James Brown, get this one.
