JAMES BROWN - ESSENTIAL ORIGINAL ALBUMS [CD]

DELUXE 3-CD DIGIPACK BOX SET WITH 10 PANELSWith some 800 songs in his repertoire James Brown influenced countless contemporary artists from virtually every popular music genre –rock, funk, soul, jazz, R&B, hi hop and rap. His polyrhythmic funk vamps reshaped dance music, and Brown was by far the most sampled artist during the early days of hip hop. Though he would be dogged by legal troubles and controversy in later life, he was a principled artist, adamantly refusing to conform to anyone’s vision. This 3-CD set presents five of his best albums, along with 8 bonus tracks from the same period.JAMES BROWN, lead vocalsOn all tracks, plus:The Famous Flames featuring BOBBY BYRD.Recorded in Los Angeles and Cincinnati between 1956 and 1962.CD 1 [1-16]: PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE (King 610)CD 1 [17-28]: THINK! (King 683)CD 2 [1-12]: TOUR THE U.S.A. (King 804)CD 2 [13-23]: NIGHT TRAIN (King 771)CD 3 [1-11]: THE AMAZING JAMES BROWN (King 743)* BONUS TRACKS (CD3: 12-28)CD 1: TOTAL TIME: 71:24 Min.01 Please, Please, Please02 Chonnie-On-Chon03 Hold My Baby’s Hand04 I Feel That Old Feeling Coming On05 Just Won’t Do Right06 Baby Cries Over the Ocean07 I Don’t Know08 Tell Me What I Did Wrong09 Try Me10 That Dood It11 Begging, Begging12 I Walked Alone13 No, No, No, No14 That’s When I Lost My Heart15 Let’s Make It16 Love or a Game17 Think18 Good Good Lovin’19 Wonder When You’re Coming Home20 I’ll Go Crazy21 This Old Heart22 I Know It’s True23 Bewildered24 I’ll Never Never Let You Go25 You’ve Got the Power26 If You Want Me27 Baby, You’re Right28 So LongCD 2: TOTAL TIME: 61:32 Min.01 Mashed Potatoes U.S.A.02 Choo-Choo Locomotion03 Three Hearts in a Tangle04 Doin’ the Limbo05 I Don’t Care06 Joggin’ Along07 I’ve Got Money08 Sticky09 Like a Baby10 Every Beat of My Heart11 In the Wee Wee Hours12 Cross Firing13 Hold It14 The Scratch15 Night Train16 The Wobble17 Night Flying18 Just a Little Bit of Everything19 Doin’ Everything20 Suds21 Tonk Game22 Switch-a-Roo23 Bushy TailCD 3: TOTAL TIME: 72:12 Min.01 Just You and Me, Darling02 I Love You, Yes I Do03 I Don’t Mind04 Come Over Here05 The Bells06 Love, Don’t Love Nobody07 Dancin’ Little Thing08 Lost Someone09 And I Do Just What I Want10 You Don’t Have to Go11 Tell Me What You’re Gonna Do12 Shout and Shimmy*13 Have Mercy Baby*14 It Was You*15 There Must Be a Reason*16 Fine Old Foxy Self*17 I’ve Got to Change*18 Gonna Try*19 I Want You So Bad*20 It Hurts to Tell You*21 I Won’t Plead No More*22 Don’t Let It Happen to Me*23 Can’t Be the Same*24 Messin’ with the Blues*25 You’re Mine, You’re Mine*26 Strange Things Happen*27 Why Do You Do Me*28 Hot Chilli*
