This was a big hit for Byrd. When he did this LIVE back on the JB Shows back then the crowds went crazy. One time in Orlando he jumped off the stage & the place went beserk cause the FUNK was jammin.

James Brown also did this tune on the "There It Is" LP.

[SeanElGatoTelevision]

...and recorded the original demo of "Mother Popcorn" (unreleased until the "Motherlode" compilation in 1988) over this very track.

JB often recycled instrumental tracks during his late perod King-early Polydor period (1967-75) for other releases (for instance, there is a Marva Whitney single that uses the same instrumental track).

[Nebraskablack]

Also check Hank Ballard's "Butter Your Popcorn Baby" he was also an occasional recipient of JB licks!!

@Nebraskablack Ballard was Huge, Before Brown, The 5 Royales, inspiring Brown!
