[wke34]

@strodogg130 One of mine too: Been listening to this since I was about six or seven. "Precha dau'ta."

[BeautelligentDiva79]

Man, this makes me regret selling my saxophone. But at the same time, it makes me want to get reacquainted with playing music again.

[jody808]

[BrianIsChill]

my mind blew up because the amount of funk

[vinnivegas52]

get with your "bad" self !

[MrBilbowl]

good god !

[patrick9648]

I used to have this 45. When I was a kid I thought it was a bunch of mess. But years later I think its pretty darn funky.

[wendileona]

One of the hardest truest Funk songs ever. Everything is in this one. Its interesting, that say in drumming, people think Funk drumming is all shuffling or all over the place like JB's other big hits. But the drummer is just steady snare nothing else. That almost trance-like playing, that concentration, that steadiness and unwavering dedication to the 1 and 2, 3, 4 over and over again... thats Funk. Pure True Funk if you will.

[DjDedan]

@wendileona now that's what i call a groove.

[sonyabolonya]

@DjDedan  very favorite James Brown piece

[sonyabolonya]

I was a Fort Gordon 1970

[Gil1976]

another f-ing classic from JB and his band

[Caffeetasse]

i´m sad - then i hear this song - i´m happy - then 2:05 - and i´m the fucking god of the world :D

[ZAMPAROAD]

GOOD GOD!!!

[horusbey]

[njmusiclady64]

I must say that James Brown knew how to lay down some of the funkiest songs back in the day!!!!! You couldn't sit down on any of them; you had to get up and dance. His musical legacy will live on for many generations to come. R.I.P. James!!!!!!!!!

[korgpadude]

[jody808]

[sarahjeanluvsmusik]

[piccinini02]

[roughryderrr]

To answer your question, James Brown - Yes, it's pretty damn funky.

[patrick9648]

I used to have this on 45 RPM vinyl. Still trippy groovy after all these years. Nobody could lay down some nasty funk like the Godfather.

[1nine79]

Ain't it funky now........

[flyer6851]

Good God, now!

[KJAnsia]

Dig those pops and hisses.

Preacher's daughter!

[Buckeyecat2002]

Yea, this is raw JB funky stuff and so is "Excapism, " as well as "Fred and the New JB's" "Funky Misic is My Style."

[bgrant82]

One of my favorite JB jams. This 45 version is right in the groove too--they didn't cut it too fast... Best shouts: "Preacher's daughter." And: "HEY. ... HEY YOU. COM'ERE." lol Thanks for posting it!

[flyer6851]

Don't forget "Filthy Mac Nasty".

[bkafele]

One of the best jams the Godfather ever recorded. RIP Godfather - 12/25/09 (2 years later)

[RussellAthletics]

I heard this song on the radio the other day and I never heard it before but I like it.
