James Brown & Famous Flames - Please, Please, Please (Original)
Loading...
Uploaded by Nocaro on Nov 6, 2010
"Please, Please, Please" was written by James Brown and Johnny Terry, and Brown's recording of it backed by the Famous Flames launched the music career of one of the great all-time R&B performers. Although this 1956 song did well on the R&B charts, it failed to make the pop Top 40 in a day and age in which what was then termed as "race music" was seldom played on the major commercial airwaves.

@triggerthemoment You can put the Famous Flames in the Doo Wop category, but you can only put James Brown in the Godfather Of Soul category-- and there ain't no one else in there.

James Brown's anthem !♪
Just one comment/question:
Please please is my favourite song from James Brown and have been researching about this rec/session for years. In this original take I only hear: Piano- Bass (Upright?) - & Drums (No guitar & horns)... I got some info that it was James -The Flames & Kings House-band. If you can kindly give me further info on this track, I'll be very much thankful.
Thanks in advance.
Peace,
P. mac

@Virpatrick The only other info I could find on this song is that it was inspired by a comment made by Little Richard to James that involved the words, "please, please, please". James wrote the words down on a napkin and kept it thinking he could make a song out of these words that Little Richard had uttered. I cannot locate any other actual recording info.
