Comment:

For James Brown, Star Time kicked off in the early ’50s, back when his Famous Flames lit the fuse that rocketed the sanctified screamer, magnificent process and all, onto the charts (“Please, Please, Please,” “Try Me”). By the time “Out of Sight” cracked our consciousness, Papa had us locked in a brutally funky groove, the give-and-take of percussion, horns, and vocals a thing of Swiss-precise timing. The singles that followed — “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag,” “I Got You (Feel Good)” — not only defined the golden age of ’60s soul; they were the wet cement upon which the mighty tower of funk would be built. And they’re all the more reason why James’ supernatural presence will be so dearly, dearly missed.
