- Botafogo - 10-08-2004 James Brown Soul on Top (Verve B0001978-02) The jazziest session Soul Brother #1 ever recorded, this disc features James (with Maceo on sax of course) with the Louie Bellson Orchestra (featuring Ray Brown on Bass and Ernie Watts on Alto among others) putting a whole different spin on classics like Your Cheating Heart (re-invented as a horn driven boogaloo, Hank would have loved it!), For Once in My Life and Everyday I Have the Blues as well as It is a Mans Mans Mans World and Papas got a Brand New Bag with new, modernist arrangements by the legendary Oliver Nelson. Originally recorded in November 1969, this is a classic and we have to give big props to Verve / Universal for un-earthing it again. |
