out of sight
Advantages: some all time classics Disadvantages: a few dud tracks, no live songs
out of sight is a greatest hits collection from the godfather of soul, James Brown. it contains all of the classics that you would expect including 'sex machine', i feel good', 'papas got a brand new bag', 'its a mans mans mans world' and 'get up offa that thing'.
there are 18 tracks here in total making this album good value for money. some of the songs dont quite live up to the same high standards as the songs mentioned before, but the song retains ... ...that there are no examples of Brown's legendary live performances here. Browns band is generally very tight. the inlay includes a fairly detailed biography and some good photos of brown in his younger years.
overall this is a good album with some genuinely great tracks, there are a few weak links but it doesnt detract from the overall quality of the music. ...

Review of Out Of Sight (The Very Best Of James Brown) - James Brown

THE GODFATHER OF SOUL
Advantages: Contains his most well-known classics Disadvantages: None!
Like Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Marvin Gaye, Diana Ross and Stevie Wonder, James Brown possessed the uncanny ability of having a distinguished, instantly recognisable and unique vocal style of his own. In his case, his primal vocal delivery was capable of such immense and impressive volume and power that was purely adrenalin-driven. Visually, James Brown was a larger-than-life figure from his wildly over-the-top slicked hairdo to his acrobatic, athletic-like ... ...effortlessly conveyed such raw and passionate energy both on stage and on record. He quickly became one of the giants and most important names in black music history. He has apparently disputed his birth on a number of occasions for some unknown reason though it is most commonly believed to be somewhere in Georgia, USA. James was certainly no stranger to poverty and had a struggling upbringing and whilst still at school, he worked constantly as a ...

James Brown - The Godfather
Advantages: Pure James Brown Disadvantages: only 1 disc
This is a CD containing 20 of James Brown's best hits. It has songs ranging from Get Up Offa That Thing to Papa's Got A Brand New Bag, from It's a Man's Man's Man's World to Living In America. The complete track listing is below.
Before i bought this CD i'd only heard of Papa's Got A Brand New Bag (bad for a DJ i know) by James Brown's but ever since i bought it i can't get enough of him. It has to be the Funk mix with the soul that does it for ... ...up from some supermarket for a pittence of what it should have been. Only £3.50 ish i think. Is well worth the £10 a high street shop would charge. I believe it is now possible to get pretty cheap copies of the net.
If you love anything James has done you'll love this CD. Highly Recommended. The track list is as follows:
Papa's Got a Brand New Bag
I Got You (I Feel Good)
It's A Man's Man's Man's World
Please Please Please
Think
Night Train

The Whut???
Advantages: Bangers throughout Disadvantages: Nothing specific
Guided by Erick Sermon, who he would soon come to form part of Def Squad with (along with Keith Murray) it finds him performing the similar things to what EPMD (of which Erick Sermon is half) were known for with the ‘Funk Rap’, material coming out the East Coast and laced-heavily with P-Funk samples from the seventies and eighties. 1. “Psycho Ward” (Intro) 2. “Time 4 Sum Aksion” The album gets going with something hardcore as we get one of the singles ... ...we get a jam which uses a huge array of various samples from a little from Zapp, Sly & The Family Stone and LL Cool J to help him along the way as he gets the thing underway with a track that’s all there for the hype and has him showing just how much potential he has within him. **Five Stars** 3. “Da Funk” (Lude) 4. “News Break” (Lude) 5. “So Ruff” We have things taken to rather predictable places here, but really you are completely unable to complain ...

WATCH OUT!!! THIS HARDMAN WILL GRAB YOU BY THE.......
Advantages: Excellent feel good factor Disadvantages: Too good and you won't be able to stop dancing....again.....and again........and again
In a music industry that is forever being labelled and categorised here is the opportunity to own, listen, live and dance with an Album that is surely its own little creature, always ready to fill your soul when you give it attention it craves.
'Attack of The Hundred Yard Hardman' is a brilliant album by Parka, to some, a little known scottish band that have been on the circuit for a while now but when you find them and join their world on this ... ...With many albums these days its usual to find those couple of tracks that just aren't up to the same level as the others but with this one all of the tracks are there to please. Yes there may be a couple that don't take your fancy but they are still good and knocking at your door for you to listen to them.
The tracks on the album are comprised of some fantastic lively arrangements and mix of musical presence leaving you in no doubt that Parka must ...
