Music reviews of Singles 6: 1969-1970

Music Review: Progressive JB on 45rpm
Rating: 5 Stars

The subtitle of this CD set, on the jacket reverse side, says "The Swingin' James Brown" and at first the longtime fan/student/historian is taken aback - "swingin'"? - what about the "funk". Well, the truth is, that *swingin'* jazz was everpresent in his 1969-1970 singles, as Pee Wee Ellis, Dave Matthews, et. al., understood that James Brown's Jazz was perhaps as important as his Gospel. How can you dissect "Gittin' A Little Hipper, Part Two" [Disc 2/Track 7] components and leave out jazz?
So we are presented here with JB's most intellectual recordings, with few exceptions (recuts of "It Was You" and "Bewildered"), progressive musically and deeply philospohical lyrically. But be assured that rhythms are typically all-involving for the musicians and for the listenes.
For this Reviewer, the chance to have on CD material that was not pressed on domestic l.p. at the time ("The Drunk"; the first studio remake of "Bewildered" - notable as a "G-rated" version in comparison to other JB period renditions); or pressed on domestic CD until now ("I'm Not Demanding - Part 1; "Any Day Now", "World - Part 1/2", "Let It Be Me" with Vicki Anderson). Although "It's Christmas Time" was found on the "Forever Soul Christmas" CD not long ago, those unfamiliar with said release will be astonsihed by one of the most sensitive performances of James Brown's career. I enjoy saying that his Christmas music is exceptional in his catalogue (or anyone's catalogue) Alan Leeds' expert analysis of the tracks is a bright aspect of the package; the sessionography will leave no one disappointed.
If I can pick out two highlights at this juncture, having just listened over headphones to this item, "World - Part 1" and "The Drunk" (instrumental) make the cut. The ballad has traveled through time well, and should be an enjoyable listen especially for those who recall his Music Scene TV Show and Joey Bishop Show performances at the time. On the Bishop Show he was asked to sing it a second time, so as to emphasize the *lyrics*. Strong and weak verses alternate through a full orchestral arrangement and the chart numbers do not suggest a "failure", as implied in the notes. If one studies Elvis' "If I Can Dream", Frank Valli's "To Give", or John Lennon's "Imagine", he'll/she'll find some "naive" sentiments, as well.
Somewhere in the copious notes is mention of...Volume 7. A happier circumstance in Pop music you won't find in '09. Let's work our way up to "Dooley's Junkyard Dogs"!
