Product Description
Haight turned to hate in 1968 with very public, grotesque assassinations, a surge of violence in – and dissent toward – the Viet Nam War, and battles in America’s cities. Out of the turbulence, James Brown emerged as the voice of – and to – the people. Polydor Records and Hip-O Select proudly present James Brown The Singles, Vol. 5: 1967-1969, 43 tracks on 2CDs from the eye of the storm. The set opens with “I Can’t Stand Myself (When You Touch Me),” featuring James backed by The Dapps, a white soul band from Cincinnati. The set continues with “I Got The Feelin’” and it’s b-side “If I Ruled The World,” which James opened his August 26, 1968 Dallas concert with, as Chicago spiraled into chaos Also featured are “America Is My Home - Pts. 1&2,” “Licking Stick – Licking Stick - Pts. 1&2” (in mono and stereo), “There Was A Time,” “Say It Loud – I’m Black and I’m Proud - Pts. 1&2,” “Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose,” “Soul Pride - Pts. 1&2” and Marva Whitney’s “You Got To Have A Job (If You Don’t Work-You Can’t Eat),” plus radio i.d.’s and the Christmas singles “Santa Claus Goes Straight To The Ghetto” and “Let’s Unite The Whole World At Christmas.” 28 page booklet with rare photos and ephemera, detailed sessionography and in-depth track histories accompanies.
Each 2-CD volume in the series, James Brown: The Singles, documents every seven-inch single release by JB. All tracks are mastered from the original singles masters—many for the first time--whereas previous James Brown CD releases used LP or new mixes, and several tracks appear here on CD for the first time, ever.
