James Brown: Soul On Top (Verve By Request Series) LP
King, 1970
In the liner notes to this grooving 1969 album, featuring a big band led by drummer Louis Bellson and arranged by Impulse! star Oliver Nelson, the Godfather of Soul explains that he is a “jazz man at heart.” Brown’s soul consigliere, saxophonist Maceo Parker, helps make this a swinging, spirited and satisfying set of standards and JB hits.
Verve By Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
