First issued in 1971. Sho is Funky Down Here and The Grodeck Whipperjenny are a pair of albums that are the result of an unlikely but highly productive musical relationship between James Brown, a superstar at the creative and commercial peaks of his long career, and David Matthews, a then young arranger-musician whose limited professional experience had little or nothing to do with the funk and soul of hiscollaborator. James Brown’s psychedelic album, created by his then-bandleader David Matthews, and issued at the same time as Matthews’ classic The Grodeck Whipperjenny. Underground, fuzzy, rambling psych-funk. The genesis of Brown’s Talking Loud And Saying Nothing, a 1990s hip hop sample staple, informing A Tribe Called Quest, Large Professor, Brand Nubian and others.Lacquered directly from the original master tapes at Capitol Studios. This is the first official reissue of both of these rare titles. Contains an extensive booklet with full annotation, liner notes by Brown historian Alan Leeds and never-before-published photos.

LP - Vinyl has been out of print since at least the mid-90s. 3000 only worldwide.
