james brown, the pillar of soul and funk, faced commercial challenges in the mid - 1970's, and more often than not was losing out to the young cats who had built their grooves on his innovations. but godfather jb never gave up - never stopped touring or recording. in the singles vol. 10 1975 -1979, the long-running james brown reissue series, we get every released, including a few long lost nuggets, from this period. among this era's classics are the worldwide hits 'get up offa that things' and 'it's too funky in here.' the singles vol.10: 1975-1979 features 36 tracks from the always-prolific james brown and a changing cast of j.b's. the music here leans a little heavier to disco, and jb was now calling himself the 'minister of new super heavy funk.' other hits from the period include 'hot (i need to be loved, loved, loved, loved)' - a funky of david bowie's 'fame' - a top 20 r&amp;b hits. 'i refuse to lose,' 'body heat' and 'give me some skin,' as well as the underrated 'spank,' 'if you don't give a dogone about it' and 'kiss in 77,' an uncharacteristic ballad that became a staple of the brown live show. rare tracks on the collection include 'dooley's junkyard dogs' a tribute to the university of georgia football team: a covers of the elvis presley hit 'love me tender' and the standard 'summertime' and 'everybody wanna get funky one more time', a 'lost' j.b.'s single that was the last on the people label. complementing the previous nine volumes, the singles vol 10: 1975-1979 includes a thick booklet with liner notes from james brown staffer alan leeds summarising every track, an introductory essay, a detailed recording timeline, rare photos, and reproductions of memorabilia.
