James Brown: Papa's Got a Brand New Bag (Original Full version)




This is the original version of JAMES BROWN and the Famous Flames "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag." This is not the widely know version or (Pt. 1) it's the original. Notice the tempo is slowed and it includes Parts 1 - 3 instead of just Part 1.

I love this version. Running at its natural speed enhances the funk factor, I think.

This is interesting. I was aware that the original was speeded up, and to be honest, I prefer the 'hothouse funk' of the original, faster full version on the 'Foundations of Funk' set. Having said that, this 'normal speed' version without echo is fascinating to hear, as we get to hear how it sounded to the musicians in the studio. It has a slightly lazier stank about it at this tempo.

I regard this track as one of the greatest records ever made. Imo, along with 'Cold Sweat' and 'Sex Machine', funk got no better smile cool .
