Initially, I thought of I GOT THAT FEELIN', COLD SWEAT, and SUPER BAD but after a quick visit to JB Greatest Hits I really like what's happenin underneth SAY IT LOUD and HOT PANTS

Final verdict (tonight) SUPER BAD

Impossible to choose..."Cold Sweat"? "Brand New Bag"? "Sex Machine"? Any of the above or the last one I listened to.

Favorite drum line, though: "The Funky Drummer"

Listened to this and "Say It Loud" a couple times last night. I was dancing all around and thinking, "What incredible bass lines".

Need to add some more JB to the shelves!!!

Did James Brown or the JB's have a bass line that wasn't THE BEST?

One of my favorites is "Blessed Blackness," just because it is so different.

How about "Soul Power?" :bwallace:

I understand that in his book of a year or two back, Fred Wesly says that James Brown knows almost nothing about music. He sure made some great records though. And those bands were something else.

My favorite bass player of James' was "Sweet" Charles Sherrell. Almost everytime I hear a bassline I really dig on a JB cut, it almost always is credited to Charles. He was bad, also a great singer too if you ever hear the single JB cut on him.

Famous last words...

"Fred, I Love you like a brother. I can't go no further. I got to let you go"

"Talkin' Loud and Sayin' Nothing" has a great "Bootsy" bassline.
