5.0 out of 5 starsPlease, Please, Please
By D. Blank on December 29, 2007
Format: Audio CD
If you enjoy the "early" James Brown at a time when he was still seeking a definitive style, buy this cd. Goes without saying that "Please" is one of his best if not the best but many other examples here of the versatility that he possessed before the wheels fell off and he found "His Brand New Bag" ...

4.0 out of 5 starsEarly "R & B" James
By P. Silverman on June 21, 2008
Format: Audio CD
Before Soul and Funk arrived on the great New Music Freeway, there was the "Group Sound", churchy chorus supporting a gospel-styled lead singer, singing his/her proverbial heart out.
James Brown was a successful Gospel singer before he changed material, and some elements of his approach, for the new R & B sounds coming from the Dominoes, the Royals/Midnighters, The Royales, etc. Harmony maybe a bit rough; and a heavier backbeat. Rock and Roll was not established yet as modified R & B - lighter lyrics, faster beat - and performed mostly by white Country and City boys.
The title tune of this 16 track collection is that record which actually has never fit into *any* category. Not totally unlike "Turn The Lamp Down Low" or "I'm Just A Lonely Guy" by Brown idol Richard Penniman, it was still a new impulsive and imaginative....feelin'. Gospel testifying style over worldly words, if you will.
Although many of these tracks are found on other CDs, it's great to have the original lineup.
Talkin' 'bout the above-mentioned Macon neighbor, track two has Brown's admitted tribute, "Chonnie-On-Chon", a non-charter, but certainly presumprive jukebox ripper, almost as much R & R as in "Tutti Frutti", if you break it down - it's been said that the beat was not quite *there* on the revolutionary musical repast.
On that tune, and so many others here, the new fan/historian will be mesmerized by his vocal dynamics. He uses full range, with vibrato which the greatest Opera singers can envy. It seem that as his popularity grew, he demonstrated less and less of this otherworldy voicebox. By the Soul to Funk era, he incorporated more and more nonverbal expression.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsEssential Album for Knowledge
By A Customer on August 16, 2000
Format: Audio CD
James Brown gained wider appeal with th eTry Me recording and when King/Federal decided to put some of his 45's on disk and market it this became another major hit. Please, Please, Please with it almost plaintive wailing sound. The pop created and James perfected roots of the sixties soul are found on this disc. James became the God-Father after this style of music had changed to the Poppa got a Brand New Bag, Say It Loud, I'm Black and I'm Proud.. Listen to the beggings and soulful roots of the Parliaments, and then Funkadelic, which shared many band members with James' Famous Flames. This is one of the essential albums in history and while I would be hard pressed to single ou on James Brown disk, this is a good starting place for everyone who thought they knew his music to restart their education.

5.0 out of 5 starsthe FAMOUS FLAMES....WHO WERE THEY ?,
By willgee on September 19, 2006
Format: Audio CD
James Brown and the Famous Flames are PURE DYNAMITE and this is their VERY FIRST FANTASTIC ALBUM...But I wonder ...just how many people reviewing this CD really KNOW just WHO The FAMOUS FLAMES really were? If you ,like so many other music writers and Rock historians think that the FLAMES were the name of JAMES BROWN'S BAND ...you are INCORRECT !!! Please go back and read or re- read James' autobiography...then go on the internet and obtain the movies SKI PARTY and the TAMI SHOW.Then read the liner notes on the LIVE AT THE APOLLO CD...and ALL of the POLYDOR CD re-issues of James and the Flames early albums... such as this "PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE" album,(if you can find it on cd },the "THINK" album and the TRY ME album...They all say the SAME THING..."THE FAMOUS FLAMES ARE NOT THE BACKUP BAND ...THEY ARE THE VOCAL GROUP" !!! ANYONE who says otherwise DOESNT KNOW THE HISTORY OF JAMES BROWN!! JAMES himself even explained this on the DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW...but many so- called rock music historians STILL DON'T GET THE MESSAGE !! THE FAMOUS FLAMES were: BOBBY BYRD-the group's founder, and the man who actually discovered James Brown,BOBBY BENNETT,and the late LLOYD STALLWORTH..who replaced departing original member JOHNNY TERRY...JAMES BROWNS BAND was called ...believe it or not... THE JAMES BROWN BAND !! This means that stellar players such as FRED WESLEY, MACEO PARKER,ALFRED "PEE WEE " ELLIS AND OTHERS were BAND MEMBERS...NOT FAMOUS FLAMES !!THE FAMOUS FLAMES AND THE BAND WERE TWO SEPARATE ENTITES !!the ROLLING STONE HISTORY OF ROCK AND ROLL was one of the few printed publications that actually GOT IT RIGHT! In showing a picture of the JB troupe on stage back in the sixties..it clearly stated that JAMES was..."with the Famous Flames AND the James Brown Band!!Why the confusion?Read more ›
