James Brown

20 All-Time Greatest Hits

review
by Stephen Cook

While Brown's 30-track, 40-track, and even 50-track collections are excellent choices as well, this fine hits package is the best one for Brown neophytes looking for a way in. Covering his prime stretch from the late '50s through the early '70s, 20 All-Time Greatest Hits! includes early R&B milestones ("Please, Please, Please"), epochal '60s sides ("Papa's Got a Brand New Bag, Pt. 1"), and latter-day funk classics ("Papa Don't Take No Mess, Pt. 1"). And that's not to mention such perennials as "Mother Popcorn," "Hot Pants," "Cold Sweat," and "Think." Start your Brown obsession here.

Other singers were more popular, others were equally skilled, but few other African-American musicians were so influential over the course of popular music. And no other musician, pop or otherwise, put on a more exciting, exhilarating stage show: Brown's performances were marvels of athletic stamina and split-second timing.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto; background:white"> Solid Gold: 30 Golden Hits , also called 30 Golden Hits/21 Golden Years, is a  greatest hits   compilation album   by  James Brown. The  double album   set was initially released in 1977 on  Polydor, and was re-released by the label in 1986. The album's  liner notes   listed the release dates and U.S. chart positions   for each song and included an essay by Cliff White. According to  Allmusic   reviewer William Ruhlman, the collection was "state-of-the-art", an influential model "not only...for the many Brown compilations that would follow in later years, but also for the compilation boom in general".[1]|undefined In 1981, Village Voice critic  Robert Christgau   described it as "an essential collection."[3]|undefined Allmusic indicates that it supplies "the essence of James Brown", but also states "[i]t has since been superseded by the 1991 four-disc Star Time boxed set".[1]|undefined
