This boxed set charts Brown's early rise as a hard-hitting R\u0026amp;B-styled vocalist (\"Please Please Please\", \"Try Me\") and shows how his band-leading skills (one can't forget inventive players like saxophonist Maceo Parker, bassist Bootsy Collins, drummer Jabo Starks, and many others) changed the face of soul and invented funk in the 1960s and early '70s with impeccably timed (\"Papa's Got a Brand New Bag\"), highly rhythmic (\"I Can't Stand It \"), primal (\"Licking Stick Licking Stick\") hits. The box also does a definitive programming job on Brown's more spotty later years--another plus. This is where beginners should start, but several extended versions and rarities (such as \"Papa\", raised an octave on original release, at normal speed) make it a must for completists too. --Don Harrison\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 042284910828\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0042284910828\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eModel:\u003c\/b\u003e CD849108\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44015137915139,"sku":"0D-5B0K-219R","price":60.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0030\/9765\/7390\/products\/51YRyrZT78L.jpg?v=1686858758","url":"https:\/\/idshop.ca\/en\/products\/star-time-4cd","provider":"ID Shop.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
