James Brown ‎– Good, Good, Twistin' With James And His Famous Flames(1962)King/(2017) Ermitage - Vinyl Only - Rare Soul

Here,s James 5th Studio recorded album..I thought i,d dig this out for a blast then thought why not post it up!...You wont find this as a CD release, Vinyl Only still now years later. My copy on King was so worn & scratched a few years back i got this as a suitable replacment as i didnt want to be without this Gem! a truly great slab of R&B/Soul that makes a mockery of its age. "Good Good Twistin" by James Brown and his Famous Flames (King 780). 1962 was the year of The Twist ....the dance sensation that swept the nation. Although James Brown was not above recording dance records indeed, several are presented on this LP, he never cut a song with ‘twist’ in the title (unlike his label mates Hank Ballard & the Midnighters, who wrote and recorded “The Twist” first, then followed it with about a dozen twist records). This album was actually issued several times, twice with the same cover photo of two white teens twisting back-to-back. The second time the record came out, it was retitled Shout and Shimmy, when that track on the album became an R&B hit in 1963. A year later, the album was completely repackaged—with the same catalogue number and track listing, and most pressings have the original Good Good Twistin’ title on the label. Way back then quite a few albums had the tracks in the front cover and not the back,bit of a novelty now.What comes across is the power in his voice being a young man at the time...Essential for any JB Fan!
