The Original Disco Man was a comeback but for a lot of the 70s he was pretty lost and churning out a bunch of self-indulgent dreck. He only came back when he deigned to hire an outside producer instead of self-producing.

Brown and Charles were very shrewd businessmen who owned their own masters so of course they were going to be in favor of the pro-business pro-tax cut party.

>The Black jet’s landing meant heightened vigilance against failure by staff members to address each other as “Mr.,” “Mrs.” or “Ms.” – a firing offense.
>Mr. Brown believed – as he conveyed in monologues to captive employee audiences – that white people’s success in business was based on respect for such titles, even though, by 1970, the folks at IBM and other corporate trend-setters were addressing each other as “Bob,” “Mary,” “Dick” and “Jane.” Nobody, of course, was going to point any of this out to Mr. Brown. His insistence on conformance to an imaginary white etiquette was bad enough, but the utterly arbitrary and capricious character of his punishments was legendary. Members of the band could occasionally be seen mowing the lawn at the station or the Brown estate, working off a JB-imposed fine.
Of course /mu/ loves James Brown

Sex Machine Today [Polydor, 1975]
If Someone were to airlift this one tape to you in the tundra, the remakes would be godsends. But if you own another version of "Sex Machine" you own a better one. Ditto "I Feel Good," ditto every aimless solo, and ditto the reading from Rand-McNally. Which leaves us with the symphosynth, the complaints that other musicians are ripping him off, and the putdowns of hairy legs. C+

THE LEGEND

James Brown wants you to dance. Pic a song
>>
You too gay too dance! Pick a song, cocksucker,!
>>
>>127960708
Yes, and it was awesome every single time he did it
>>
>>127960708
The appeal was the live performance. Too many "artists" nowadays can't do shit outside of a studio and have so little charisma that they have to turn their live performances into overbudgeted faggy theater kid shit with props and shit to try and smoke and mirrors people into believing they're actually good performers. All James Brown had to do was shout, dance a little and have his backing band play something funky and he'd have the audience eating out of his hand.
>>
If you want proggy funk, just listen to George Clinton.
>>
>>127960708
And had more impact than probably any other black artist
>>
>>127960708
It was his energy, his presence, his unapologetic attitude. This guy made a song called I'm black & I'm Proud. He made it ok for black people to like themselves.
>>
Post punk and industrial really owe a lot to gibberish and two chord riffs desu.
