James Brown was an American singer, songwriter, arranger, and dancer, who was one of the most important and influential entertainers in 20th-century&nbsp;popular music&nbsp;and whose remarkable achievements earned him the honorific nickname “the Hardest-Working Man in Show Business.”

Brown began his career as a&nbsp;gospel&nbsp;singer and rose to prominence in the mid-1950s, building&nbsp;a reputation as a dynamic live performer with the Famous Flames and his backing band, sometimes known as the James Brown Band or the James Brown Orchestra. His success peaked in the 1960s with hit singles such as "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag", "I Got You (I Feel Good)" and "It's a Man's Man's Man's World".

During the late 1960s, Brown moved to a new approach to music-making, emphasising stripped-down interlocking rhythms that influenced the development of funk music. By the early 1970s, Brown had fully established the funk sound with records such as "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine" and "The Payback". He also became noted for songs of social commentary, including the 1968 hit "Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud". Brown continued to perform and record until his death in 2006.

In a career spanning over 50 years James Brown became known as a progenitor of funk music and influencing the development of many other genres. All his hit songs, hidden gems and collaborations are now bundled on Collected. It contains 29 songs, including music from his early days with the Famous Flames, the J.B.’s and a wide collection of tracks from his solo career.Brown began his career as a gospel singer and joined a rhythm and blues vocal group, the Famous Flames, as the lead singer in the 1950s. Later on he formed his own band and released successful singles as Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag, I Got You (I Feel Good) and It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World. While developing the funk to a new level he created the J.B.’s, with which he scored hits like Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine and The Payback. Brown was inducted into 1st class of the Rhythm and Blues Music Hall of Fame, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Songwriters Hall of Fame. During the years he gained different honorific nicknames including “Godfather of Soul”, “Mr. Dynamite”, and “Soul Brother No. 1”.James Brown Collected includes an insert with liner notes, photo’s and credits. The release is available as a pressing on “Stone Cold” black vinyl.
