This track was actually recorded in 1971, but was not released in the USA until 1974.
Just love the groove of the funky assed bass line. The horns are great too and the guitar is so tight!!!!! The Drummers funky as all beat hell too!!!! Love this!!!!!
In 1974, James Brown created an instrumental version of "Soul Power" by having Maceo Parker and Fred Wesley overdub new horn parts onto the rhythm track of the original recording. Sound engineer Bob Both added sound effects at several points to conceal where the original horn track had bled through into the rhythm parts. Titled "Soul Power 74" and credited to "Maceo and the Macks", the new version was released as a two-part single on People Records and charted #20 R&B and #109 Bubbling Under Pop. It also appeared on the album Us!.
I should buy a convertible Cadillac… 71, white, red interior, and blast this song everywhere I go. Walmart? Yes. Walgreens? Yes. My grandma's church? Yes. An animal adoption place? Maybe not, but probably.
Chill Rob G – 'Court is in Session' and Lord Alibaski – 'Lyrics in Motion' both use parts from the sax only break-down section.
