Released on the UK Urban label in May 1988, this 12-inch takes a selection of Brown's most recognisable grooves, breaks and vocal snippets and weaves them into a continuous, dancefloor-ready workout built around Clyde Stubblefield's legendary \"Funky Drummer\" beat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClocking in at just under six minutes, the mix draws on an impressive selection of material, including \"The Payback\", \"Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine\", \"Soul Power\", \"Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose\", \"Get On The Good Foot\", \"Think (About It)\" by Lyn Collins and \"The Grunt\" by The J.B.'s. The result is a relentless succession of familiar hooks, horn stabs and drum breaks, seamlessly stitched together into one infectious groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe original UK 12-inch (Urban URBA 17) also includes a remix of \"Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose\", the \"Funky Drummer Remix\" of \"She's The One\" and \"Cold Sweat\", making it an especially useful package for DJs and breakbeat enthusiasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn excellent example of the late-'80s megamix phenomenon, and an important early production credit for Norman Cook, showcasing the creative possibilities of sampling and cut-and-paste mixing just before the arrival of the big beat era.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Funkadoobian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55737768542545,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/9850\/9393\/files\/James_Brown_Payback_The_Final_Mixdown_f.jpg?v=1794221731","url":"https:\/\/thefunkadoobian.com\/products\/james-brown-payback-the-final-mixdown","provider":"The Funkadoobian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
