Released on Polydor in November 1973, this two-part 7-inch captures James Brown and the J.B.'s in full flight, laying down a deep, hypnotic groove built around an irresistible bassline, tight horn stabs and some beautifully syncopated drumming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten and produced by Brown, the track features Fred Wesley and the J.B.'s, with Maceo Parker and St. Clair Pinckney on saxophones, Jimmy Nolen on guitar, Fred Thomas on bass and John \"Jabo\" Starks on drums. Brown's rhythmic vocal delivery and organ playing sit right at the heart of the arrangement, while the band's locked-in performance gives the record its unmistakable funk swagger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePart 1 establishes the groove with Brown's commanding vocal, while the flip, titled \"Stoned To The Bone (Some More)\", extends the instrumental workout, giving the rhythm section plenty of room to stretch out. The track was recorded at International Studios in Augusta, Georgia, on 2 October 1973.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eStoned To The Bone\u003cbr\u003e\n+2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eA superb example of the deep, stripped-back funk that made Brown such an influential figure for generations of hip-hop producers and breakbeat collectors.
