Description:

Released in 1967 on King Records, “Let Yourself Go” captures the spirit of Brown’s live revue in a studio setting — loose, funky, and brimming with crowd-call energy. The groove builds around a churning bassline and Brown’s exhortations to release inhibition, mirroring his concert showmanship.

The B-side, “Good Rockin’ Tonight,” revisits the Wynonie Harris jump-blues classic, reimagined through Brown’s frenetic lens. It’s a fiery bridge between the swing-era R&B Brown grew up on and the stripped-down funk he was pioneering, showcasing his band’s dynamic range and relentless drive.
