The 22 tunes scrutinized span Brown’s greatest years, from early R&B hits such as «Think» through the funk-defining genius of «Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag» and «Cold Sweat» to the fat-free polyrhythmic potency of such early-’70s tracks as «Hot Pants» and «Make It Funky.
Trying to learn to play funk from transcribed guitar licks is like attempting to reconstruct a stained-glass window with just the red pieces. In funk more than perhaps any other pop music, individual parts make little sense out of context — they’re defined by the way they interact with their opposing rhythms.
Play through a guitar transcription of, say, a Kiss song you’ve never heard, and you’ll have a good idea what the tune is about; study the isolated guitar line from James Brown’s «Cold Sweat,» and you won’t know jack. But the minutely detailed rhythm-section transcriptions and analyses in this labor-of-love tome illuminate the explosive ego-free groovesmanship that elevated these classic J.B. tracks to the top tier of American pop culture.
