Reviews Customer Reviews for Say It Loud I M Black And I M Proud      JB in Prime Peak      Rating:      you get the Power&Soul of JB here.the arrangements,Grooves&Vibe are all on the one here.the title Jam alone is timeless.you can still feel the Depth in the Songs to this Day.Soulful&Blues Felt.another solid Offering from JB.     Customer Reviews for Say It Loud I M Black And I M Proud Cd      All Killer No Filler from Mr. James Brown      Rating:      Not an album of Black Power manifestos, as the title would indicate (The Last Poets took care of that). This is a straight-up wonderful compilation of JB's best b-sides and singles from late 1967-68. Pts. 1 and 2 of the title cut (although somewhat poorly recorded) top it off. A smoking instrumental "Shades of Brown," a short version of the down home soul of "Licking Stick," The fine remake of "Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye," and another instrumental "Maybe I'll Understand" make this a CD you can listen all the way thru without skipping a song. Good old down-home unadulterated soul at it's best! Editorial Reviews for Say It Loud I M Black And I M Proud Audio Cd      Amazon.com      If there's a downside to the proliferation of box sets and greatest-hits packages, it's that artists are often reduced to little more than their smash singles and memorable B-sides. As a chance to hear James Brown as a full-album artist, Say It Loud: I'm Black and I'm Proud is well worth owning. Recorded in 1969, at the height of Brown's powers, this does contain several known songs, chief among them the fierce title track and the sexy "Licking Stick." But listen to Brown tear into the mournful "I Guess I'll Have to Cry, Cry, Cry" or the bluesy "Let Them Talk" and you will get a true sense of the breadth of Brown's many talents. --Amy Linden
