The Godfather sharing some truth with young America ano 1966. Pretty clean copy but styrene pressing so light background noise.

Does it get much tighter than this. Fred Wesley and James Brown leading a rhythm and brass section second to none. Disc is in very decent VG+ shape, plays almost EX, label has spots, stamp and writing.

Must have material to any beatdigger or funk fan. Blue label King original in visual average shape but as you will hear still a very useful play out copy for cheap.
