Dig Of The Day: James Brown – Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose (In The Jungle Groove) (1986)

Right here we have some serious and superb, or should I should say, some immaculate outstanding funk from the man and the band that need no introduction. The original studio version of Give It Up Or Turn It a Loose was released in 68/69 and went under 3 minutes; it appeared in a slightly longer rendition on James Brown And The James Brown Band ‎– Ain’t It Funky, while today’s version, the Tim Rogers remix originally appears on a compilation titled In The Jungle Groove released in ’86.

The original source for this remix you’re listenin’ to, is a 1970 version from James Brown‘s double album Sex Machine (one of the greatest and most important soul records of all time) with an original J.B.‘s lineup featuring Bootsy and Catfish Collins.

Enjoy the good stuff brothers and sisters.
