WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
JAMES BROWN: ‘Froggy Mix’ (Boiling Point FROGX 1)
The beat lost me 30 seconds in amidst a flurry of “uh uh uh” effects, but everyone will know what to expect of this Froggy & Simon Harris megamix of all Mr Brown’s ’70s classics. the really clever Part 2 being in almost Double Dee & Steinski style: their problem on Part 1 being that any idiot can fill a floor better by chopping live from one JB single to another while on vinyl that would sound too rough, so something “special” is required.
