James Brown: Reality and Breakin' Bread
Bob Fisher, NME, 5 April 1975
A WORD OF advice. Never attempt to review James Brown product whilst the records are actually playing. It's impossible either to write or type when your hips are doin' the bump and your arms are doin' a pastiche, of the funky chicken.
