Brown, who died on December 25, 2006, recorded three Christmas-themed albums during his creative peak: 1966's James Brown Sings Christmas Songs, 1968's A Soulful Christmas and 1970's Hey America It's Christmas. The best tracks from each are collected on this fantastic set. The Godfather was re-inventing rock & roll in his own funk-revolutionary image throughout the late Sixties, so it's no surprise that he injected some soul-power into the holly, jolly time of year.

Unlike most artists who bend themselves to fit the standards of the season, Brown didn’t abandon his carefully crafted style for Christmas: he made records that sounded like his hits, they just happened to be about Santa Claus and Christmastime. And his three holiday LPs were not interchangeable, either

Christmas is, of course, a time for remembering those less fortunate than oneself, and in the Salvation Army role for the funk brigade we’re fortunate to have no less a figure than Mr Dynamite. In what is, by his standards, a pretty restrained performance, Brown cajoles, exhorts and generally does his best to persuade St Nick not just to make sure he doesn’t forget about the inner city poor as he’s making his rounds, but to head there before he goes anywhere else. The song was the first track on Brown’s final album of 1968, A Soulful Christmas, which, if there were a chart for records with the greatest disparity between the excellence of the music and the awfulness of the sleeve, would certainly make the all-time top 10.
