Gettin' Down To It by James Brown

Gettin’ Down to It is James Brown proving that he wasn’t just a powerhouse performer — he was a storyteller, a stylist and, above all, a man who could make any genre his own. This album sees James Brown not as the Godfather of Soul or the Father of Funk, but as a smoky jazz lounge singer, crooning classic standards alongside the phenomenal Dee Felice Trio. It’s a record filled with tenderness, passion, and a deep love for the jazz tradition that influenced him long before he became a global icon.
