Throw a rock and you‘ll hit a dozen comps loaded with modern-day James Brown imitators or deservedly forgotten vintage funk. On a lucky day you‘ll hit Movements, which resurrects 14 true gems that saw life only on 45s and in print runs in the hundreds. B.B. Brown‘s “I Weep” is a funk/soul burner that should replace tired Motown hits on the radio, while Dr. Oliver‘s “Soul Popcorn Pts. 1 & 2” stitches together a lost shouter into a true frenzy. The ladies get theirs here too, led by Sheila Skipworth‘s organ-and-flute jam “Look What You Done To Me.”
