Description

A super rare collectible, probably ONE OF A KIND.
An original 1968 test acetate from King Studios. This song has NEVER been released anywhere!!!!
It's an uptempo vocal recording made with the James Brown Band playing a repetitive riff. 
Made after a concert in Dallas, August, 1968. That concert has been released. The after show session produced THE POPCORN instrumental album. But, for some reason, this track disappeared deep in the JB vault. Times about 3:45
The "B" side is blank.
This is likely a one of a kind item for the serious collector.
Note that acetates are not intended for repeated play and the shellac often deteriorates over time. It is strongly suggested that the track be digitized for frequent play.
From the personal collection of noted James Brown historian Alan Leeds
