‘Motherlode’ is a 1988 compilation album that features several unreleased (at the time) tracks or versions. The incessant ‘She’s The One’ is a highlight as is the seven minute take on ‘I Got Ants In My Pants’. The elongated version of ‘People Get Up And Drive Your Funky Soul’ is a nine-minute slab of JB Funk. There are live takes on ‘There It Is’ and ‘Say It Loud I’m Black And I’m Proud’ and two superb instrumentals ‘The Bomb’ and ‘Untitled Instrumental’. It is double vinyl with 2 tracks that were not on the original vinyl comp including a long version of ‘Bodyheat’, ‘Motherlode’ is amongst the finest of James Brown compilations and essential for all Funk fans – every track a winner.
