'Feel Alright', a tune that charts the transition from rocksteady into reggae, is a version to James Brown's 'There Was A Time' adopted and adapted for Jamaican audiences over a dense choppy rhythm. James Brown's influence on reggae has seldom been acknowledged but the 'hardest working man in show business' knew and understood all about the power of the groove and the importance of a strong rhythm track. The B-side 'Instrumental' has caused Wailers scholars many a sleepless night as they strain to catch the snatches of vocals that have leaked on to the piano led rhythm for the full vocal to this backing track has never been released. Now it's your chance to do the same!
