This was one of James Brown's earliest singles, recorded during his formative years with The Famous Flames. The A-side, "That Dood It," is a dynamic, high-energy track filled with Brown's signature charisma and rhythm, while the B-side, "Baby Cries Over the Ocean," offers a more emotional, soulful ballad. Please refer to the provided photos for a detailed view of the record's condition. The shellac shows noticeable wear consistent with its age and use. While it may not meet the standards of pristine collector-grade records, it still presents well as a historical artifact. Playback has not been tested, and the record is sold as-is. The sleeve is a vintage Coral Records sleeve, which may not be original to the record but complements its presentation.
Original 78 RPM pressings of James Brown's singles are increasingly rare, especially in this format. This is a must-have for fans of funk, soul, and 1950s R&B, as well as dedicated collectors of James Brown memorabilia.
