It's the original by James Brown. Kurtis merely compiled the tracks for inclusion on the CD.

Jim,

every now and then... I'll go to a bar and check out the jukebox... 3 out of 5 have his 20 greatest hits released in the early 90's. :D

these are mostly rock bars where you are hearing a lot of classic rock... I'll throw in a buck... and give them a JB assault with 3 tunes in a row.... just to see what kind of reaction I get. Normally no reaction or people tapping their feet. :lol:

Apparently Kurtis Blow's is OOP, I need to dig deeper though, but this live version (Clap u Handa)is also available in the new James Brown "Millenium" vol 2 CD, also the original concert recording of "Sex Machine" double LP is also available.
