Notes

The cover and label just lists James Brown as the artist although these tracks we're originally released as by James Brown and the Famous Flames. The credit for track A1 lists Johnny Terry as Johny Terry and has been entered as such. The album is sub-titled "Federal & King Hits 1956-62" and is a mono recording.

Comments and Reviews

Lee Wrecker 25th Jan 2021		It was pressed by GZ Media in the Czech Republic but like you I was suspicious of the lack of licensing information. It is a great record but perhaps one of these EU legal loophole affairs much the same as when Italy had seemingly been able to release a lot of old jazz and blues records on the Joker label in the 70s and 80s. Strange that Discwrongs hasn't listed as unofficial yet because they're usually quick off the mark on that score. The records and CDs on this label seem to be widely circulated through legitimate retailers but it's still a bit of a mystery (dubious) to me.
PhilMH 25th Jan 2021		A bit of Googling about the barcode suggests that the first two digits 84 are the country code for Spain, so the company may be domiciled there, though the product is not necessarily manufactured there. Also, further to the absence of rights societies, I would have thought that a society should still be present, because the company should still have needed to get a publishing licence or licences from the relevant society for the use of the compositions, which is a separate copyright from the recordings. EDIT: society in Spain is SGAE.
PhilMH 25th Jan 2021		New label on me too, Lee, but it seems to be a European out-of-copyright label (no licensing credit - Universal has JB's Federal, King & Polydor catalogues), though there's no label address or publishing rights societies to indicate which part of Europe, and they don't seem to have a website. Probably legal if everything they release is before the end of 1962 - I think it was in 2012 that the copyright expiry term in the UK and some other territories went from 50 years to 75, so any recording first released up to 31st December 1962, like every track here, is still subject to the old rules.
Lee Wrecker 25th Jan 2021		The "New Continent" label is a new one on me but they seem to specialise in public domain recordings. At least that what I think they do otherwise this is a bootleg. I'm not sure how this got released but I'm sure glad to have picked it up. If PhilMH is about could you tell me about legitimacy of these New Continent releases? Is this stuff in the public domain now and does anyone know anything about this label?
