Classic James Brown

~ Release by James Brown (see all versions of this release, 1 available)

Annotation

The CD in my collection has the same TOC, catolog#, barcode, release year, ... but doesn't say "Classic James Brown" anywhere... the only likely title is "Colour Collection"... but who am I to argue. They've probably issue the same CD twice in slightly different packaging.
