The parts to 24 of James Brown's best known grooves are disected and transcribed, complete with recorded renditions on CD. Guitar and bass parts are written out in notation and TAB, and each drum part has a simple and an advanced transcription. I'm an experienced guitarist but a beginner drummer and I'm looking forward to using this book to develop my drumming skills. An essential resource for those wishing to unlock the secrets of the funk! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ with Funk/Soul guitar it tends to be more on the feel than the challenge so although didn't waste a lot of time on these to get *by K***R on 4 July 2015* Although a guitarist, many of the lines here are very basic and repetitive but what a bonus to have Bass lines to be messing with too. Going back to Guitar lines, with Funk/Soul guitar it tends to be more on the feel than the challenge so although didn't waste a lot of time on these to get playing, enjoyed the feel of each song and well presented in Tab form. Drums are even broken down here if any use to multi-musiciains. Loved the bios on each song too from session musicians who played on tracks. Well worth a buy. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MAKE IT FUNKY *by L***N on 9 May 2007* Having recently had the privilege to see the Funkmasters live (stubblefield, starks, wesley, worrell) I had a look in Amazon and came up with this book. So pleased with it. The writers have done a fantastic job. The notation and recorded examples are spot on. Very faithful to the original recordings in my opinion. (e.g - the amazing bass run Bootsy does at the end of the bridge in "give it up turn it loose" is included and is perfect.) That's a real anorak thing to say.Also as a non-music reader, all guitar and bass parts have been tabbed which is handy.If you like the G.F.O.S and play guitar bass or drums you should get this. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Funkmasters -- The Great James Brown Rhythm Sections 1960-1973: For Guitar, Bass and Drums, Book & Online Audio (Manhattan Music Publications) - Standing in the Shadows of Motown: The James Jamerson Bass Method – Classic Motown Bass Lines and Biographical Tribute with Online Audio --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/58929264-the-funkmasters-the-great-james-brown-manhattan-music-publications](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/58929264-the-funkmasters-the-great-james-brown-manhattan-music-publications) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-29*
