Bootsy's 1969 demo for James Brown "More Mess On My Thing" due Black Friday

The three-track More Mess On My Thing album is being issued by Now-Again for Black Friday (Record Store Day) on November 22. 

Here's the scoop...
Rumored no more: More Mess On My Thing, the demo Bootsy Collins and his band recorded for James Brown in 1969 that won them the title “The J.B.’s” – and changed the course of popular music. Also included is the complete version of “When You Feel It, Grunt If You Can,” presenting two never-issued songs in a 22-minute medley, and the unreleased instrumental “The Wedge.”

This is the companion piece to Now-Again’s first-ever issue of the lost J.B.’s album These Are The J.B.’s. All tracks mixed by Mario Caldato, directly from the original multi-track masters. Overseen by Egon and Universal Music Group’s in-house Brown expert Harry Weinger.

Contains extensive booklet with full annotation, liner notes by James Brown historian Alan Leeds and never-before-published photos. Coming out on Black Friday Record Store Day November 22!
