James Brown initially played in a style that incorporated ballads, rock and roll, and classic uptempo R&B. James Brown soon found that he could do more with less by stripping away the more superfluous elements of his music and arrangements. Multiple chord changes were reduced to vamping on a single chord. Fleshed out lyrics were tossed in favor of improvised lines. The result was the creation of style of music called Funk. James Brown’s funk hits include “Get Up Offa That Thing”, “Funky Drummer”, “Cold Sweat” and “Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine”.
