'I Feel Good, I Got You' was released as KING-946 in 1966. The title single was the biggest seller in King Record's history, it stayed six weeks at the top of the R&B chart and made #3 Pop. During the '60's King Records released albums by Brown named after and containing whatever popular single was just a hit and filling the rest of the album with a variety of previously released singles that have no rhyme, reason or thematic continuity. As you can see below, the material here went back as far as 1959, with most coming from recording sessions between 1960 and 1962.
