Sex Machine is the 1970 album by James Brown. While promoted as a live album, the applause of some of the tracks were dubbed in during post-production. A few of these songs would become the source of countless hip-hop samples, including "Give It Up Or Turnit A Loose". This CD was released on 23 March, 1993.

An instant best-seller when released in September 1970, this album has rightfully passed into classic status. What's not widely known – and if you don't want to know, stop here – is that the album's original disc 1 (tracks 1-5) and disc two (tracks 6-15) are two separate recordings: one studio, one live, by two radically different bands. And the title track wasn't even the hit version.

Of course, James Brown made it work.

JB returned to his adopted home town of Augusta, GA, in the fall of 1969 after an unrewarding time living in St. Albans, Queens (New York). A homecoming concert at Augusta'a Bell Auditorium was recorded on October 1, intended to be released as a live album called James Brown At Home With His Bad Self. But when five months later his great band of the Sixies quit, the album was shelved.

With "Sex Machine" a smash single in the spring of 1970, Brown introduced The J.B.'s featuring Bootsy and Catfish Collins. On stage, the hungry young group reinvented the back catalog; not even the current hit was safe. Brown documented the revolution in a late-night studio session that summer. Dubbing in canned applause, he combined it with an LP's worth of the 1969 live stage show, including two recent studio singles, "Lowdown Popcorn" and "Brother Rapp" – also with dubbed applause – for good measure.

Sex Machine hit No. 4 on the R&B charts, N. 29 Pop. Through band upheaval and changing tastes, James Brown never broke stride. With his bad self.
