    This was originally recorded in 1958 when James Brown was 25 years old.
    "Try Me", titled "Try Me (I Need You)" in its original release, is a song recorded by James Brown and The Famous Flames in 1958. It was a #1 R&B hit and charted #48 Pop - the group's first appearance on the Billboard Hot 100.[1] It was Brown and the Flames' second charting single, ending a two-year dry spell after the success of "Please, Please, Please".

When I was 12 and started going to a local dance that was held every Saturday they were still playing this song, even though it was about a year old by then. And when they didn't play it, I requested it!

    When I hear James Brown, I think of, besides his huge personality and of the incredible artist and entertainer he was, is how grieved he was by Elvis's death. He spent hours at Graceland sitting at Elvis's casket. He was so grieved, he had to be helped out. He loved Elvis, the man not just the singer.

James did this song with the Famous Flames. Now, there's a live version from 1986. The man knew how to sweat! Oh the vocals!! Yes, 1958 voice, Jay. "Please, Please, Please" on stage. Thanks. Great reaction.

    Everytime I hear Try me it's one of those songs, to me that bring me back, to when I first heard it in the San Gabriel Valley Baldwin Park Ca. I liked songs that were 10 years before my time, Try Me still brings back the love I have for this song. I heard it 50 years ago and it feels like i'm hearing it for the first time eveytime I hear it, I had a 4 track tape player with James Brown's Night train, try me, prisoner of love and more all songs were sung by him in late 50s.

    1958 James Brown. His 1st single to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 peaking @ #48 but on the R&B/Soul chart -- where Brown ruled -- it went to #1. It was Brown's 2nd charted single on the R&B chart, preceded by "Please, Please, Please" which peaked @ #5 in 1956 -- 2 years earlier.

    It is a young James brown from 1958. This was his second massive hit after please, please, pleasefrom 1956. In another 6 - 7 years, he would begin to break away from this r'n'b sound and start perfecting what would become known as funk starting with I feel good and papa's got a brand new bag. He would perfect the funk sound with Cold Sweat in 1967.

    James Brown did not do a lot of slow tunes but I loved “Kiss in 77, “Please, Please, Please,” “It’s a Man’s World”. I can’t think of any others. My sister was a teen in the 60s and she was a crazy fan. She took her “little sisters” to the Regal Theater in Chicago. JB was the headliner. He used to come off stage at the end and the girls would go nuts and get all over him. Sister left us snd rushed the stage; came back with part of his tie wrapped around her hand!!! I was probably 9 years old at the time..it was wild!!

    A little background on this. Well I’ve been a James Brown fan since I was 12 and 1968 he’s my all-time favorite singer and I have basically everything he ever recorded and saw him live about 100 times over 35 years. But anyway his first record was PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE in 1956. It went up the number six on the Soul charts and for the next two years he put out about 10 singles that basically flopped and he was given an ultimatum by Syd Nathan at King Records. He came up with TRY ME. Which went to number one on the Soul charts in number 48 on the pop charts and the rest is history. The background singers were the Famous Flames, actually he was part of the Famous Flames at the time. That was a great reaction I love that you guys love the song? A couple of suggestions please. LOST SOMEONE and BEWILDERED. If you do react to those make sure you get the original singles from the early 1960s.

    That's a *very* young James Brown, late 1950s, when he sang a lot of ballads. You need to check out "Bewildered," from the same era. This is a decade before I was born but I love me some James Brown ballads. About ten years later, Bob Marley did a soul-ish ballad called "Try Me," clearly influenced by this. (Bob loved American R&B.)

    Prisoner Of Love and Bewildered are two big hits from the early era of James Brown. Just before he broke out with the beginnings of funk! You should check out the TAMI show video from 1964 and his performance of Out Of Sight! That whole set was hot. The next act to follow him was The Rolling Stones who were on their introduction to America tour. They were backstage watching James and didn't want to go on behind him because he burned it down! They were terrified! It was rumored that as he passed them leaving the stage, he said...."Welcome to America boys!" 😉🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣

    This song was recorded in late-1958. On this record, and many other, James Brown sang with The Famous Flames. The song was released on the Federal Records label. According to Wikipedia, "Try Me" went to "Number One" on the Billboard R & B Chart, and was their first "Top 50" hit on the Billboard Pop Singles Chart. The single sold over one million copies in 1959.
    In the 1950s and early-1960s, James Brown was a much smoother singer, and did some stylistic experimentation on those James Brown And The Famous Flames records and albums. By the mid-1960s, James Brown And The Famous Flames evolved into a more soulful sound on records, in order to compete with the Stax/Volt Records success during that time period. He and his group and orchestra traveled all over the United States, from coast to coast, developing word of mouth amongst the Rock music fans, and building up goodwill with regional promoters and radio stations. He proved to them that he and his group and orchestra could make them money. By the mid-1960s, James Brown And The Famous Flames began to make music industry insiders take notice, as he was increasingly being booked for TV performances on regional Rock music programs that appealed to white audiences. Brown hit the big time when he was booked for a series of TV performances on "The Ed Sullivan Show" on CBS. I remember watching a TV performance by James Brown And The Famous Flames on "The Ed Sullivan Show" here on UA-cam, and Ed Sullivan made it known to the audience and viewers at home, that James Brown was a very important music artist in the music industry, and was respected for his songwriting, and his appeal to wide varieties of music audiences of that time.

    I first heard this song back in the 90’s from a movie called Untamed Heart, even as an 11 year old I was IN LOVE with this song and the voice singing it. Still one of my favorite songs of all time, we actually had this song play at our wedding ❤
