I think the new remastered version of the Jungle Groove is essential.

I like the 50th anniversary collection also, but no compilation truly satisfies me, because most of them only have part 1 of the songs.

Star Time, the boxed set.

Everything thing you will ever need.

Depends on the era you're interested in. In The Jungle Groove is my favourite. Foundations Of Funk: A Brand New Bag is also great, as is the Star Time box set (though that one features a lot of single versions). Also check out James Brown's Funky People parts 1, 2 and 3.
