Get On the Good Foot is the 34th studio album by American funk and soul musician James Brown. It was released as a double LP on October 27, 1972 by Polydor Records.
The album debuted on Billboard magazine's Top LP's chart in the issue dated December 9, 1972, peaking at No. 68 during a seventeen-week run on the chart.
In a contemporary review for Rolling Stone, Russell Gersten said most of the album comprises a few "horrible" new songs and many "inferior" renditions of older songs from Brown, whom Gersten accused of repetitiveness and "egomania". Robert Christgau from The Village Voice said "if this were the world's only James Brown album it would be priceless. But there's a lot of waste here, and Brown's voice can't carry ballads the way it used to".
