"Out of Sight" is a funk song recorded by James Brown in 1964 featured on the album of the same name. A twelve-bar blues written by Brown under the pseudonym "Ted Wright", the stuttering, staccato dance rhythms and blasting horn section riffs of its instrumental arrangement were an important evolutionary step in the development of funk music.
