It was 1967 I was 17 years old, the first live concert I ever went to was James Brown in St. Louis, went with my buddy and his girl and my girlfriend who 3 years later I married. When I went I had never heard of Mr. J B. One of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen. Mind blown.😊

[@zayvisuals]

Wow man, I bet it was electrifying. I would’ve had goosebumps going down my spine😅

[@doylewilson20]

I too saw James Brown @ 8yrs old in 1968 my sister took me to see him @ da Regal Theater in Chicago still remember dose plush burgundy velvet curtains with da tassels on da bottom opening up before he came out & da band was playing There was a Time & U could see his shadow behind a thin white curtain before he came out. Man he put on a show dat night 🌙 I think he had just released Popcorn. We also saw Billy Stewert da original singer of Sitting in the Park & I do Love U. He put on a great show too. I think he opened up for James Brown dat night. 🌙

I saw James Brown for the first time when I was six-years-old in 1967. He truly was the hardest working man in show business! As a family we never missed him when he appeared in Atlanta. But my fondest memory of him was when my Dad spotted him at Atlanta’s Airport on Christmas Day. Dad pointed him out and encouraged me to go tell him I was one of his biggest fans. I was about ten-years-old. “Hey Little Sister! Merry Christmas!,” he said! One of my best memories, evah!!

The man's music is literally a great component of hip hop music. His breaks were so accessible to DJ'S when they were just playing breaks in the early and mid 70's. Sampling which came in the mid 80's made it easy to capture what the earlier DJ'S were catching on the 1 and 2's....the producers could now put his breaks on wax and create what later became known as hip hop.

James Brown carried the entire weight of the musical world on his shoulders back in the day. Everyone paid attention to this man. You couldn't take your eyes off him. He'd be up on stage with 20 different performers, and he might as well have been up there by himself for how much attention the background players received compared to him. His influence was enormous as well. It wasn't just fans who couldn't take their eyes off him. Every notable musician of his time was turning to James Brown and trying to steal some of his mojo for themselves. Hendrix, Jagger, MJ and Prince all copied his showmanship. He was the embodiment of rock and funk and soul. There is and will only ever be one James Brown.

I haven’t finished watching this video yet, but one of my favorite James Brown “moves” was when he’d pretend to be completely worn out and his associates would come out with this huge cape, war it around his shoulders and proceed to assist him off the stage 👍🏽😅😂🤣 When ALL OF A SUDDEN, James would throw off the cape and push rush past the startled associates, only to do a Super Crazy Funky dance move and/or sing the rest of the tune! 😅😂🤣 It was just so original and too good! So keeping this in mind, I was watching a Prince and the Revolution video from way back in the day, and right in the middle of “I Would Due 4U”, all the music stops, the lights go out.......and about 20 seconds later you hear Prince scream “I’m not done yet!” 😅😂🤣 and THEN did some of the baddest moves and splits you can imagine!

Always been in a class of his own just as the likes of Prince & Micheal…
