Better late then never

[@brandonhernandez3482]

Welcome to real music

[@PabeGeet]

Where was he?

[@davidgillum8506]

James Brown had been making music from the early sixties until his death 😮

[@PabeGeet]

@@davidgillum8506 I was listening to this and it switched to a show from 2004 on my phone while in my pocket and the man sounded the same, I didn’t realize until I look at my phone. Incredible voice

[@TurboMan51]

Mr.Joe Collier long time member in the James Brown Band the first trumpet player to come out front for his solo spot..passed away at the age of 70 February 7, 2023 Augusta Georgia. May his soul rest in perfect peace and thanks for the music Joe.👍🏼💯😎

[@ericbush6124]

Sorry for his loss rest in Peace

[@modernretroradio993]

Thanks for sharing this. I'm a big fan of James Brown's '70s and '80s recordings, and Joe Collier was on many, many of them.

[@theemrpoint123]

Rest in peace, Mr. Collier. Funky heaven.

James Brown you're the KING! I love when you said "I recognize all new talents" and you say Janis Joplin and Jimmy Hendrix.

[@devilpig6]

I ran across a James Brown DVD years ago at a Walgreens bargain bin... Until then I'd only ever heard parodies from comedians and movies of James Brown... I was so amazed at the level of energy and utter perfection of their timing... Its probably still my favorite concert I've ever witnessed...

[@jackjamieson1120]

yeh people love to send up characters. I saw him and his band live. couldn't believe how good and tight they were. It was incredible

[@siriusstar99]

That’s why they call him the Godfather of Soul and the Hardest working man in show business . Love , Respect ,and gratitude 🙏

[@broderickgillum8854]

James Brown music still sounds good. Their will never be another James Brown The Godfather of soul. You will be miss Brother James Brown. Peace and Soul.✊️

[@Raphaelzis]

this is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!!

[@alexnietzsche]

I am going to tell you what led me to buy the first CD of James Brown's music; it was 30 years ago, I only listened to Living in America on TV - One day I was traveling by train, and a man with a guitar sat beside me; he was a musician, and we talked; at one point he said something about James Brown - that people with no time would cross the Atlantic to be able to watch the first 15 minutes of James Brown's concerts live. And I, having only heard a single song of his, I immediately thought "I'm certainly missing something"; so when I was walking through downtown Lisbon I bought my first James Brown CD, it was the music in this video. I heard them once, then 10, then 100 and I must now be close to 1001 times ...

[@d.cypher2920]

😎🇺🇸

[@danilodelavegac]

Les voy a contar qué me llevó a comprar el primer CD de música de James Brown; Fue hace 30 años, solo escuchaba Living in America en la televisión. Un día viajaba en tren y a mi lado se sentaba un hombre con una guitarra; él era músico y hablábamos; en un momento dijo algo sobre James Brown: que la gente sin tiempo cruzaría el Atlántico para poder ver los primeros 15 minutos de los conciertos de James Brown en vivo. Y yo, habiendo escuchado sólo una canción suya, inmediatamente pensé “ciertamente me estoy perdiendo algo”; Así que cuando caminaba por el centro de Lisboa compré mi primer CD de James Brown, era la música de este vídeo. Los escuché una vez, luego 10, luego 100 y ahora debo estar cerca de 1001 veces...

[@irenebradle5493]

James Brown what an incredible singer always an incredible show! Saw him 3 times,the 1st time in 1962 at Bates Barn in Peoria Illinois. Absolutely the best shows I have ever seen.

[@Brando-Chicago]

HE LET THE BAND COOK FOR 20 MINS BEFORE HE CAME OUT

[@filipkecina2832]

that was the funniest thing for me when I watched/listened it for the first time ❤

[@thomasfleischer83]

The Godfather of Soul and his fantastic band are still unique. The performance of the both drummers is remarkable.

[@prophetessforchrist24-7]

Agree. My mom was a huge fan of James Brown, The Godfather of Soul. He performed in Washington DC many years in the 50s and 60s. I am a huge fan of Chuck Brown, The Godfather of GoGo, but I like a lot of James songs that my mom played all the time.

[@thflam]

Colossal juggernaut relentless.... this is one of the greatest peices of live jam film I've seen barr the Monteray Lost Tapes. The man is (& the band) just stunning. Thanks jaysus J B landed on our rock ball, Earth. Had the pleasure of seeing him live 3 times (2002 2003) but this gig takes the biscuit xx JB

World.'.. "Say It Loud, I'm Black And I'm Proud" We Love And Miss You God Father Of. SOUL

[@kendethstryke3020]

Well the first set was a stinted James Brown appearance with far more opening songs by the band itself. Took 35 minutes for JB to come out. That earlier crowd was getting angry by the delay of JB.

[@williamanderson1091]

Well that showed how good the the band really was. James had some greats backing him. Not taking anything from James himself he was one of those entertainers who had the it factor. Longevity , excitement, an extensive catalog, dance moves, and much more.

[@ousdrammeh5532]

He was once of the world musician heroes,that would never forget.may his gentle soul rest in perfect peace
