Fred Wesley & J.B.'s, Lyn Collins - Doing It To Death, You Can Have Watergate (LIVE)

[@Mssebn11]

One of the funkiest hits ever! The lil horn 🎺🪈

[@kerryeberrie6587]

We worked our frustrations out on the dance floor back then...Godfather of Soul James Brown would make you blow your back out jamming to his funky good music❤❤❤

For everyone that keeps asking this aired September 8, 1973 this was one of the last episodes before the set change and the introduction of the TSOP theme

[@_donald.harrison04]

From then on you could tell the show started to embrace early forms of pop and disco music. I loved the early R&B years

[@MD-DLive]

Has an echo! Like it

[@marvinwhittaker]

Pure funk, extremely funk, outrageous funk. Funkier than an unwashed armpit. The JBs was just as funky as chitlins.

Doing it to death rocked many Rent parties in the 70s. The long version was on the album. But an even longer one was on the jbs anthology.

[@Joy-j4z8u]

OMG

[@francisrobbins1499]

Love this period of the JB's thanks for uploading at least someone likes to share their rarities.

[@SoulOnTopJB]

Thanks, not really mine hence the sound issues 👍

[@francisrobbins1499]

@@SoulOnTopJB well at least you actually bother to post stuff. All these so called collectors who hoard footage of him should be ashamed, why have it if no one gets to see it but themselves.

Wow! Never saw this performance on Soul Train! Always thought it was only two shows they appeared on. Thanks again!

I have this whole show. I would post it, but I don’t want Soul Train Productions coming after me, though! 🤣

[@SoulOnTopJB]

What live songs are performed besides these two and the over dubbed Sly Slick and Wicked? You could send it this way, I'll take the heat from the defunct Soul Train Production crew 😁

[@ChristianMcBrideTV]

@@SoulOnTopJB They did “Watergate….,” “Doing It To Death,” “Gimme Some More” and Lyn Collins did “Take Me As I Am”.

[@SoulOnTopJB]

I only found out about it myself a week or so ago thanks to a subscriber 👍

[@mysticakhenaton1701]

Brown had the BEST...Fred Wesley on Trombone, Maceo Parker on Sax, Bobby Bird, and John Starks on drums. Starks is playing drums on, I GOT THE FEELIN. and Fred Wesly did those horn arrangements on the SOS band #1 hit. TAKE YOUR TIME.

[@mysticakhenaton1701]

MASTER Musicians folks.

[@williamparker3328]

Clyde Stubblefield was the drummer on I Got The Feeling!

[@modernretroradio993]

There's not a doubt in my mind that James Brown told Fred, Lyn, Maceo and all the others that they just didn't cut it without him. James Brown always felt that he had to be in the room in order for his band to be on point. He had them re-record "The Popcorn" after a show in Dallas because their recorded takes -- without him -- lacked something.

[@SoulOnTopJB]

😄 They certainly didn't produce the same music when he wasn't around, either within the JB fold or after they had left, the only possible exception would be Maceo's first LP

[@GeoffreyPheasantFilm]

Wow!! That's wonderful. Thank you for sharing. Phew!! Did anyone manage to find a recording of "Maceo & The Macks - Cross the tracks" which also appeared on Soul Train? The band and track was listed as performing, was it ever airied? Recorded? Thanks for any info?

[@SoulOnTopJB]

I haven't come across it.

[@JEvans-fz2qt]

You did it!....I hear you had to chop it and loop parts with some skippin' in the song but you did your thang.....Glad we got together for this rare occasion! I got something new.....email me later.

[@SoulOnTopJB]

Yeah thanks for the heads up 👍 Recall your "steal" comment 😄

[@classicrellz24]

Let me see if I can name these cats to the best of my ability. On Tenor Saxophone is St. Clair Pinckney, on Alto Saxophone is Maceo Parker on Trombone in which he calls the "Soul Sister" is Fred Wesley, on rhythm guitar on the left is Hearlon "Cheese" Martin and on the right is Jimmy "Chank" Nolan, I believe on bass on the left is "Sweet" Charles Sherrell and on the right is Fred Thomas, on lead drums is John "Jabo" Starks, on the other is John Morgan, on congas/percussion is Johnny Griggs, now here's the tricky part; I believe the trumpeter with the mustache on the left is Jerone "Jasaan" Sanford and the cat next to him has to be either Ike Oakley or Russell Crimes.

[@SoulOnTopJB]

Very good, I'd go for Ike Oakley next to Jasaan 👍

[@ChristianMcBrideTV]

Definitely Ike Oakley and Jasaan. Russell Crimes and Darryl "Hasaan" Jamison played trumpet on the '74 episode.

Why all the glitches in the music ? I want to groove w/Fred and Maceo.
