Maceo play that horn! I was 9 years old at a James Brown concert 1971 in New Orleans, LA with my parents. I will always remember James Brown saying Maceo blown that horn! He was outstanding and extraordinary! A memorable moment for me with the 2 people that loved me unconditionally!!!!❤🎉

[@breezecanada4038]

I don't care what anyone else says, Fred Wesley, Maceo Parker and Pee Wee Ellis will always be THEE GREATEST HORN SECTION TO EVER PLAY MUSIC.......PERIOD!!!!

[@justabill1137]

I don't disagree, but the Tower of Power horns belong in the conversation, as well.

[@nutube06]

T. O. P can certainly be in the conversation of force and power but when it comes to style, feeling and groove, no contest. The JB's had set the standard. Soul power, baby!

[@randyjackson155]

We need a Maceo/TOP love twin bill!

[@breezecanada4038]

I love 💕 Tower of Power, the Memphis Horns, Earth, Wind & Fire horns, Chicago, Cameo and Brass Construction too, but no horns section in the history of the world even comes close to the Mighty JBs. That's because, with the leadership and direction of the Legendary James Brown, the JBs literally INVENTED Funk. Though Fred Wrsley, Maceo and Pee Wee were trained horn players, James Brown taught them how to forget about the horn parts of a song and instead, make the horns an intricate part of the groove. The JBs were not the accompaniment of the groove.... THEY WERE THE GROOVE ITSELF!

[@joeytoto4816]

I don't know about that. Tower of Power is pretty amazing man.

[@BassGod1225]

Bass Player poured a whole bottle of funky sauce on this.

[@tubenhans6190]

I stand in awe about Preston finding ways to play that 8 bar groove in endless nuances, giving the ILLUSION of stubborn repetition and a fireworks of ideas and development at the same time.

Fred, Pee wee, and Maceo graduated from James Brown University!!!! These cats enhanced James brown music so much. They are pioneers of what we call Funk today. Salute to the brothers. PS that brother on the bass is a bad ass man !!!!!

[@davep1103]

HE’S A BAD MAN !

[@1Ma9iN8tive]

One Bad Fother Mucker

[@breezecanada4038]

Brother, you are RIGHT ON THE MONEY with this comment. Fred Wesley came out of the Army expecting to go to New York and become a Jazz trombonist, but he was broke and needed work so a friend (Pee Wee Ellis) told him that James Brown was hiring. Fred auditioned for The Godfather and basically thought the man was insane. He said James Brown didn't understand the structure of music and Fred really wasn't happy about the idea of playing the kinda groove melodies that JB created, but he needed the work so he stayed. Well, the rest is history. James Brown proved to be a GENIUS and created a whole new formula for music (The One), where the band hit its hardest notes on the ONE count of the groove and now we have a new world order. But you already knew this. I know you knew this because your comment reflects the love and loyalty you have for James Brown and his Funky Discliples. There's only one thing I disagree with in your comment and I hope you will edit it for me: Since Pee Wee Ellis is the one of the most legendary sax players to ever live and was the man that introduced Fred Wesley to James Brown and Maceo, I think you will agree that we must honor his name by Capitalizing the "P" and the "W". Right? Brother, you are a real one. Stay Funky.

[@ramsfire]

I watched them do this one night back in 98'-99', in a club in Santa Clara,CA. at a brand new venue which was quite large but only had around 20 people in the whole place. Maceo and Fred played for 3 1/2 hours like they were in front of a full house. Lit the place UP! One of my fondest memories.

[@robertvanruyssevelt7159]

Pros

[@jacksonskog8801]

Man I watch this once a week at least. The bass work before the horns come in is some of the best I've ever heard. Such careful attention to note length, articulation, and space. About as good as it gets.

I saw him and this amazing group of musicians at the Hard Rock in Vegas and I was shocked at how few people were there. I was watching a legend amongst legends, playing the funkiest beautiful "happy music" and the place was almost empty. To his credit he didn't miss a beat or mail it in. One of the best performances I've ever seen

[@jean.pierrerenard5728]

S et zdddzzez s s#teeter f*Reed à Azarenka ddass did & & awesome

[@breezecanada4038]

OMG, you are sooo right. People have no real understanding of just how incredible and how original these musicians were. They pack auditoriums and stadiums for copycat acts like Beyonce' and Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift and Cardi B., yet overlook the very foundation of music when they fail to attend these amazing concerts. They have no idea that these were the musicians that honed their craft under the tuteledge of the Mighty James Brown and created the very essence of Funk. It's sad that today's music fans have no clue what"music" really is.

[@timothycarter6056]

Reason why the majority of his concerts are overseas. Americans don't appreciate his brilliance.

[@ajschroetlin2196]

I've seen him a bunch of times and it's always a great show. It's a shame we live in a world where everybody knows who Britney Spears is but nobody knows who Maceo Parker is.
