James Brown Live In Boston 1968

James Brown Live In Boston 1968;

I had a chance to check out this performance recently and I must say I was surprised that his dancing was not all that spectacular. The band is incredible and the audience is so hyped that start trying to take over the stage but has anyone else on this board every had a chance to check out James live back in the day?

I just wanted to compare to this performance.

Where'd you find this??? I've been looking for stuff like this for the longest!!! No disrespect to the man but I don't really care for the "Vegas style" act he's done over the last twenty years or so.

You know I guess I just expected more dancing than what he is doing. This performance dance wise is not much compared to what he doing in the "When We Were Kings" documentary but, I am going to look around for more James stuff from the sixties.

A copy of his performance from...



...The T.A.M.I. Show might be worth having.


Where James Brown showed The Rolling Stones what the deal is...

"Mick Jagger jiggled across the stage doing his lame funky chicken after James Brown's incredible camel-walking, proto-moon-walking, athletically daring performance."
~Nelson George


And Keith Richards has reportedly said that following James Brown was probably one of the biggest mistakes of their career.
