I love the quicker pace, live version of "Jody's Got Your Girl and Gone" better:

I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince.

^^I have Johnnie's live album and that song is over 9 minutes. Most of the performances in Wattstax were edited to fit in the movie.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

The applause at the beginning gives the impression this may be live, but it sounds exactly like the version on his "Taylored In Silk" LP. Or was that version the same just minus the applause in the intro?

In any event: Love this song.

It is and there's no applause on it. I guess the person who made the video added that.

Ah, I see. That makes sense. Someone was being creative, lol.

...and I only learned that about a month after I learned Bootsy was on there, lol. No wonder that song was a hit! It would definitely be in my top 100 favorite songs of all time.
