    He put a slight pause on the performance because he wanted the audience to be into it! Such an amazing showman. I definitely would have gotten on up! Thanks again for posting such wonderful videos, MS! It's a mystery you don't yet have 100K+ subscribers, but that number is building and I love to see that! Take care!

    The man as unreal, what a showman, a friend of mine in HS had to see him but back then he only played in the hood . He was at the Capitol theater in Chicago but my friend had to see him so he took the bus into the hood , got tickets and went in. Told me he was the only white personality in the theater but what a show ! No regrets he went. Loves James Brown to this day !

    Freaking WOW! I really apprecaite what is happening. So many great things have been released and so many to come. Originally I thought it was someone that had a DVD collection or access to old VHS tapes and was creating a channel as a fan. So happy that it is the real thing and so many great experiences can now be re-experience by a new generation. I have already seen things i did NOT know existed. Thank you for doing this. I was a huge fan as a kid. Side note, I talked to someone in the band LeRoux and they were able to give me first hand accounts of what it was like back in the day. I hope you have them in your vault.
