    I was at the Apollo in 73 and saw Mr. Brown for 10 shows, 2 shows a day! This is the first time I've seen concert footage of him singing 'Down N Out in NYC'.

My regret is that I should have gone to the midnight show!!!!! MISTER DYNAMITE TORE IT UP THAT NIGHT. I'LL NEVER FORGET IT. IT WAS APRIL 1973, and myself and two other Soul Brothers were with me.

    Its pretty deep to see Donald Warden, aka Al Mansour, doing the M.Cing in the intro! He was a local activist and author here in Oakland, CA, worked with James Brown on the "Don't Be a Drop Out" campaign and many other community initiatives in the late '60s. Recently deceased as well.

    Many people don't know that the "shoot" routine that he did for over 30 years when performing "Get On The Good Foot" live originated from the studio version of the song "I Got A Bag of My Own", shown here in the live version starting at 5:50.

      Michael Jackson carried on that same type of "freeze and pose" dance routine in his tours later on but before that the Jacksons were doing that as well later towards the Triumph era and Victory era when they still was the Jacksons.

    During the 1972 presidential election, James Brown openly proclaimed his support of Richard Nixon for reelection of the presidency over Democratic candidate George McGovern.[52] The decision led to a boycott of his performances and, according to Brown, cost him a big portion of his black audience.[53] As a result, Brown's record sales and concerts in the United States reached a lull in 1973 as he failed to land a number-one R&B single that year. Brown relied more on touring outside the United States where he continued to perform for sold-out crowds in cities such as London, Paris and Lausanne. That year, Brown also faced problems with the IRS for failure to pay back taxes, charging he hadn't paid upwards of $4.5 million, five years earlier, the IRS claimed he owed nearly $2 million.[54]

    'The studio version of I Wanna Be Around' is originally from the Smash LP 'Out Of Sight' but that LP was withdrawn when King Records filed an injunction from him that only let him play instrumentals on Smash. It was officially released on the 'Cold Sweat' album. Interestingly it's called 'I Want To Be Around' on the 'Cold Sweat' album and 'I Wanna Be Around' on the Smash album.'I Wanna Be Around' is the correct title.

      Ik this comment is 6 years old but I don’t think Zaire was the only “pristine” one. There’s a 2003 documentary of James and it shows like 2 short snippets of him from THIS show and it was in pristine High Definition. There’s also the 1974 ABC in concert performance that is in pristine condition but only one song from that first concert was officially released. All of these shows could be “remastered” and released but nobody is financing it. at least not that we know of at the moment.

  • @Neosoulgroovydude

    the out of sight lp on smash was withdrawn during the lawsuit so james gave smash instrumentals. they actually reissued the album with a track missing. one issue of it was a double lp that had both out of sight and jb plays jb today and yesterday. songs on the cold sweat album was dubbed from acetates of out of sight, thats prolly why it sounds a lil with treble. the songs on that1967 album were dated but was a good vehicle for cold sweat.i find his version of fever nice next to cold sweat.
