    The Godfather just gave you a different version of everything, nothing was never the same. That's why he was so great and different from other entertainers. He put his stuff together right there on the stage. That's why all the band members had to keep their eyes on him. Everything was did off of him there was no music wrote. There were times the words in his songs were different. Wasn't because he forgot them he just never gave you the same old thang over and over. The man was a genius on and off the stage. Caught every missed note and beat that wasn't made. Probably why his bands were always so good.

    Obviously this is a classic but what’s disappointing about it is the drums are way too far back in the mix. The version on “live in Dallas” 1968 smokes this version. Faster, harder, and the drums are so much better. I actually prefer “let yourself go” on live at the Apollo volume two, the song that preceded this, more than I do “there was a time”.

      It actually sounds killer with some good headphones on. Hard to believe this band was cranking out this much noise way back in 1967. James brown was a pioneer and was blessed with a fantastic band. Hes right up there with Elvis period

      @@corykassabian8839 James Brown was way more influential than Elvis. Elvis was more commercially popular, but he didn’t create any actual genre. He followed in the footsteps of Little Richard and Chuck Berry and others. James Brown actually created a genre basically singlehandedly created funk.

James Burton said they had to drag James Brown out of Elvis's viewing cause he spent all day in there grieving.. John Lennon said before Elvis there was no one and Keith Richards said he wanted to be Scotty Moore. But I love James Brown just as much hes great
