      Actually he was jealous of Bootsy's stage presence. He didn't love them enough to pay the wages they deserved (same for the rest of the band). James was a genius but the way he treated these guys was appalling.

      @@Wally-H If he was jealous then why did he let him do a whole bass solo and even let him be applauded? Hell, he even wanted him to be applauded recognizing he had talent too and deserved the spotlight just as much as him, that's why he shared it to him. He did the same for all of his musicians. He wasn't selfish. Why do you people love making things up? The reason James fired him and Catfish is because they constantly did acid/LSD. They were straight up addicts and it was clearly compromising the band when Bootsy started hallucinating in the middle of a concert. Despite James telling them to not do it while they're working and telling them he doesn't wanna catch them doing it he still did it. So in reality, Bootsy and Catfish disrespected his trust he had for them. Plus I understand why James was worried about the LSD, that stuff is bad for you in general and it will fuck up a concert if you do it before you go on stage. Even Bootsy admitted in multiple interviews and a documentary that he disrespected JB's trust. It hurts because he was a father to him, a huge father figure. But fathers gotta punish their kids too. It's just like how God didn't want Adam to eat the forbidden fruit and yet he still ate it.

      @Wally-H 9 місяців тому +2

      @@kool-808 Do your homework. This is not my opinion, it is known facts. If he wasn't selfish, why did he keep all the royalties from the songs he co-wrote with Bobby Byrd, who ended up suing him? This was a man who literally rescued James life, plucking him out of the state pen and giving him the chance to let his talent shine. James repaid him by not paying him his dues. Another example, in the 80's when hip hop groups started using the break from the funky drummer, James creamed off all the royalties. The drummer who played it, Clyde Stubblefield, got nothing. When Clyde became ill a few years back, he was so poor that musicians in his local city had to have a whip round to raise the money for his medical treatment. Clyde was often asked to play the 'funky drummer' beat and he refused to do it properly because he came to resent it due to James greed. If you watch videos of him playing in his later years you will find either he doesn't play it, or he plays elements of it but deliberately, not correctly. It was his most famous work but there isn't a single video of him playing it between the time he left the band and the day he passed. It's laughable to base your whole premise of James 'not being selfish' on the fact he allowed his band members to play solos. This was James making the most of their talent and he was happy to do that but in Bootsy's case, over time the press started talking about him a little too much and James wasn't so happy with that. Bootsy is a very tall man and he had a real presence on stage that somehow seemed to eclipse James himself and people talked about it. Brown didn't mind his band members being talented, or well liked, indeed he even allowed some of them like Marva Whitney and of course Bobby Byrd to make albums with their own names on the cover but he still owned all the rights to their music as well and of course, their fame must never eclipse that of the 'Godfather'. Apart from Maceo Parker, most of his musicians left his employ at one time or another because they weren't being paid what they deserved. He would also fine them for making mistakes on stage. I know what happened to the Collins brothers - I remember Bootsy once saying he was playing live on stage and he was so out of it that he thought the neck of his bass guitar had turned into a snake - that doesn't make me wrong in what I am saying, nor does it mean I 'make stuff up.' It is a plain fact that James Brown was a greedy man who didn't pay any royalties to the people around him who made a huge contribution towards producing this wonderful music, even when it was they rather than James who had created it. I'm a huge fan of James music, but I'm not going to sugar-coat what he did through some sort of blind fandom. James was wrong in what he did and all of his former band members say the same thing in interviews.

      James Brown: Pass the peas
      James Brown: Greedy Man
      James Brown: Funky President
      And so on.

  • @jasoneducator

    Very hard to overstate how important any live recordings of the "Bootsy Band" on youtube are. James has to give the musicians more freedom to solo than he would under the Pee Wee bands and he was probably more dictatorial when Maceo and the Macks returned once they couldn't make it big as solo artists. Maceo's fine as a solo now, and got the last laugh.

      @@AngelEyes_55 I have talked to young people for 8 years about this because I’ve found it to be both incredible and curious.
      Generally, young black teens and adults know ZERO about any music by black artists that was released more than about 3 to 5 years ago. Most cannot even recognize some of the biggest names in the music business in the last 50 years including: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Dione Warwick, Diana Ross, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Sly Stone, George Clinton, Jimi Hendrix, Donna Summers, Thelma Houston, Sade. Gladys Knight, etc. Several teens told me they had never heard of ARETHA FRANKLIN!
      And if you think that is pathetic, ask African Americans under 30 who the two sides were in the American Civil War. Go ahead, I dare you! I started doing this after I saw a video filmed on a college campus where the interviewer was asking this question. You will be stunned. I have yet to ask anyone under 30 who I work with, and some much older, who didn’t have any idea. Some had no idea there ever was a civil war in the United States. Some were in or had graduated from college.

    Anyone know where to get the full audio of this concert is? The album Love Power and Peace, that I've had for decades, is truncated on many songs. Most notably Ain't It Funky Now.

      There is a 3LP set, and a Japanese double CD with he full concert. Note that the audio only releases are not of the exact same performances as this footage. They played several nights at the Olympia in March 1971, on one night they had the French film crew, and the multitrack audio recording was a different night.

    This is still early on in the concert. You should see how wild things were a couple of hours later by which time JB had stripped to his undershirt, the crowd was going completely nuts, and the stage was lined with security heavies. Check it out. ua-cam.com/video/otYYynR4Fao/v-deo.html

    I just kinda noticed on this listen though, but Phelps solo is very much "Okay there's my 16 bars. . .Oh crap he wants me to keep going!" Followed by a flurry of licks and a very obvious "Okay James I've played what I've got!"
