Absolutely CLASSIC ‘Soul Power’! Great memories! Bobby & James with the band!!!! Shock-a-lock, many, many of us grew up on James and his great musicians. Everyone there did a great job! It’s a great part of ‘Soul History!” Shock-a-lock
The Great Bobby Byrd was an awesome talent. Byrd and Brown were like fuel and fire. If you notice Byrd kept a constant eye on Brown while performing, and you had to too. Brown was a genius, but he did his own thing the way he wanted and Byrd knew it. God bless them both.
When James Brown and Bobby Byrd start chanting "Soul Power" with pump fists with the drum breaks. OMG. That was the like the birth of HIP HOP right there!
GOD Father of SOUL and Rap........ Brother got Ta Rap ! Seen James Brown at 12 Years old in Topeka, KS, then at 16 seen him in Kansas City, MO , Then seen him at 22 in Chicago , Then at 49 in Reno, Nevada....... Been digging James Brown since 1956 !!!! Always gets your ass off the chair and on the Dance Floor! ...... Seen Bootsy and the P-Funk Group three times ! Long Live the Funk Baby !
Crowd is just loving every second of this. Live performances didn't always work out well in this era, but The Godfather of soul just knocked this out of the park.
Everything about this is just so awesome. Tight drums, tight bass, tight horns, and everything just rhythmically fits together so well! Byrd is awesome, James is, and the dancer is not too bad to look at either :P
We all know the moves and the change in music JAMES BROWN did (the most credible musician if you ask me) but have you ever recon the force and the sheer soul the guy left to him gave? BOBBY BYRD is the forgotten hero in the JAMES BROWN universe and one of the funkiest man EVER! Just check out the sublime moves that James was known to own but BOBBY just oozes more of, this man was for me the "Funkiest man alive"! Several singles and one live album at KING with the credits of this song proves me right if you take time to dig for BOBBY BYRD!
Fun fact: In 1971 Dj John Brown would spin this record at the “Plaza Tunnel” in the basement of the Plaza Hotel on 161st & Grand Concourse. The Bronx street gang the “Black Spades” would overrun the dance floor & chant “Spade Power!” when JB & BB would chant Soul Power over the drum break.. 👆🏽
The LAST TWO FAMOUS FLAMES: BROWN & BYRD . in mid 1966, Famous Flame LLOYD STALLWORTH quit the group...leaving only the "Three B's" , BROWN, BYRD, and BENNETT. Then, in 1968, The other Flames, Bobby Byrd & Bobby Bennett also quit, effectively ENDING The Famous Flames, leaving Brown as a solo act. BUT, about 18 months later, James' friend, Bobby Byrd returned, at James' request. This began a period where the two remaining Famous Flames began singing DUETS on several hit singles , such as "SEX MACHINE", "MAKE IT FUNKY", "SOUL POWER", "TALKING LOUD AND SAYING NOTHING", and "GET ON UP, GET INTO IT, GET INVOLVED" among other hits.
Amen to that it was Bobby Byrd who discovered James Brown that's the real preacher of soul music rest in peace Mr Byrd a lot of people don't want to talk about that but that band that James called the JB's was originally Mr Soul Man Bobby Byrds band I think they was called the Famous Flames if I'm not mistaken maybe somebody could confirm that because I my memory is horrible right now laughing
You my funky friend for life got the fact straight. BOBBY BYRD was an extraordinary soul man with an exceptional "funky" talent that "found" a man and let him into his gospel group called THE FLAMES that later became THE FAMOUS FLAME. From this time and after JAMES BROWN took over the show but people like you and me know our rhythm-based music and their heritage so...BOBBY BYRD for president!
True. The FAMOUS FLAMES were a SINGING GROUP. They were not musicians or JB Bandmembers. The members were : BOBBY BYRD (Group Founder), BOBBY BENNETT, LLOYD STALLWORTH, and JAMES BROWN. (Yes, James Brown was a Famous Flame TOO). Another occasional member was JOHNNY TERRY, but he eventually left the act , but continued as songwriter and occasional performer with the group. facebook.com/thefamousflamesbysandibennett/ ua-cam.com/video/iJXITLhrzJw/v-deo.html
QueenAnita Soul - The FAMOUS FLAMES were a SINGING GROUP. And you're right , they were formed by BOBBY BYRD (not James Brown) ....long BEFORE that BAND was even formed. In FACT, it was BOBBY BYRD who even discovered JAMES BROWN himself !! The problem is that later fans , who have NEVER SEEN JAMES BROWN & THE FAMOUS FLAMES as a GROUP, think till this very day, that The Flames were musicians and JB Bandmembers . But , this is INCORRECT .The Band members were part of a SEPARATE ENTITY known as the James Brown Band. This band BROKE UP in 1970...for the same reason why The Famous FLAMES Vocal Group, (Bobby Byrd, Bobby Bennett, and Lloyd Stallworth) broke up in 1968....MONEY. This left Brown WITHOUT a band (The James Brown Orchestra)...and without a singing group (The Famous Flames)...and shows he was contracted to do. Once again, just like he did in 1958, BOBBY BYRD returned...and SAVED Brown's career....by discovering a replacement band (The J.B.'s)... Just as he had discovered The Famous Flames singing group (and Brown HIMSELF) , MANY YEARS BEFORE. Click on THIS LINK, and see James tell David Letterman just WHO The Famous FLAMES really were. Hint: They WERE NOT Maceo, Fred Wesley, Bootsy Collins, and company . ua-cam.com/video/iJXITLhrzJw/v-deo.html The James Brown Band were NOT The Famous Flames. They actually BACKED James Brown & The Famous Flames. See James Brown & The Famous Flames HERE: 1) ua-cam.com/video/WMqM4lZGiK0/v-deo.html 2) ua-cam.com/video/5oR3AHkl9EI/v-deo.html
A more interesting question, a question that perhaps you’ve never considered before, is what pain do you want in your life? What are you willing to struggle for? Because that seems to be a greater determinant of how our lives turn out.
*THE LAST TWO FAMOUS FLAMES* : *JAMES BROWN & BOBBY BYRD*. The other Famous Flames , BOBBY BENNETT, LLOYD STALLWORTH, and JOHNNY TERRY , had left in 1964 (Terry) , 1966 (Stallworth) and 1968 (Byrd and Bennett) , effectively spelling the END of The Famous Flames...leaving Brown as a "solo" act. But BOBBY BYRD (the Flames' founder) , returned 18 months later...and this began a period where the last two Flames began to record a series of DUET hits together....
After the original members of the singing group THE FAMOUS FLAMES left the group, ( Johnny Terry, "Baby Lloyd" Stallworth, and Bobby Bennett ) the last two remaining members , JAMES BROWN & BOBBY BYRD began to record songs as a DUO (backed by the JB's Band) .Some of their hits were: SEX MACHINE, MAKE IT FUNKY, and these two: SOUL POWER and GET INVOLVED. To see JAMES and BOBBY with The Famous Flames when the group was still together, click on THIS LINK: ua-cam.com/video/grbQv_U4sXI/v-deo.html

I noticed that. Byrd didn't wanna see a flash of 5 fingers if he missed a step.

The crowd in Rome didn't know how to react, clap along, etc....so they just gave him a 2-minute standing ovation.
Who is the drummer in the right side?
@@thefunkiestfunk2220 - Jabo Starks
That Bass and Drums are perfect. Bobby Byrd Rest In Peace
Bootsy Collins on bass.
@@bentnosewp Bootsy is too funky for his own good!!! 🎸 🎸 🎶 🎶
Brown's drummers ALWAYS had a tight pocket!
When the hype man worked just as hard as the headliner. Lol!
When James went in to Get involved the whole audience turned up
This is onecof best songs 🎵 James made. That's why He's Godfather of soul.😉💃Soul. We need right now✊
I agree. Of all the James Brown songs, this is my favorite! Bootsy Collins is killing that bass!!
James Brown is without doubt the goat of soul and hip hop!!!
Is there anyone better than this man? I don't think that there is. RIP Mr. Brown
I called Bobby Byrd the preacher of soul music and Otis Redding The Soul Man preacher cuz when they sing they sound like they preaching with soul
QueenAnita Soul yes indeed
Michael Jackson.

James Brown fez parte da minha infância desde os 11 anos. Desde que eu ouvi pela primeira vez não consegui mais não escutá-lo. ☺
HE TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DAMN FUNKY
What I love about this era is the collaboration between artists. I mean James Brown and P-Funk are bridged by the mighty Bootsy.
It really wasn't a collabo ,,,,Bootsy work for James Brown for 5 years before he broke out on his own......
4:30 truly amazing!
Horney Horns on point!
Pure Soul POWER!
Still dope as F

QueenAnita Soul Word! It's a real shame that Mr. Byrd don't get the respect and memory he deserves in funk canon...
That's not true. The Famous flames were a 3 members group. The JB'S were strictly James Brown band.
