    I love how just before Charles goes on and he's asked if he's ready to do his first song, he just quietly answer's "yes." And then, it's "WHEEEENNN YOUUU TTOUUUCCCHHH MMEEEE BABBBYYYY!" Just so much passion...and...eargasm.

    oh man... these guys are so great. I saw them twice in Portland. The first time, Charles Bradley was weeping onstage at the end of the show, he was so full of gratitude and emotion at the love in the room, and the success he finally found with music. Never seen a singer feel it so fully like that. And he had the room enraptured, it was like going to church. The man has a message of love to share, and he is putting it out there with so much true feeling and presence. I cannot recommend seeing them live enough... its such a beautiful thing!

      Benno Lyon got here to late to see him live but your testimony is so great that I think I have a pretty good idea of what it could be... Tank you. Ps: he was coming to Portugal for a concert but canceled because was very ill already..

    1. The band is incredible.
    2. Charles Bradley- Always giving it 110%, He sings with so much emotion, I'm surprised he doesn't just pass out after each song.

    I just want to give this man, Mr. Charles Bradley a big hug. His pain is so palpable, and his voice just carries such a vibrantly beautiful sound. Menahan Street band are the perfect musical and creative backing for that screaming eagle of soal to soar.

    OMG, Lord have mercy! What a voice! He sounds like those amazing legendary soul singers in the sixties! This is what music is all about; pure, honest, soul and straight from the heart! He `s had a hard life, but still he kept going and believe "A change is gonna come". Your brother Joseph is looking down from heaven! Mr. Charles Bradley stay as sweet as you are and may the Lord bless you, watch over you and keep you and your family safe!!!! May the blessing of light be upon you!!!!

    love seeing the guys in this band play with so many outfits, Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings, Antibalas, Amy Winehouse, Budos Band - so many artists use these guys and they always tear it up.

    • @Kredeidi
      @Kredeidi 8 років тому +22

      +bsedhs he actually tries to communicate with others. And he responds to them in his playing. Most musicians focus on their own performance.

    Immediately I looked for videos of Charles Bradley on UA-cam and heard all the day so many songs of this great singer. Congratulations Mr Bradley. I noticed that you sang in "Virada Cultural" in Sao Paulo, unfortunatelly I have not saw you. I will expect your returno to Brazil. I honestly suggest: Play and sing at "Bourbon Street Music Club", the best place of soul, R&B, and Black Music of São Paulo (maybe of Brazil). Regards, Neto (an lover of good world music).

He's not only an amazingly talented vocalist but a truly kind and wonderful human to boot! At one point he invited a couple up on stage so the man could propose! All while Charles sang of love and devotion... One of the most incredible nights I have ever had!
