About BrownMark: Born to the name Mark Brown in the Bronx, funk-rocker BrownMark is forever a son of Minneapolis. A working musician since high school, at age 19 Mark Brown was rehearsing with his band Phantasy when he was cold-called by Prince to audition for his band in the summer of 1981. Mark Brown joined the band that would soon be called The Revolution, and he was rechristened by Prince as BrownMark
Brown Mark is the truth we miss yall The Revaluation for ever
They need to go in tour, nationally....
The 5 people who disliked this are clearly devoid of Funk. This was pure Fire.
It was probably Andre Cymone and his family.......J/K.
I dont think no other musician but you is capable of getting such an authentic "Prince" sound. That can only speak to a level of musicianship and talent comparable to his
🙏🏾
@@BrownMark It's so true. You are the only one who truly encompasses the Minneapolis Sound outside of Prince.
Been subbed all this time and just getting this in my feed 4 years later?!? Bad azz bacon grease on the purple music Mark!! Thank you sir. The 12" of America was 20mins of this jam. Sounded like a rehearsal. Man I wish there was more of those. 6k+ tunes in the vault. Mark, tell the estate to release some that sh*t already, Damn!! I aint gonna live 4-ever!
Thank you Mark Brown for this wonderful jam.
I never tire of the song in all its incarnations. The grooves you guys spun together are incredible. They live on forever. By themselves.
Man, that was tight. America is a hidden gem and those deep, back door bass licks always fit....Pan-Jam-ic!!!

All the critics love you in New York. Brown Mark, you ARE the epitome of what Minneapolis funk is! You were such a huge influence on my bass playing back in the 80s. This performance sounded amazing!!!
If I can only get my bass to rumble like that , of all Prince bass players none can touch this man
Funk meter on 10000000!!!!!
Exactly
Real musicians, Real funky, Real music!!!😎🤘🏽
He had the best band the revolution was too funky especially with mark thumpin
The next IG live battle should be The Revolution vs. The Time!
The Revolution vs The Original 7 ... I thought they went head up on tour back in the day
that would be dope!
We all saw that Movie already.. LOL
Revolution vs NPG
How does that work, when he did it ALL!!!!
Besides playing tight as heck (as always), the man is clearly having fun. Thanks for making my head bob with a big smile on my face Brown Mark, stay awesome 😎🤘
Funk Incarnate ! That’s the truth... your skills are powerful my brother and the band embodies spirit of funk
Mark, this made me "put a smile on my face." Thank u sir!
IT IS A HONOR GETTING TO WATCH THIS MR. BROWNMARK. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE IN YOUR FACE BASS! IT IS AWESOME TO HEAR YOUR PARTS MORE UP FRONT AND THE OVERALL FEEL IS SO INTENSE ! PLEASE DO A CONCERT LIVE ONLINE AND CHARGE! I WOULD'VE PAID TO WATCH THIS ALONE! YOU ARE GREAT MAN AND THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING REAL MUSIC!
Next time try to get all the musicians on camera. They're jamming too good not to be seen...
The LinnLM1 drum track is such a killer!!! 😀
🎯💯
I agree I love the linn drum
That isht was funky! BrownMark you gotta come with the whole concert.
Dude, you killed it. Nice Warwick bass by the way, rock on and stay loose 😎
That "TURN AROUND" is too funky!! 🔥🔥🎶🎶🔥🔥
BrownMark u must get those cats together and take this on the road! This is the closest anyone has ever got to Prince! He would be honored to hear this!💜 (Perfect Production)
Just tooo funky. Your rumble bass sound added so much to the songs back in the day... your style will always be underrated and under appreciated to me!! Thanks for what you do and did!!
You are the founder of Minneapolis 8 Beat Funk Bass. Respect & THANXaLOT!
The jams on America are some of my favorites. I used to listen to the 21min version of America during my commute, just to zone out and keep me positive at the same time.
The Rugged FunKin with Brown Mark… Oooohhhh YEAH!!! 🤘😝
Thumpin and poppin bass, Brown Mark is helping keeping the Funk alive
💯!!
3:38 so funky the camera had a mini-stroke! 😖
LMFAO
@@seansherrod8725 the whole left side of my screen started drooping.
@@user-gi6ee8vj1y(LMFAO) DAMN IT, STOP!!!
The reason that you're cool is cuz you're from the old school and they know it. Too sweet.
You made this sound so much better imo than the album version which I didn't care for. Keep showing these millennials how it should be done old-school style! 💛❤
Mark , make that bass work like it owes u money. That's what u & prince meant when y'all said..." LET'S WORK" & that a..."GOOD FEELING".
Kept waiting for Prince to jump in , Damn we miss Prince. RIP my brother
Soul Clasps👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Now Everybody drop on-da-1

Brown Mark gets down with the family of this Funk 🎉
Dang!! This was dope!! The whole thing was fire!! The bass was poppin!! But that organ...ooooweee!! Grew up playing the Hammond in church..that organ sound is dope! Great job by all!
Nothing like some Funk to get rid of this migraine. Thx BrownMark for Keeping The Minneapolis Funk Alive.
GGOOOOOD LOOOORD!!!!! Late to the party ...... But better late than never!!!!! oh by the way if I ever run into the ones who gave the dislikes...........!!!!! ???!!!
How about a GoFundMe page for Brown Mark & Associates to get down 1 night? I’m ready. He is One of my favorite musicians that played with Prince, so I want to feel the Love & The Purple Rain coming from the Cosmos. The Purple One himself always raining supreme will be smiling down on us. R.I.P. Purple Majestic Prince👑
I wish I could give 31 likes! This is 21 times funky!
You can always tell Mark's bass playing. It's got that little added percussive sound to it.
OMD (Ohhh My Damn) The funkiest thing I've ever heard!!
Bro you sound like bootsy for real I met one of Stanley Clarke’s Bass students he told me he ask Stanley who was his favorite bass player and Stanley said bootsy!
Bro, I'm just seeing this video and hearing this Groove 101....Damn
I'm a bassist myself and have much respect for pocket and the groove, so with that being said....DAMNNNNNN 😅😂😂
Thank you BrownMark. I didn't know the bassline on America was so tight I would like to hear the bassline on ANOTHERLOVERWHOLEINYOURHEAD. I can't find a good version of it.
That double snare on the two lets you know it's a Prince tune. Bobby Z influence. Go Brown Mark, Go Brown Mark, Go Brown Mark! YEEAAAH!
Keep the music alive! Thanks Brown Mark and the the Crew! Putting some Do Do on America. So Stanky!!
That was funky ... IT's ILLEGAL !!!!!!! I saw the MotherShip in the Background
Swing Down Sweet Chariot,
Stop and Let Me Ride
I come back to this clip at least once a week and can't get enough of this.
The interaction between you guys is so hairraisingly good, it just cannot be bettered. Your sound is sex and medicine in one.
May you guys (continue to) have all the success you want.
Brown is "Nasty" without Prince! It's all good

All I can say is, it wasn’t easy.
Teacher... Why won't Jimmy pledge allegiance? 🇺🇸 😂 🎸
Say what you will but BROWNMARK is the NASTIEST...STANKEST....FUNKIEST Bassist Prince ever had.
Saw the Revolution in Providence RI, got to take pictures with the band and sadly lost everything on my phone. :-(
I'm ready 4 a concert !!!!!
Saw you play this twice with Prince. Purple Rain Tour and the Parade Tour. You threw down on both nights.
You still the best fam!! But zIn just love each an every one of y'all. You and Prince had that connection that's important as h***
This cat BROWNMARK is a nasty muthaplucka on that bass guitar! Just listening to and watching him throw down them greasy bass licks and grooves while he's dancing is all I funkin' need!
His vocals are pretty slick as well. A great guitar solo and overall band performance. Minneapolis naked funk is in full effect!
I love the linn drum clap
My stank face is now permanent. I'm goin have to walk around all week with dis stank face.
Thats some hair raising four to the flo funk right dere.
Not the German Warwick bass Brown Mark?!! #BangItOutMyBrother #SlappinDatBass
Prince kinda kept Brown Mark in the background . You can hear what he brings to these songs .
I could always hear him.
Turn your phone on the side dude...... Pro Bass playing with Prince, but amateur night on the phone, step it up.
I am born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Prince IS the reason I became a professional musician ! Just wanted to state that you, Brown Mark, are the BEST performance bass player EVER !!! Bootsy and Verdine White ain't got a damn thing on you. Keep the inspiration and Funk alive !
Verdine White is my favorite bass player of all time, and you aint lying!
Man I'm in the floor swear I'm Morris Day! Swanging and carrying on like a fool😂😂😂
Too Much Funk In That Skillet...Walk It On Out...
Brother I love that pointer finger technique,,that's the shit,,,and that little move ur doing
Yessir! Them Boys were JAMMIN'!!!! 🤘🏾
