I just want to know how these people in the audience can just stand there, with James Fn Brown and his group working their asses off. I wouldn’t take that mess
Billy don't take no mess?
Since 1971 I saw James Brown about 100 times in concert he’s my all-time favorite singer. And when I would go to his concert my eyes would be on the stage the whole time I didn’t go there to move around too much and dance and miss any of the action.
Because for those Midnight Special tapings, they were there for HOURS and saw a lot more music than the 90 minutes we saw on TV. I know this episode also featured the O’Jays. They surely could throw down, too. As you can see, it was also standing room only, or you sat on the floor. By the time James played these two songs (he did his whole set, by the way), I’m sure the audience was FRIED!!
Watch James Brown's set at ABC's "In Concert" from the same year. The audience was LIT!!!! And it was a much funkier set.
Also, I hate to admit it, but I think that crowd was there to see The O'Jays more than JB.
James Brown's stage for his set was on one end of the room, and The O'Jays' stage was on the opposite end, technically the front of the house. JB was basically playing to the back of the room for The O'Jays' crowd, possibly.
Papa in the pocket. This whole album is absolutely insane.
I’m in tears 🥺watching this. When music had soul. Todays music is for zombies
Insanely rare to see some new James Brown footage.
Amen!
JB and the coldest, tightest band layin down the SERIOUS FUNK!✊
Like all of James’ live performances, it’s amazing.
This is soooo good! GFOS!
RIGHT ON MIDNIGHT SPECIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AWESOME POST! LOVE FRESH, NEW JB MATERIAL! Thanks 🙏🏾!
Maybe you should write another book 😄
Yall hittin' them archives!! I thought I've seen all of the JB footage!! First the Johnny Carson appearance..now this!! I kinda figured there was a whole episode🔥💪
Whoooahh!!! Now we're talkin'! First time EVER seeing this!!!
How clear the audio is and how there's a echo when James Brown sings and the Instrumentals, this sounds like the Studio version of it which is amazing
Pure fire. Incredible tightness and power, JB expected perfection and pushed everyone hard. You can tell that in a regular concert, JB and his band would take these tracks far further. He's holding back here.
Smokin' hot 🔥
I saw the one and only James twice and his band was amazing .
GOOD GOD!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Love the audience dancing along with & the backup dancers are dynamic!
A BIG ole’ PARTY, oh Yeah!! 💃
I've got a Midnight Special cd but its great to have all this too!
The dancers are great.
Funkiest on the planet ❤❤❤
Phenomenal!
Pioneer.
🔥🔥🔥
Sure would be nice to binge watch these shows like the other streaming shows.Releasing these shows in real time is excruciatingly slow. Hope they change the release schedule sometime. 8 years is too long to wait around for these shows.On demand would be best.
Did Mr. Brown just do a full hour by himself on this show?? So far I’ve seen from this episode: “Payback”, “My Thang”, “Papa/No Mess”, “Hell” “Cold Sweat/I can’t stand it/Papa’s Bag”. All that’s left is the ballads and u have a full concert.
He also did a full kilo by himself on this show…….❄️❄️❄️

A kilogram of cocaine.
@@benjaminperez7328If you don't have something positive or informative to say, just shut up. What a fool!
@@benjaminperez7328 you’re ignorant. Mr. Brown was not doing any drugs in 1974. For whatever reason he started to get into some drugs in about 1985.
@@PaulDA2000Don’t bother responding to assholes who don’t know shit. 👊🏾 How are you, man? What happened to our friend, Ike Dyson?
Real instruments played by professionals.
Today a lot of 🤡 and computers....
Most "musicians" these days couldn't keep up with James Brown without a laptop and autotune.
@@joequeer3385That's so true. James was an incredible performer! 👍🇫🇷
最高にかっこいい
"My Thang" should be in the title of this video, as well, although it was just a jam/vamp intro before "Papa Don't Take No Mess."
What is the name of the lightskin sister that is dancing in the green outfit? She gets all the way down with the funky sound...
might be Lola Love?
@@UserNameTaken007 Not Lola Love the other one. The redbone dancer.
Dynamite
This species lets itself be ruled by HELL !
Peavey backline
That bass amp has got to weigh a ton. A roadies nightmare.
From 3:35 to 3:42 the camera man missed all of his dancing. Off with his head!
Blame the director. Camera operators take their direction from them. They have missed multiple moments of JB dancing over the years.
@@modernretroradio993 Yep.
The bass guitar played by Fred Thomas is the same one that Bootsy Collins played 4 years earlier. The bass belonged to James, not Bootsy. However, it was purchased at Bootsy's request because he did not have a professional instrument.
Hell was on those poor drummers, The Godfather was supposedly a tyrant on them for clams and not playing perfectly. But they brought that stanky FUNK we all love so much!!!! Been called a funky drummer myself, gives me goosebumps when I get that recognition...thank you JB!!

It sounds amazing, but the band is clearly going through the motions. They're all stone-faced and there isn't even a hint of passion. I have to wonder what was going on then to cause their morale to be so low.
They're focused and in zone 💥💥💥
@@kennethspencer4324 Those don't strike me as "in the zone" looks. Those look more like "joylessly fulfilling the terms of a professional contract" faces to me.
@@mifune9634they were probably rehearsing the whole entire day
@@uncleboyd5023 The dancers and background vocalists seem to be enjoying themselves, and I'm assuming they rehearsed too. It's only the band who look all stone faced.
