James Brown was Not only a father of soul Music. He was Far more than people can imagine. He was Unique in every way possible. He gave more to charity than any Other star. Elvis was also very generous (but with his friends mostly) James Brown came from a really poor background. he had Nothing accept his God given talent he was born with. you all should do a bit of a research on this Great Human being. No one can Ever replace James Brown. He was One of a Kind. May he rest in Peace under God's wings.
That Band knew they were playing for a God. They didn’t even get payed sometimes. When you get to perform with a God every night ur willing to sacrifice. The experience alone is worth everything.
@@markpitre3514 James brown is not god. How could you even say something like that. Also god is great but you can’t live your life on god alone , he is here to guide you but he will not hand money to you
Great interview. After seeing "Get on Up" I got more interested in James Brown. He was a very cool man with a lot of wisdom. Never thought I'd hear myself say that!
Thank you Mr. James Brown for all that you have done, more than many people even know. You were their for us 1000 %. I grew up on your music as many of us have. Many have turned their lives around threw your music. Thanks to the Mike Douglas for having possibly the only true interview of James Brown. This is from the soul. Thank you.
There will never be the likes of this great singer again. All the male artists sound overproduced and the same these days and with no class or style. Here today gone tomorrow, but James Brown will live on and on through the ages
just saw the movie "get on up" last night and i watched this to see how honestly the movie portrayed him. so far, decent with the exception of his relationship with his father. seems he might have been cordial here for the sake of "keeping one's own business out of the public eye.."
saw the advance....Bozeman looked WAY TOO Sly Stone circa 65/66! Jagger needs to stick with the dumb shit he and Richard been doing for the last 50 years......Shattered does it matter.....
I regret never seen a live concert I regrete I never met him...... I love his music introduced to me by a play sister when I only knew of Elvis Presley..and Rickey Nelson. God give each of us gifts of talents
Mr. James Brown was the music foundation for many performers that we know of today. HIS Thoughts about being black in America...I wish he had put his thoughts on paper as well spoke from a platform to the races. He was of simple words but they thought process and how he articulated his words were powerful. His love of music...his concern for his people..in my opinion it was season with a touch of being a pioneer activist .asking for change in this country by leaving the door of opportunity open...We can get it ourselves.... When James Brown went to Heaven The door was OPEN! .
In 1979 I was stationed in Augusta Georgia as a soldier. The Augusta Open golf tournament in Augusta Georgia black Americans were not allowed to play in it. Early on I questioned as a black American Soldier why am I going over to other countries and fighting someone else when my fight is here in America. It took all the way to Tiger Woods for black Americans to be allowed to play golf at Augusta open in the hometown of James Brown Agusta Ga.. And even after Tiger Woods women were not allowed to play at the Augusta open. White people make me sick with their systemic racism.
Notice the phraseology in his delivery. How many rock stars, r&b performers prior to Brown used that type of delivery as far as lyrically speaking while performing? Nobody!! After J. Brown everybody!!...The impact and influence and legacy of J.B on popular music
Ps excuse that last comment 🤭back to the statement that I was commenting on,Black people will stop fighting the system when the system stops fighting us🤔❤️🖤💚we don't want to protest ALL the time but we have to many times, but we will fight and live our best lives at the same time because we have to❤️🖤💚✊🏾❤️🖤💚😘
The pride that I feel I can't explain because my great grand father was a member of the Brown family but my grand father became a Levendale because unmarried couples bared their mother's name
funny thing is the soul brotha #1 james brown never really had a relationship with his dad wen he was younger so that question was hard for him cuz his mom and his daddy left
His father didn’t leave he went into the army ... and came home and started a relationship with his son ... his mother left and came back for a hundred dollars a hundred fuckin dollars like come on he took care of her but never spoke to her again and every time he saw her he called her woman instead of mama she’s trifling asl for that😒😒😒
Say it loud "AM BLACK AND I'M PROUD" Those racist year going on and this great live performer making white people dance... Black power ladies and gentlemen!
JB's band was TIGHT as hell. They sure don't make'em like that anymore as in LIVE and this tight! Excellent interview and JB sets a lot of records straight, and from the heart. RIP JB!
Ps excuse my last comment,🤭🥰l was doing two things at once and my text came to the wrong one.But what l was saying is that black people don't want to protest and speak out ALL the time but we have to❤️🖤💚✊🏾❤️🖤💚we have to until this unjust system and the people behind it treats us(black people) better.We are prepared to protest,fight this unjust system and live our best lives all at the same time by any means necessary I'm just saying 🤔🥰❤️🖤💚✊🏾❤️🖤💚
I guess, we are Human Beings first….. not man or woman, nor black or white, ……we all are Human Beings There is only one race : humanity there only one religion : Love
Boy i remember THE JAMES BROWN ON THIS SHOW HE KILLED IT I WAS HOLLERING, AND DANCING THROUGH THIS HOLD SHOW AT HOME.. I WAS ONLY 15YRS OLD.. AND THE STRANGEST THING HAPPEN WHEN I WAS 17YRS OLD MY BROTHERS WAS REALLY IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY I WAS IN THEY BAND SINGING, AND THEY DANCER, AND MY 2 SISTER'S THEY FOUND OUT JB NEEDED A DANCER SO THEY TOOK ME TO TRY OUT, AND THEY TOLD THEM THEY WAS MY MANGERS AND I WAS 18YRS OLD.. AND GUESS WHAT I KILLED THAT DANCE🔥🙌😂 TRY OUT I WON TO BE ONE OF JAMES BROWN DANCERS. BUT WHEN WE GOT HOME WE TOLD OUR DAD.. AND MY BROTHERS GOT IN BIG TROUBLE WITH OUR DAD.. I CAN REMEMBER HIM LIKE YESTERDAY SAY I YOU CANT BE WITH NO JB DANCER AT 17YR OLD. 😩😩 I LOVE JB TOO MUCH MY FATHER SAID TO HAVE TO KILL HIM OVER MY YOUNG BEAUTIFUL BABY GIRL.. I WAS SO SAD I WISH I WAS 18YRS OLD SO I COULD OF BEEN JB DANCER..THE SAD PART.. BUT THE GOOD PART WAS MEETING HIM..HE HAD A POWERFUL BEAUTIFUL SPIRIT, AND SOUL..I DON'T SHARE MUCH OF MY LIFE IM I USELY DON'T SHARE SO OF MY LIFE MOST TOUHING MEMORIES ONLINE BUT I DID I CANT EVEN BELIEVEI DID 😆🤣.
James took blues, and turned it on its head. The arrangements that he created and executed were so brilliant and influential, that even now, artists emulate his vision. Seeing him in this format really sheds a light on the soul of the man. Simple, talented, passionate, intelligent and honest. This was such an inspiring post. What an absolutely wonderful window into the godfather of soul! Thanks James.
Michael Jackson learned a thing or two from him as he was his mentor. Papa Brown was his biggest influence in showmanship and singing since he was a child.
A pivotal, key interview. A bit irritating to see the way the Susskinds were being somewhat patronizing to JB, but the man dealt with everything with grace and intelligence. A moment in history. JB was the man.
SOUL BROTHA #1 Mr. James Brown. You paid the cost to be the boss. #legendary. Chadwick Boseman MUST win the Sag, Golden Globe and Oscar for his outstanding portrayal of Mr.James Brown!!!
You know if u really know james brown and by letting his parents back in his life after what they did... Well if that aint forgivess I dont know what is !
Not only is the music of previous decades so much different, but the contrast between personalities and the way that artists presented and expressed themselves in the past was vastly more interesting. There seems to be a connection between creativity and social behavior. And I think that it's evident when you look at the musical geniuses of the 60's and 70's who offered insightful, genuine anecdotes and the pop stars of today who open their mouths and say nothing.
His Dad looked very good as well...This could have been added to the movie...because you left there not knowing If his Dad ever came back in his life and there he is on the Mike Douglass show
This man is Brilliant, You don't have to have a degree to have knowledge Common sense and knowing who you are and fighting for what you want . Very ahead of his time and very unrated as the greatest entertainer. !!! He did it for the people not for money his people R.I.P ❤❤
It is the power of being an American. Hard work gets you where you want to go. JB knew this and did not let anything or anyone hold him back. He believed in himself and didn't make excuses. What a great American.
+Vilis So True Vilis. So many sold millions of albums and 45's and worked nonstop but were paid nothing. It wasnt like today. Autotune, no talent, no singers or musicians, forgetable bs and they have millions. Guess the less talent you have the more money you make.
I like this Video because of the interview. I don't like the mess they made of the use of graphics. James Brown does his own graphics with energy and movement.
All the video-effects during the performace footage is annoying!! Hate the way they used to do this. Just put a camera on JB and let him do his thang! No need for effects!
I just love James Brown's hairstyle in this clip! CLASSIC CUT!
Yes sharp hair cut,!!!!!
Agreed legendary especially when he was on the pedestal into the array of mics talkin bout owning WidW
Looks like Wayne Brady

absolutely fuckin amazing, him and his band untouchable,clean, raw, organic, soul
That Band knew they were playing for a God. They didn’t even get payed sometimes. When you get to perform with a God every night ur willing to sacrifice. The experience alone is worth everything.
Lots of hip hop songs actually use a beat from his song Funky Drummer. Great Stuff.
@@markpitre3514 James brown is not god. How could you even say something like that. Also god is great but you can’t live your life on god alone , he is here to guide you but he will not hand money to you
Great interview. After seeing "Get on Up" I got more interested in James Brown. He was a very cool man with a lot of wisdom. Never thought I'd hear myself say that!
He had the old school v-neck sweater on. That sweater was big, back in the day.
Amazing not only to watch and listen to james brown, but the references to the culture at the time are just crazy.
Oh Wow he is deep. I really never ever listen to a serious interview before. After watching his movie it was so much he had been through.
This is the best James Brown show I have ever seen! I want to see more! Thanks for posting this.
I see from this video that james and his father had a better relationship than what the movie protrays.
Właśnie po raz pierwszy poznałam znakomite utwory krążka wydanego w 1969 roku... BRAWO

I saw all my hero’s on the MIke Douglas show as a child, I remember those programs to this day, and those tv graphics were cutting edge:)
Great guy. Gotta love a musician who stands up for what’s right and doesn’t lick people to sell more records!
THANKS FOR POSTING, RARE FOOTAGE
That was REAL live TV performing at its best, unlike today's canned backtrack bullshit.
There will never be the likes of this great singer again. All the male artists sound overproduced and the same these days and with no class or style. Here today gone tomorrow, but James Brown will live on and on through the ages
This man was a true legend as well as a Dynamic entertainer.
Wow James Brown is so very talented.
His music was a big part of my growing up, and now that i see this, I have even more respect for the man.
so many more great ones to come over the next several years. I was about 9 at this time and was just getting into JB.
J.B. was in top form. Soul Brother Number 1.
just saw the movie "get on up" last night and i watched this to see how honestly the movie portrayed him. so far, decent with the exception of his relationship with his father. seems he might have been cordial here for the sake of "keeping one's own business out of the public eye.."

Jagger needs to stick with the dumb shit he and Richard been doing for the last 50 years......Shattered does it matter.....
The band is so tight it's absurd. So funky. And James... I mean cmon.. the best.
I AM A MAN FIRST
Well said
Rest in Heaven
Thank you so very much.
I regret never seen a live concert
I regrete I never met him......
I love his music introduced to me by a play sister when I only knew of Elvis Presley..and Rickey Nelson.

Mr Brown at his best ✌🏿🎼
LEGENDARY!!!
a real man
Never heard James so articulate and with a short haircut. He's #1 along with Little Richard.
OMG he looked like his dad.
He's so real. People these days are completely fabricated on these types of shows.
Celebs are a brand so they have people telling them how to act to not alienate fans.
that's some cool video editing, for the stixties (when he sings)
beginning of the 70's and psychedelics movement / design, you can feel it in the segments :)
very nice!
The Godfather nuff said!!
The JB's were in a league of their own, PERIOD!
Mother of God! What a piece of history
The Greatest RIP
James Brown a great performer.
He looks like his father.
When most black people had class and not swag.
Remember James Brown's great song "Papa Don't Take No Mess"? Well there he is, papa, at 05:37. Hallelujah.
tight!!!
James brown said some wonderful things about his friend elvis presley. Names said elvis was the king of the world but james was number one soul
In 1979 I was stationed in Augusta Georgia as a soldier. The Augusta Open golf tournament in Augusta Georgia black Americans were not allowed to play in it.

Jesus Christ how cool is that.
VH1 existed in 1969?
I'm in love 😘😘😘

He was really hot in his prime..
It's a good thing i don't have epilepsy! 🤪 Go on James wid yo bad self 👌🏽
nobody like him. ever. true maverick. requiem in pacem, dimitri.
We used to think it was cool with all of these effects. Now I look at this and wish they never applied that here.
Love James.
Say it loud "AM BLACK AND I'M PROUD" Those racist year going on and this great live performer making white people dance... Black power ladies and gentlemen!
i got you i feel good
I love @9:59-@10:45 Oh the silence. LOL
No Process and only one drummer?!!?
True patriot. ...R.I.P. James Brown
A soon as he said "Jews", they signaled Mike to get him off. I bet they were sweating bullets.
"By God, we paid a lot of fucking money for this chroma key system, and we're gonna use it!"
who said that?

@Ron Malcom So did Prince.

A light that is now recognized in a fantastic film ' Get On Up' .. Way ahead of his time. A voice for peace for all men. A gift of God' s Soul
christymichael So talented!
puppetken natural born talent
I had a house party in the early 1970s and people came after watching James Brown on TV.
No If's-But's Or Man be's about it James Brown is the Hardest working

RIP Chad. I’m going to watch it right now from this comment. Thank you!
This man was remixing music back in 1969 wow JB was so futuristic!!! This man came to earth with a mission I love him and the movie was great!
Brown looks great here and with the type of born wisdom that belies his 7th grade ed. One of those broken mold kind of men.
You know if u really know james brown and by letting his parents back in his life after what they did... Well if that aint forgivess I dont know what is !
Band as tight as a size 4 dress on a size 12 woman,
It better be that way or you’re getting docked for every mistake.
That alone with make you play like I’m paying for you to be that way..

Holy crap, first time I'm seeing James Brown's father!
Maurice Kim father??? what do you mean
A bad bitch did you even watch the video? His dad is there
Good job Mr. James Brown, what a wonderful man.

"Cold Sweat" is hard-core 60's there, and that band is tight as fuck.
love this man rip soul sexy man

"but TODAY I OWN that radio station, that's black power"
what you doing on here 2yrs ago?
It is the power of being an American. Hard work gets you where you want to go. JB knew this and did not let anything or anyone hold him back. He believed in himself and didn't make excuses. What a great American.
Black people sang their way out of poverty..Lol and they became millionaires as a result of it! That's what i call work.

They tried to put JB on the hot seat. He handled himself very well. Stay Black.
Damn! They need to rebroadcast JBs speech! JB was and will always be our KING!
No one sounded like James Brown. Sure there were many great soul funk bands.. but all looked at JB and were blown away. Truly a unique musician.
I like this Video because of the interview. I don't like the mess they made of the use of graphics. James Brown does his own graphics with energy and movement.
James brown goes hard
He ain't said negro no more lol
jay scott that was beautiful!!
(12:02) That's so needed to be heard and UNDERSTOOD 45 years later...
It's nice to see this sober side of him in interviews. He has a serious message and knowing what drugs did to him later on is rather sad.
Right smh😞
james was coming into a level of black consciousness. he stopped conking his hair and later that year he grew an afro.
All the video-effects during the performace footage is annoying!! Hate the way they used to do this. Just put a camera on JB and let him do his thang! No need for effects!
I agree scott
1969 ;)
They were groovy! 😒😎🤩 Seems annoying for real...
I wish he didn't start processing his hair. What a handsome man. Mike Douglas was great also back in the day...
