      Exactly. There's a show from the Netherlands where he was wearing a tight bodysuit. He was completely wet with sweat. He ran offstage and changed to a different costume.

    Roofers' work hard ' too, so thats no guarantee for success , but for poor boy from Georgia rise to his level of achievement it took tremendous amount of musical creativity and drive and do it well , I mean do it like no other band in the world.
    Thats why he should be remembered for more than just 'working hard ' but for being a musical genius and in my opinion the Greatest American Musician ever...

      This is one concert that's begging for a full restoration. I have seen a few tantalizing clips in much better quality. There is of course the Love Power Peace album with truly excellent sound, although that was apparently recorded on a different night of the same three night run at the Olympia as the filming.

      This would mean it was also cut from the CD, LP and Video, which is doubtful. JB was renowned for his medleys. This was '71 and bands often left their current hits until the end of the show.

      @@SoulOnTopJB I digg that, I can't remember what I saw it on. It might have been on Mr. Dynamite documentary, but when they showed soul power, it was at the beginning in how he would transition out get involved with the horns prolonging that infamous I call key of train because that's exactly what the horns sound like lol. But anyways there were people rushing the stage etc. I was like i never seen that on the video. I remember Jabo talking about this show and saying that he came back on stage three times during the ending of the show. Now granted it could have been the second show or later on that year when they came back in October of 71.

      @@andredawkins7041 Not sure, the "Soul Power" opening on Mr Dynamite is from this video, you can see the security standing on stage. The stage was rushed after he finished "Please Please Please", then he goes into Sex Machine for 38 seconds then it's what you see on this upload. I don't know how many gigs he did in Paris back in '71, but "Soul Power" is shorter than the official releases.
