No, The Dells were Killers not Idiots. We came from the same era as James Brown, When he opened for Great Groups, like The Midnighters, and 5 Royales. The Dells were Not intimidated by James, and he knew what was coming....

I can listen to Alan Leeds tell stories all day.
I’m honored and privileged to have had the opportunity to play saxophone with the Mighty Dells!
James was jealous! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a MFr
He was high on crack people think he didn’t dabble he more than dabbled
@@joski9030"Crack" wasn't even a thing at that time.

The Dells were amazing!!!! I have “Love Is Blue” on vinyl in my crates!!! Great album!!!! James Brown was a hater!!!😕😕😕😕
JB should have known better than to have the Dells anywhere near his shows on stage or in the audience 😂
We're all just pawns in the James Brown realm
That Was At The Uptown Theater In Philly! J.B. Was A Hater!
One of the best sogs , ever is The Dells Love is Blue
Marvin Junior from the Dells put my boy James in the truck bag🤣
The Dells had some real tone
Good job! I’m hooked on these stories! Thank you
Fuckin’ Dells! Haha. Love that.
James did have a point 👉 always leave em wanting more
Wowee..the dells

To this day artist still think and behave this way, the chitterling circuit never died nor changed👀😬
yes its someone elses fault
Love the dells
Like when rolling stones didn't want lynyrd skynyrd to stand on they're tongue.
I love these stories!
Egomaniac
Lol they just dipped
I like it that the cartoonist gave the white dude the biggest Afro in the show.
That's because he actually had a huge 'fro back in the day. Keep watching. They show pictures of him on occasion.
I’ve been the follow up act twice. I died once, and I killed the second time.
THE DELLS... HARVEY IL
I'm from Calumet city.
