James Brown has to be the only performer on soul train to put his mike on the mike stand so he can get his boogie on with the soul train gang while his song is playing!
Wow this aired on Saturday September 14th 1974... I can't possibly remember what I was doing at the time... I know I had just turned 3 years old... 😆 😆 😆
I love the comment but it’s not wholly true. I would say African-American men probably had a lot more respect then than they do now, but racism was at an all time high back then. Funny and strange at the same time, isn’t it?
That’s not true, it exist then and still does now 2024. This country was built upon it, it’s a very ugly root that runs deep. We need non existent of it, racism.
This is when Soul Music really had soul and singer could sing and musicians could actually play their instruments. Today the same thing cannot be said.
The only artist that refused to lip sync when coming on Soul Train. About the only one they gave into about it also. I mean who was going to refuse James Brown?
James wasn’t the only one War was always live. Pfunk was always live . It was the way the studios did the contracts back in the day. It’s hard to lip sync Funk because it’s Jazz based and the notes are a little different every time it’s played
That is right James Brown band was unstoppable and know yet I have not seen anyone master his band craft and their no one I seen come with that funk beat.
Papa doesn't talk Papa James Brown plays and he is the hardest-working man who opens many doors for people of color, even rappers sample his music, and when through many obstacles in his life but did not allow anyone to stop him and he had a purpose, James Brown, he accomplishes and made big in Hollywood. I believe that if was still around he raised the roof off the roof to give you some more funky beat. I stay to listen to his music. Rest in peace King you bring the globe all you created during your prime duration hit after hit, your music is the best, and when you heard the James Brown sound you get up and rock to the rhythm. This brilliant man who was a man before his time.
It actually would have been counterproductive to have him and the JBs perform and not have it done LIVE. Same with Barry White, Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye. That kind of talent can't be lip synched. You got to let them make it do what it do. 💯👍
Ridiculous how good they were . 2 drum sets !!! Dats live man. Den the exit 😂 nobody can top none of his soul train cause like u said he sung and got down 4real !!!! Lol
in the 40s 1940s 1930s I can't explain it all I know it's just I'm a messenger and I ain't going to stop that's why I said I'm don't stop can't stop won't stop in Jesus name hallelujah amen

The real founder of hip hop beats James did it I’m a baby compared to this era but you can hear hip hop in his music aww man this video got me hyped up

My dad always played his music loud and clear. I could hear it in my mothers womb and 42 years later still enjoying it ❤❤❤❤
The baddest JB band of all time . Fred/ Maceo/ Sinclair,Bobby Byrd ect .
Too Hot and the Gang 😎
No Bobby here....long gone by this point.
❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
il manque Bobby Bird ,le meilleur duo de l'histoire de la Soul musique
He funked 'em out then went to the floor to jam with the crowd. That's a true legend!
Marvin gaye also would leave the stage and dance with the dancers.
This is THE GREATEST SOUL TRAIN performance of all time.. this is also James Brown at his APEX which is his mustache era AND HES FLYYYYYYYY AS HELL
TH-cam The Only True Time Machine!
You ain't lying
This Brotha killed it on the stage then hopped off and hit the Soul Train line!?! #Legend
cocaine is a helluva drug
Man! Seeing those suits all I need is an El Dorado!!! I am transplanted RIGHT BACK!!!
James in his prime my time. Real instruments for the soul...and that beat....move your body involuntarily 😅
Haha
Too funky! Too cool! James was wearing the hell out of that hat. So happy I grew up in that era
Great 🎶! James Brown 👏 Loved it!
😮 I'm jealous 😢 I came in 1982 😅
I’m jealous of everyone in this video. So lucky to witness this.
Of course it doesn't have millions of views.its real music
Thank you, Nuff’ said
Oh man, that had to have been one hell of a fun time on Soul Train for everyone there. He even danced out with the audience lol what a legend!
I have never seen sombody exit the stage like that ever in my life

James Brown on the top of his game. A beautiful site. Completely original and was relevant generation after generation.
Nobody....and I mean NOBODY, could DO IT LIKE MR. JAMES BROWN!! THE MAN IS LEGEND!!
This is one of the most seriously funky performance of JB and his crew.
Wish for a better video?
They ,,,,,put the STANK ! on ,, IT !! everyone showed up ..
W3333333333w3w33😅0ll😅
100% Accurate
It is pure FUNK!!!
It ain’t never gonna be an era like the JB era, I hope I’m wrong. We gotta get back to the rhythm of the one 🥁🎸🎹🎼🎷🪘🎺
THE KING OF FUNK AND R&B...PERIOD!
Ray Charles is the undisputed king of R&B, that's all, hands down.
What!! Absolutely
@@diamondblue5327I respect your opinion, even if you're wrong😅😅😅😅
IT'S THE BEST BAND IN THE LAND I JUST GOT TO JUMP back & TAKE MY STAND
This is a master piece
Very possibly the best ever music piece on You Tube.
This is 1 of the most serious songs I have ever heard.
Best archive of JB on the internet hands down!!! Perfect encapsulation of the funkiest brother who ever walked the planet 🔥🔥🔥🔊🔊🔊
Total mastery of his craft and band!
Doesn't get any better,just feels so organic that a legend was so intune,that he started to mingle with his fans at the end..
I think he was hoping to go down the traditional SOUL-TRAIN dance line.
But all the dancers gotexcited and wanted to get close to the Godfather.
One BAD ASS mo-fo performance!
Back when We Loved Each other 😮
Soul Brother number one!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just too funky man! RIP James Brown you are missed.
too funky for his own damn self
That’s when a Black Man was so respected that he could enter a crowd and not feel any hatred. Godfather of Soul…
What are you talking about???
YES!!! AND Strong Minded!
@@simonspider😅 Lololol!!! Check it Out! Ciao!!!

The Funkiest Man Alive. I remember the mid to late 80s when every hip hop hit playing on the radio contained a James Brown sample or two
James Brown. Soul King...and 💃🏾My Dear Friend Alex . McFadden.,🍀. introduced Me to Him 🌻💃💃
Gone but not forgotten
Augusta's finest right there!
Look at my beautiful people
During this era James Brown reminds me of my father and my uncle with their caps right above their eyes, smooth
One of my favorites!!
This is 🔥 as hell! And the hat!
Lord help me but I love the funk, can't help but loving the funk, if loving the funk is wrong i don't want to be right.
He's the God Father Of FUNK!!!
@@porkbeans4792 Amen
He was sosososo incredible
Classic performance.
I miss him
This was Super Funky!!! #1 Soul Brother, Mr. James Brown just kept it going... This Is So Epic!!!!?
ACTUAL LIVE MUSIC ON SOUL TRAIN----!!😁
Very rare! 💯🔥
Makes me think of my dad. Strong and loving, but he didn’t take no mess!
See him in 1972, wow phew me away big time, no one can out perform this man rip Mr brown
The Godfather of Soul making it oh so funky. Straight fire 🔥
PURE SOUL, THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME, THANK YOU JAMES
One of the very few artists that didn't lip sync on soul train. Brother was straight funky.
He never got credit for having a great, super unique voice.
He definitely got credit lol they call him the godfather of soul for a reason. In his younger days his voice was crazy good.
There it a lot of people I want to meet when I get to Heaven, this man is on the short list!
How do you know if your going to heaven ?
when my son was little he used to sing:
papa don't make no mess. ❤️
James Brown didn’t take no mess when it came down to Funk.
This is when Soul Music really had soul and singer could sing and musicians could actually play their instruments.
Today the same thing cannot be said.
One of the coldest beats/coldest performances!
I threw my James Brown cd in the other night driving home on a 5hr trip and I was funking out on some JB. Hit me, good gald.
James brown was and still is the best of the best of funk
THAT IS THE KIND OF FUNK THAT THE BRAZIL REALLY LIKES!!!!!!! S/O FROM SAO PAULO/BRAZIL

When i corrected my 3yo. He said "papa don't take no mess" after listening to this

James Brown could play at least four different instruments PIANO, GUITAR, HARMONICA, and DRUMS, something most people are not aware of
Wow, I had no idea!!! What a legend!!!
Self taught too!
Don't forget ORGAN!
@@a.c.6475 more black artist today should live and learn by that standard!!!
James Browns is fcking incredible

At no point in time did James Brown ever lip sync when he was on soul train. He’s a legend
Do you know who Mr Magoo is
The JB’s are legends too
