James Brown performs "Please Please Please" to a live audience on the TAMI Show.
"Please, Please, Please" was written by James Brown and Johnny Terry and released as a single on Federal Records in 1956, it charted #6 R&B. It was the group's debut recording and first chart hit, and became their signature song.
The TAMI Show is a 1964 concert that included performances by numerous popular rock and roll and R&B musicians from the United States and England. TAMI stood for both "Teenage Awards Music International" and "Teen Age Music International". The concert was held at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on October 28 and 29, 1964. Free tickets were distributed to local high school students. The best footage from each of the two concert dates was edited into the film, which was released on December 29, 1964. The TAMI Show is particularly well known for James Brown's performance featuring his legendary dance moves and explosive energy.

Hands Up Who’s Still Listening in 2024 ❤Never Gets Old
2024 love from south africa I'm still listening
Don't be a like beggar.
I am
❤ Agree 👍🏻
I am
We're so lucky that this was recorded.
You are right. I feel sorry for the people who did not get the opportunity to see James Brown in person. Those capes were magnificent! James seemed like he was really that woman to please don't leave him.
Imagine what performances haven’t been recorded. But yeah absolutely
That right
Who is here in 2024 and beyond still bumping The Godfather raise your hand ✋️
Love James Brown!!!!!!
I totally get why James Brown was so popular back then, I have never seen such a passionate performance from today's singers.
Man…. The girls in the audience ate this up!
He had a 27 piece band...night train was another great hit..he performed here in Klamath Falls Oregon when I was young..I'm 65 now
Don't forget about the drummer. He was jammin' too
AMEN to that. 🔥
@@user-yv6gb7mm8pClyde Stubblefield aka the "Funky Drummer" James was giving him direction throughout the whole performance. 🔥 🔥
I just adore the melodrama of it all. Like he’s performing through a heart attack.
I just want to know who idea this was. This was a genius way to perform this song.
This was WILD sh!t so original every single musician that came after points to James Brown definitely was a thug but times were tough back then 🕺🏿the guys w jacket duty got paid overtime so cool 😎 👍🏻
@@DaygoKid94This is an example of
African American culture, we do things like this all the time, that's why so many copy our culture this is just an example of our talent we do all the time.
@@smoothskin46 I get that. We create the coolest shit but I still want bruh to get his flowers for thinking of this.
Convulsing on beat and everything 😂😂 he was killing em
Dammit!!! That drummer knew the assignment!!! This is absolutely 🔥you will not see anywhere today!!!
Does anyone know the name of the drummer? He was fantastic!!!
@@lilbitalexis97 a few of us tried to research it before... we thought it was either Jabo Starks, or Clayton Fillyau. wish we had a clearer picture. Someone also suggested Clyde Stubblefield.
Like James would say, "Give the drummer some!"
I can actually play like that its a gift and a course cause once yo I get rolling some ones going to hear you and its hard stop especially if you got a base player egging you own
No one else ever sang with such raw emotion
In addition to James, there is so much happening on that stage. The three back-up singers that are absolutely KILLING it, the guitarist with a guitar twice as big as he is, the drummer never losing James once during the song, and the bassist just grooving. Amazing stuff.
I didn't notice how big that guitar was until you mentioned it lol
Those "Three Backup Singers" are *THE FAMOUS FLAMES* , James Brown's original Singing group. James Brown first began his career in the early 1950's as a MEMBER of The FAMOUS FLAMES...and he was a Famous Flame TOO.
JAMES BROWN & THE FAMOUS FLAMES were all ONE GROUP. The other members were: *BOBBY BYRD, BOBBY BENNETT, & LLOYD STALLWORTH*. THE FAMOUS FLAMES sang on many hit records with James...and in 2012, they joined him into THE ROCK and ROLL HALL of FAME. *BUT...most young people today are too YOUNG to remember THE FLAMES, so they ONLY credit JAMES BROWN* . All they know about is James, Maceo,and "Da Funk". They need to brush up on their *MUSIC HISTORY*

And his hype man😂😂
Cape Man didnt missed a note neither
That guitarist is probably hank "country "kellum
Papa's got a brand new bag
The big payback
Mother popcorn
Correct me if I am wrong
Now that’s a performance everyone did they thing. This man said about 5 words and please 700 times with random self made sound effects and it’s one of his biggest hits. 🐐
White people mad AF
Proving once again that it's not what you say but how you say it 😂
My goodness, James Brown love that woman! No artist can match his energy.
JAMES bROWN IS THE ONLY MAN WHO COULD PULL THIS OFF PLEASE PLEASE OVER AND OVER AGAIN...AND MAKE IT GREAT. mISS HIS TALENT...Y0UNG BLACK MEN TODAY CAN'T DO THIS AT ALLLLLL
😂😂😂😂
My grandma was actually in the audience there, she told me her and her friends knew they would never see something as incredible as this performance again
Lie
God bless your granma... :D Shes already blessed to witness something like this tho
That is so special...my Mom saw BB King when I was in her belly. In 62 in San Diego... Women were beinng carried out by their men including my sweet Mama. Orgasmic was how she described it!!! Kings.... Foriver into Eternity!!!! Top Notch!!!
@@ChroniclesofAlicha_Balaam That's James Brown not BB King..... and I Love you.
BBking lol
The amount of detail in his performance is insane 🤯💯🎥🔥🔥
Very true
🤩😍💥💯🙌🏽
You dont understand, i literally watch this atleast once a day😭😭😭
@@zigtheslayer same bro best live show ever
There was no camera...
Rest In Peace Danny Ray...2021. Danny Ray was "The Cape Man", Emcee of the Shows, and James' personal Valet. He passed away Feb. 2021.
Rip to some history
Thanks, I wanted to know who he was, very loyal to Mr Brown
Wow..
@@MOMAX03111 He was JBs cousin.
@@jeffner56 thanks
I was 16 when I saw James perform Please, Please, Please at the Howard Theatre in 1965. I was ready to run away from home that night. I was hooked every since. I saw James 33 times in my lifetime and I finally got a chance to meet him in California during the Blues Brothers 25 Year Anniversary and got his autograph. I met James, Henry, Napier and others. Got the hat, and the sunglasses and I still have them to this day. No one performed, they just sat in front of the stage and told stories about how The Blues Brothers movie was made. What a performer, James was. RIP.
I was at that show growing up in DC he would do 3 shows a day, i was so young I would be at the Matinee
Yes, he did 3 shows per day.
So did I. At the Howard in 1965. Cardozo high school.
@@bettyboykin6788 Girl, I had fun. I knew a Helen Boykin when I worked at GPO when I was in my 20s. Any relation?
For him to use 6 words and a couple of random sounds and still be a powerful song is mind blowing
U a whole FN hater
Yes indeed 😃😃😫😩scream I i iii,please
facts. just hooky motifs and accents
u mean the same way you using adverb as an adjective?
should be "unrelated words"
FOR SURE...THE ONE AND ONLY MAN WHO COULD PULL PLLLLLLEASE OFFF SOOOO MANY TIMES AND ARE STILL MESMERIZED BY THIS SONG.
I have watched this video for like 50 times and am watching it over and over here In 2023 such a powerful performance
MeToo!
Yeap ,me too masanja 👍🏽
Can't beat J.B.!!
Just love the concern on Danny Ray's face as he walked up with the Cape.
This, surprisingly, outranks Billie Jean.
The drummer killed it! What a great performance!
👍👍
Yes. The unsung hero of the performance
Hello
drummer half a show
Yea he's all over it.
James Brown and Tina Turner never slowed down their entire careers, the energy they had was insane.
Hook em both to the power grid pure energy
I miss you James brown
Wouldn't have been great if they had recorded a tune together, then performed it live; WOW
Yes Tina show was like a female version of James.
Truth!!!💯
He was so ahead of his time he got people in the future pressing rewind
We literally are right now!!!!!
IamaGod StuntGod I think James Brown came out at the right time in music and culture.
@Mr White Bruno Mars owes his career to the Godfather of soul
Love it, ain't that the TRUTH
How true
The older I get, the more I find myself going back to the pioneers of it all, and realizing that the greatest performers of today are only standing on the shoulders of these giants
This makes it sound like the best of today are reaching new heights. They are not. They are not fit to lay in James Brown’s dog house.
@@YayaTourney bruh come on thats rude af
Musicians, yes. Concert camera workers, not so much.
And they stand on the shoulders of those that come before
Michael got many dance moves from James.
56 years later and no one can match this Power, Energy and Presence! He killed it 🤙🏽
Yes indeed..even Michael Jackson got his persona from him, Jackie Wilson Chuck Barry and Elvis Presley
Queen is equal.
@@talknheadz only James brown can tackle down James brown baby
im pretty sure michael jackson exists
@@luca.Xavier I'm pretty sure god exists
2024 we still here! The KING!
This is the definition in full form of the following:
1. A singer
2. A performer
3. An entertainer
4. A band
5. Stage presence
6. Last but not least.. music
Well said.
Lol true so true💯😭
Spot on 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hasani Vibez is a younger version just like him
All but #1, great entertainer, but not a great singer.
Can we agree the drummer was the best
Yes.
Score: 10/10 , both for James and the drummer.
Real music. Real instruments. Real singing. Real talent. Real class
Real Soul
Phenomenal! But let’s also give some recognition to that band, they are fucking tight!
Especially the drummer
But, they HAD to be lol.. to keep up with the GOAT
James Brown's backup band was the original tight band. All other horn bands compared themselves to his band.
James did not play with his band
Had to be or you were OUT
He took 5 words " Baby Please Don't Go a d made a number 1 record.
That's GREATNESS
Yes!
Please don't go
I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves his songs, how often do you like to listening to his songs. He is a great artist, with lovely voice. RIP Legend.
bruvva that's 4 words
@@donovanfox9505 I'm glad you said that... some say he couldn't sing but he could really sing. Listen to some of his earlier recordings.
Give the Drummer some...🙏🏿👍🏿
yessir!!!!!
Smooth cat rite there
mike black yes
🥁🥁
👍🏼
This is the GREATEST live performance of any song EVER. PERIOD THAT'S IT THE END!
Imagine the amount of energy it took to perform this.
Amount of cocaine
So no one is going say how badass of a drummer thats backing the Godfather...PURE TALENT!! ON POINT EVERY TIME!
"Give the Drummer some."
He killin it on drums!!!
His whole band was so tight.
Drummer is a BADASS👍🏽😊
The drummer is killing it !
who is still listening to this great guy in 2020
Me
Listening right now hun!
I listen to J.B. 4 ever!!
Me!
MEEEEEEEEEE
TRUE STORY:
I was born in El Paso Texas in 1956. In the early 60s my mom and I were made to ride in the back of the bus because we were Hispanic. That's where I fell in love with Arithea Franklin, James Brown, Otis Redding etc etc, because a lot of black people played their Motorola transistor radios and just jammed in the back of the bus. One day I heard Please Please, and it pierced my heart as one of the most beautiful and exciting songs I've ever heard...
About a week later James Brown came on Black & White TV and played Please Please... When he started to sing I was so excited as I've never seen what James looked like, let alone singing live. On the black & white TV his sweat on his face glistened along with the sequenced coat. But when he started singing I started to get real scared because I've never seen a singer get so angry tossing the mike around, and his Back Ground singers kept putting on the cape, and suddenly tossed it off his back and started yelling/singing at the top of his lungs. I got so scared I started yelling for my mom, but the Sh!t hit the fan every time he got on his knees and tossed off his cape in anger.. I was in total fear saying "What Is Wrong With Him"!!! Mom!!! It looks like he is going to kill someone!!! Mom how can someone do such a thing on TV, how do they allow it to be so scary... For months I had nightmares. It took me a while to understand it was all an act... To this day I remember it like it was yesterday, and I love James Brown, especially Please Please. Back then I was such an innocent child. ( :
Just remember, and the first shall be last.
Danielsotelo3942, what a lovely,❤ and,-at the same time-hilarious story. My hats off to you.😅
I met James Brown in El Paso when I was 16. He was so kind and signed his autograph.
@torralba4349 Torralba4349, you are a VEEEEEEEERY, LUCKY PERSON, if James Brown signed an autograph for you. That's enough to KEEP YOU YOUNG, AND, LIVING FOREVER.
@@torralba4349 That is so neat.
The drummer was really on top of his game!! The birth of drum and bass!!
Because he knew if he had got out of pocket, James was gonna fine his ass 50 bucks. And that was a lot of money back then.
I think that’s the tightest live drumming I’ve ever heard.
Soooooo gooood
Ong bro that bih clean asf
James Brown and the fabulous flames. So good. The hardest working entertainer in show business. Mr. Please please please.
Exactly what I was thinking!
Yessir
Now, THAT'S how you beg your woman not to go!!!🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯
If she not taking you back after that ain't no chance jack..
They don't make em like that no more! 😏
@@46erbfume RIGHT!!!💯💯🤣🤣
@@miaorange WHAT-CHOO-SAY??!!😏😏
Haaaaaaa!😄😄😄😄
How come I never get tired of watching this performance ????
Because it’s an absolute A+ performance. Every step, turn and beat is in sync.
Because it's one of, if not the greatest, live performance ever filmed. JB's TAMI appearance is fantastic!
The drumming is outstanding.
Tana Pana
The whole fucking band is outstanding...
Tana Pana show off laissez le chantée
especially the drums tho
Tana Pana got that right!
James often had up to four strong drummers travel with the band.
Now i know why they call him The Godfather of soul
Not in the Sixties. Back then, he was known as *MISTER DYNAMITE !!!*
@vincentrich - Banned But Not Forgotten th-cam.com/video/qpbL3M4UrI0/w-d-xo.html
This is simply the best stage performance in history.
+Chris Imo LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL xDD
Hell yeah
+nooutrolado dofm
LOL? I don't get the joke. I don't know what you were looking at, but the raw emotions expended in this performance is OSCAR award worthy and has never been matched since without some other artist attempting to copy what James Brown did here live unrehearsed. James Brown went to the great length to make sure the Rolling Stones who the promoters chose to close the show instead of him became irrelevant after thought YAWN.
E.C. IMO Michael Jackson.
Make that greatest performance in history
I’m back here in 2024. I still love this video ❤😊
Do you understand how much talent you have to have to scream please and fall on your knees and get the room to go crazy this dude was on a another level
James Brown didn't need pyrotechnics, fancy lighting, harnesses, video screens, etc. 😊
@@djm5687 yes, people need alot shock value to cover their talents
MJ: Hello..
The whole crowd: *Fainting* & Screaming
@@type4025 why do people keep on bringing up the same ol artist, as if there aren't other artist in music history smh
@@learner5090 because the rest are shit
the drummer and James Knees are so in sync!!
this man was truly an entertainer
He was a perfectionist, everything had to be done correctly to a T and as a result was probably rehearsed countless times before live performances. Michael Jackson was the same way, and it's not surprising he considered James as his biggest influence.
I NEVER noticed that. I was so busy watching James. Thanks for pointing that out. You are on the one because that is EXACTLY what is happening - the drummer emphasizes that knee fall! Perfect!
he didn't want those $5 deductions in his pay.
@@lucashenderson2775 there performances turn jazzy and they mix it up. They jammin together on this one
I'm sorry to anyone that disagrees but the combination of amazing singing, stage presence, awesome beat, crowd connection, pure talent, and intelligence to choreograph the (Walk off the Stage in exhaustion, with a cape no less, but can't leave the crowd comeback, all to perfect timing with the beat) the number 1 performance ever.
Straight black church inspired
Jah Prime......100% true!!!
I AGREE WITH YOU...THIS IS ALMOST OLD SCHOOL BAPTIST CHURCH" SHOUTING & CELEBRATING..." THE REASON WHY ALL OF THESE SONGS WORKS ..IS BECAUSE ITS ABOUT GOD"S GIVING MAN LIFE" AND THEN GIVING HIM A HELP MATE " A WOMAN ..EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T KNOW WHO SHE IS" HE DOESN'T WANT HER TO LEAVE" SO IN ONE POWERFUL SWOOP OF WORDS" ( PLEASE? PLEASE? PLEASE DONT GO"...ITS TIMELESS...ITS PRICELESS...ITS ALL JAMES BROWN" WOW???
@@dominiquejones3805on god that’s why they was pissed lol
I agree
The audience really got their money's worth with this legend. Wish I could've experienced this live ✊🏿
They got the Federal Reserve money's worth.
Me too💯💯 James showed out and everyone on that stage with him.
this was a free show, they passed out tickets to the high school kids in Santa Monica! I was there!
RIP, Danny Ray!!!! Dude who draped cape over his shoulders!!! GREATEST hype man ever!!
Thanks for adding this, Dennis. I have to confess, I'd never seen this James Brown performance, wasn't aware of it, or the song, until about 20 minutes ago when I was reading about record producer 'Ralph Bass'. Bass's Wiki page mentions this James Brown performance and, naturally, I had to see what all the fuss was about. I am so very glad I found the video as it has enlightened and nourished me. Having read your comment, I searched for Danny and realised how important this whole event was to so many people and so many generations. I need to watch this video again - it's incredible.
I’m 23, sitting here in 2018, wondering why anything with this sort of enthusiasm, passion, and theatrics, with actual raw vocals, doesn’t exist today. I’m honestly blown away.
Low standards.
Get you - Daniel Ceaser
Try harder with your research next time.
I’m 47 in 2019 and think this very thing... James Brown still The Godfather Of Soul/Rock/Rap/R&B!
Kanye West before his most recent mental breakdown...go look up clips of his yeezus tour, shit was bonkers.
It does not exist because people and especially youth are not schooled enough musically and are afraid to be openly enthusiastic , there is a fear off beimg disliked for liking anything else than mainstream bland overproduced undertalented.slush.
One of the best live performances of all times! No crutches or lights and camera tricks. Original creative performance based on pure talent.
ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can’t plan this in a board room.
MJ but that's it
@@dootek mj was on his living room floor watching this
STILL KEEPING SOUL BROTHER NUMBER ONE ALIVE IN 2023!!!
he was called "the hardest working man in show business"
Also The Godfather of Soul, Soul Brother Number One, Mr. Dynamite and several other names!
I saw him at Central Stadium with my late brother in 1966. Amazing!!!!
How if he just sang and everyone did all the work?
I'm a bit older than most of you,
When I was a kid, he still sang with The Famous Flames...as you can see here...and here was how they were introduced:
"Mr. Dynamite" ,the Amazing "Mr. Please Please" himself, the star of the show...
JAMES BROWN and THE FAMOUS FLAMES!!"
Wasn't by accident, right? lol
I would never play in a show after James Brown. He was vicious
The Rolling Stones had the choice to go on before or after James Brown in this performance (The T.A.M.I. Show, available on disc). Keith Richards said, "The worst decision in the group's career was to go on after James Brown on the T.A.M.I. Show."
Let me just say this: THE DRUMMER👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
He always has good drummers. Listen to cold sweat
Killin' groove! Clyde Stubblefield is a funk machine!!!!!
Julian Gardea A BEAST !!!
Dude never took his eyes off JB..
Maceo Parker's brother Melvin Parker.
That could very well have been the greatest performance by the greatest showman on planet earth ever.
his drop to the ground game is off the hook... this is hilarious and soulful
ooo9 koo moo moo
And my knees are aching by just looking at him dropping
The man fell 4 times on his knees on beat every time. Please Please Please don't go JB! RIP!
Yes and it's beyond amazing!! I'm in awe everytime I watch it and I've watched it a lot. 👏🏾👏🏾
Wish my man would do that for me. I would lose my mind for sure.

@@lisalisa1018 well i ain't your man , but Lisa , "please b a by dont go"! Lol
Love it Deangelo🥰 shit sick
This tune was made to show how good the backup singers were and showcased the entire band. They all got down
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Famous_Flames
One of the greatest performances in the history of entertainment. So soulful. Half the time he is hardly even singing into the mic, yet he communicates so powerfully you understand his message intuitively. A piece of genius. I like the part when he falls to his knees, overcome by emotion. What woman isn't going to forgive him after that?
He was a great, great showman and performer and a one off.
"YUP 💯!!!:
There will never be another...the swag,sincerity, exhilarating,energy..what!
Women are cold.
Men start relationships.
Women end them...
you have to listen to the drummer works soo well with James....he helps him make this work perfectly.
Florida45Gal I just told my grandson “listen to the drummer and watch James”!! So in sync. Even his head jerks were in sync with each snare drum hit!
James Browns band the Flames were seamless profesisonals

James brown had the soul stone
Well they don’t call James the God Father of Soul for no reason
I always said James was one of the greatest Atheletes of all time. The Stamina, Voice, dancing.a force of nature
Now i understand why Michael Jackson says he's his biggest influence

it's hard to believe a performance like this really existed

Miles , I was there. Seen this act in person.
kalifson bigboy are you still alive?
I can imagine a lot of white, middle-class parents being terrified by his performance.
My father played the drums like he was possessed!
He completely killed it. James was lucky to have him. A major buttkicker.
That was your father?!!!!!!
He is out of this universe on the pockets
DAMN
WOW salute to your Father!
That's your Dad?!
Awesome, awesome playing!!
This song is from 1957 and still better than most songs today
I would say..ALL the mess..every type of music
1956
This performance here is 1964
Hell yeah it is!!
@@wolfgangvonuce9615 Yeah but the original studio was sung in 1956.

Not sure about that. Great performance but have been great s galore. One of mr brown s best friends. Heat wave check him out
It was from the TAMI Show, the most exciting 16 minutes captured on film. I’m surprised the film didn’t melt!
@@mancan1531 Yep.
Agree! There is no better one!
how cool is utube, just being able to click on it and see him performing it.
:')
Words cannot express my gratitude
That's why I'm here.
Brother James made every song a performance. RIP my man.
R.I.P. to Danny May - James Brown “cape man”
James Brown owns that cloak act! No one else can steal that copyright!..Love it!
The cloak act: Genius.
Yep, I love it too. Montz.
That 🥁 playing the hell out them 🥁 I swear that boy didn't miss a beat with all that going on 💯💯💯
This drummer was on point the whole time!

I saw this same show in Sacramento, California. It was incredible.
What a memory to have!
Really what year
Me to what year in Sacramento?
Mind blowing that folks in here that actually witnessed this
How much were the show tickets at this time?
It’s crazy when you realize James brown inspired Michael Jackson’s and prince I believe legacy isn’t based on what you do but who you inspire
Good point

And bruno Mars
Michael was more inspired by Jackie Wilson

This has got to be one of the greatest performances in the history of Rock and Roll!!! The first time I saw this it blew me away! I could only imagen what it must have been like to be there at the beginning of Rock and Roll when this new music was defining a generation!! Those screams and yells the parents didn't understand, but the kids knew exactly what it meant! I've never heard anyone who could imitate him, his sound was so distinctive! There will never be another like him.
JB is selling it, and I'm buying every ounce. Man, truly amazing performer.
Agree
Sounds so wrong
He was in phenomenal physical shape to tour over 300 days a year with those routines.
Those knees of his must have taken a real beating dropping to the floor so much like he did.
He lived for touring! Woe to his band members who couldn't keep up they were simply replaced.😏
I was front row centerstage Blackham Coliseum, Lafayette LA 1968 USL, a fraternity boy when James did Please Please Please for the number one party school in the nation, USL. Blackham was an unairconditioned livestock arena, portable floor and stage. We were all on our feet as James repeatedly broke away from his backup singers, throw off his capes, to run back on stage and slide on his knees to the footlights. His sweat flying in our faces. I have never seen a better showman. He was magic. I'm 73 years old, now. I had no idea how lucky I was that night.
Amazing!
Still Listening to This Song in 2024
Lol - he was entertaining them while exhausting himself in the process...giving his fans what they wanted. Legend.
James brown and the drummer are perfectly in sync. My favorite part of this is the drummer..I've watched this Ike a million times and love it each time. I could travel back in time I would go watch this concert live. Fuckk amazing!!! LOVEEE JAMES BROWN 🥰♥️♥️♥️
That drummer is key in pulling off this performance. I read years ago that Brown would fine him for missing a beat. He is right on the money, and Brown is right there with him, working in tandem.
This man took one word and made a Master Piece 🙌🏾 genius 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾
The fact that none of the performers today could provide this experience 🥺😢
C'est la classe
What about "Night Train?"
When he scream "BAAABY"
All the girls in the crowd 😂😂
This live performance is my favorite from him. When James was born they broke the mold and destroyed the pieces.
2023. What an entertainer. Rest in paradise Mr hardest working man in soul business. If they had mobile mics back then we could hear so much more.
