Okay, forget all the other James Brown shows, this is the real deal. Allready uploaded earlier as a DVD. Now here is the full show (except It's a Mans, Mans world, officially released on 'I Got The Feelin') in High Quality audio.
For me personally there is no better, this even beats Live at the Apollo II, but hey! thats just my opinion.
Listen to 14 minutes of the tightest funk ever played on this planet in Papa's Got a Brand New Bag. This kicks the ass of every other performance of this song i know. Witness the birth of Funk in Cold Sweat. Remember this is 1967! James Brown and his band are the true heroes of Funk, Soul and Jazz.
Enjoy!
