James Brown performing "Get It Together", "There Was A Time" & "I Got The Feelin'" live at the Boston Garden, on April 5, 1968.
The concert became a thing of legend. Only 24 hours earlier civil rights activist Dr Martin Luther King had been assassinated resulting in widespread violence across the United States. The mayor of Boston was persuaded to let the concert go ahead and it was broadcast live across the city by WGBH-TV. Featuring inspiring speeches and legendary performances, James Brown’s concert is said to have contributed majorly to maintaining calm and peace throughout the city that night.

Question: Who's better than James Brown? Answer: Nobody!

@motownfan3 3 ай бұрын

I'll get shot......but Jackie Wilson would give James Brown a "RUN FOR THE MONEY"....I've seen both back in the 60's nobody and I mean nobody could follow them ...they had to "close the show" when you left their shows you were exhausted !!!

Unbelievable! In my opinion, if it wasn’t for JB, Prince, Michael Jackson, Lenny Kravitz wouldn’t be. They all paid homage to James Brown. Have to respect them for that. Also, Jimi Hendrix and Bootsy Collins came out of the JB band.

He didn't. He was always going to play there. Kevin Wite and Tom Atkins had the idea of televising it to keep the peopke off the streets. Theyhad to pay Brown an extra $60,000 but they were the geniuses, notbrown. He just did what he was going to be paid to do anyway.

He did a lot of things marketing wise and showmanship wise that had never been done before. The hype men on stage, etc. Elvis did some of that in the 70's but I think James Brown may have done it first. The nicknames and monikers "godfather of soul", "hardest working man in show business".

There's another at the Apollo from the month previous but it's labeled as "There Was A Time" for some reason. As far as I know there are no other recorded performances of the song unfortunately.
