James Brown    Please Please Please and Night Train, Live at the T.A.M.I. Show, The Santa Monica Civic Auditorium     1964

WOW!   Fuck!!    God Damn!!!

If this is not the most intense performance in the long history of our misbegotten species, and a performance by an artist utterly and completely transported and enraptured by the moment he’s in, then I don’t have a clue what it is I’m seeing.
