Day 24 - James Brown & The Famous Flames - Live At The Apollo (1963)


I heard of James Brown through his song "I Feel Good" years ago, and "It's A Man's, Man's, Man's World" more recently when it was covered by Katherine McPhee on SMASH! I enjoyed this live album. It started off a bit slow but progressively got better. By the time he started singing "Lost Someone" I was totally into it and loved going along for the ride. James' voice is soulful and deep and he reallly makes the crowd go wild. The energy is awesome and the medley he does of 8 of his songs is to die for. 5/5.

Tracks I enjoyed the most: Lost Someone, Medley, Night Train, Think & I Don't Mind.
