Facts 💯

19

Ci Credo che hai Ballato,impossibile rimanere Fermi,io lo Vidi 13 Anni dopo al Palaverde di Villorba!! Nello stesso mese di Aprile si Esibi a Teatro 10 in Rai presentato da Alberto Lupo!!

Ti devi dire bravo perche io non c ero avendo solo 4 anni ma nel video non vedo quasi nessuno ballare come si dovrebbe con quel funky indiavolato ! Quando e' arrivato il mio turno d vederlo ,anni piu tardi ,quasi ci lascio le penne .....avrei dovuto portarmi una bomboletta d ossigeno !

And Bootsy was a kid back then. James youngest band member ever. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah I love Bootsy. What kind of kid tours with the best band of that era.....BOOTSY!

What about George Clinton? Funkadelic's first album was 1970. And that ish was raw, uncut funk

I think George and Bootsy are the funkiest men in the world but James was doing it first. Bootsy also influenced George music to a whole different level. Gorge music changed for the better when Bootsy got on board.

Huey Faggins For sure, James was the OG. But in your original comment you said "along with James, Bootsy is the father of funk" so I just thought Dr. Funkenstein belongs in that sentence as well

But when I listen to Parliament, it's not George, but Bootsy's Space Bass that won't let me keep still. Still, George's production skills can't be overlooked. It's no coincidence that "Freaky Styley" is my favorite RHCP album

The new king in town now!!!!! "COUNTRYBOY" ...m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=3856381577739343&id=100001026151518

And James owned a bunch of radio stations also.

It's a damn shame he had to break barriers.

Archie Thomas Not by me!

Not by me!

That's actually why I prefer Wilson Pickett over JB. The Pickett was not a martinet and the band could match the JBs hands down

I was 8 :)

..that should have been posted, 'do your thang'

An’ you get fined if miss a change!

He probably lost some money for that.

@@donaldthompson7766 Haahh 😄 I was thinking about that too.

Yeah that's cool

Also at 44:28. A little before his next solo he says “dont be so late phelps” then jb does his little thing right before his solo.

You caught that too. You know he got fined for that. Then when James is doing It's A Man's World he tells Phelps don't be so late!

Right on vato!

Yes indeedy....James Brown is trash after 78 ...like most things that didnt survive the 80s

indeed, passionate people see what I mean ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Zxgjwcvdf0s.html

I think it comes down to entitlement. Entitled people tend not to enjoy what's right in front of them in that moment, and are constantly thinking about what they want in the future. Instant gratification and all that. The typical entitled white Americans (and yes, I am one of them, I just realize how boring and "unfunky", as George Clinton would say, we can be) tend to be the ones demanding that the band play that one hit song that the radio overplays, and get angry and can't enjoy themselves until the band plays it. Those who aren't entitled enjoy all of the grooves for what they are, enjoy the moment for what it is, and overall have a better time and dance more. If you watch an old parliament/funkadelic concert in LA, Oakland or dc and compare it to some of their concerts in rural/suburban America, it's night and day when it comes to the crowd energy.

James Brown should be on the US Dollar Bill.

You ever seen his epic performance for the Tami Show? Never been a more enthralled, passionate audience for anything. Nice try tho...

@@patrickmccarron2817 Outstanding observation

Me Too. He Had Quit, And Joined Parliament/Funkadelic With George Clinton.

That was years later Kevin

Ikr.

Exactly

He is the best to ever do it and the JB’s

+magovenor How old was he?

Bootsy said he joined JB when he was 19 I think.

@@magovenor Magovenor, Bootsy was more like 17, believe it or not, when he started in the group with James Brown.

I

xperimentsrecords Ed Sullivan had a hand in that in 1966 ;)

Chickiee454 Ed had a hand in what?

Yes two bad dudes ,

Alexander Burr hah I just posted about this... he is LOCKED in!

Miles Davis was THAT AGE, when he picked up Herbie Hancock and Tony Williams, the pianist and drummer both young! LOOK WHAT HAPPENED!!!! Ron Carter and Wayne Shorter were a little older...

20 yr olds were more matured back then and earlier. 8 and 9 yr olds were soldiers during the American civil war.

Love Clyde but that's John Jabo Starks n Tiger Don Jaun Martin

Ok...you're right about Tiger Don Juan...but that's Frankie 'Kash' Waddy from The Houseguests

im tellin you. That break at the start was crazy

Shaheed1971

It's been scientifically proven to be the deepest groove of all time.

that was the bridge to Get Up Get Into It Get Involved. They played it off key here which gave it a kind of eeriness. Its found on the Love Peace & Power live album

Ike Dyson that's right..soul power. Got them confused since they were playing them back to back during that time period.

Right, they faded into obscurity after that.

@@gotham61 check the video and judge for yourself who was more impressive at that time

wrongvisions I guess jokes aren’t your thing
