James Brown Slaughter's Theme (Live '73) 

I don't know what you heard?but James didn't forget the words to his song.

Listen around 1.34 and 2.58 gets a bit mixed up but he’s still great and it was a relatively new song. He also never sang live the same as on record.

I played this song in high school when I was 16 years old 🤜🏾🤛🏽

Loved the period from 72-75 at his funkiest with Fred and the JBS

The james brown mustache period was from 1974-1979

@@poody_Smoove994 I know that but the payback album was created in 73. This is when the development of the mustache era style of singing and rhythmic pattern and music was starting to show.

Andre Dawkins yes as on the payback album he doesn’t have a moustache!! And he get rid of it in 78

poody smooth 1978. By 1979 it was off.

Also on one of his soul train episodes.

Yessssssssssss, they did

And The J.C.'s were live and hiding just behind the curtain, no doubt.@@Supreme10-p9h

Was he playing with his JB's or was it the Johny Carson band?

@@Thinksamuel It sounded like the JB‘s! That horn only could’ve been from Fred Wesley

You can hear some lackluster in the groove… kinda supermarket funk. I think there’s some of JB’s band and the Doc Severinson orchestra playing.

@@JPVillalobos27 It's clear that either John "Jabo" Starks or Clyde Stubblefield should've laid down the drums instead for this, but they have Ed Shaughnessy.

@@jnadle1 Exactly! I was trying to be nice about it. Ed was a great swing drummer but playing funk or a downhome shuffle is a feel, a cultural thing.

It's from a DVD called "The Tonight Show Johnny Carson - The Vault Series 6, which you can find dirt cheap on eBay , also features Ali & Norton.

@@SoulOnTopJB anymore footage of James Brown on the dvd?

If only anyone could get their hands on the Kinshasa, Zaire concert

The movie was awful especially costumes. Mr Brown never wore tennis shoes.

Vince Washington yes and his pants were to baggy for the TAMI show. Also his hairstyles were not right for the year shown, and Maceo wasn’t fat and where was Fred?

@@francisrobbins1499 if you can check my JB impression during the 1971 era on my channel I have two parts. Tell me what you think

@@vincewashington3694 They had James in them flat church shoes. I noticed that the last time I watched it. A film on his life definitely needs to be redone and not on the caricature tip either but showing the real him and his impact on music. The way Get On Up started in the beginning of the film u can tell how it was gonna be right after. The same way the Miles Davis ‘Miles Ahead’ film was. Not a good film whatsoever! Biopics been droppin’ the ball!!
