Post Description

James Joseph Brown (May 3, 1933 – December 25, 2006) was an American singer and musician. The central progenitor of funk music and a major figure of 20th-century music, he is referred to by various honorific nicknames, some of which include "the Hardest-Working Man in Show Business", "Godfather of Soul", "Mr. Dynamite", and "Soul Brother No. 1". In a career that lasted more than 50 years, he influenced the development of several music genres. Brown was one of the first 10 inductees into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame at its inaugural induction in New York on January 23, 1986.

One of the defining elements of James Brown's career has always been his electrifying live shows and his performances at Montreux give ample evidence of this. This DVD focuses on his appearance at the 1981 festival and is undeniably one of his finest concerts with classic versions of "It's A Man's Man's Man's World", "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag", "I Got You (I Feel Good)" and "Sex Machine".
