James Brown: The Album That Almost Never Was
James Brown live at the Apollo is seen by many as the seminal live album, but it was a record that was fraught with difficulties from the start.

I don't think I have ever seen so few views, likes or comments before on a video on this channel. I wonder what made this one so toxic.

Greil Marcus ranked it among the top ten albums in the history of rock music.

Great to see you honour James Brown. He doesn't seem to get the attention that his music & performance legacy deserves.
