He's the best ever MJ and Prince idol

The TAMI show is the first music concert to be put in theaters nationwide. TAMI stands for Teenage America Music international. He did four songs he came out with "Out of Sight," then went into "Prisoner of love" then "Please Please Please" and ended up with Nigh train. He killed the show the Rolling Stones didn't even want to come out after his performance. watch the DVD The TAMI show for the full concert.

Masterclass in master class. I'm still diggin' on James Brown.

James Brown always had one of the tightest bands period

You are right. The JBs were just as good as the funk brothers out of Motown

At 16:14 James is about to do a split but actually almost falls. But he recovers it well. I saw this show at the Lincoln Theatre in Tampa Florida with my Mom as a wide-eyed 8 year old. After James finished, the entire audience got up and left. Literally no one stayed for The Stones.

No one and I mean no one could throw down like James Brown. He had that crowd in a frenzy and he kept cranking the energy higher and higher. Even the mess up on the 2nd splits attempt looked cool because he kept rolling and played it straight to a push up. I get exhausted just watching the performance. But you know who I felt a little bad for? The Stones, they had to follow this. I read Mick Jagger was watching this in the wings, turned to his manager/agent and laconically asked "How the (bleep) are we supposed to follow this up?" Keith Richards later admitted the biggest mistake that they ever made was letting James Brown perform before them. Not being disrespectful, the Stones were big fans of James Brown but even they were left in awe at the showstopping ability of The Godfather.

James Brown killed it

This man was made of Red Bull way before Red Bull was thought of lol. The greatest performance ever! RIP JB.

Take one measure of Fred Astaire, add a measure of James Brown, and add a cupful of Jeffrey Daniel ( The Guy who dances on Top of The Pops (TOTP) with Shalamar.

1964 Wow the Stones were on this show as well they had just hit North America at this time you guys need to watch the Stones from this show as well this was three years before I was born WOW 60 years old this year. James was a perfectionist and was hard on his back up band and singers. Sorry just saw that you did the Stones

James Brown baddest man on the planet

I read that Keith Richards recalled seeing James Brown and Co. perform before they closed and saw that it was a big mistake to let that happen. Nobody ever saw anything like that set. But in spite of the star-studded mix, it might have been just out of the producers' comfort zone to let a black act close the night in those times. Another thing I came away with watching the whole T.A.M.I. Show is that the Stones seeing them perform must have lit a fire under their butts to step it up with songwriting. They would have gone the way of half the British Invasion otherwise. That Mick Jagger co-produced the JB biopic confirms for me the Stones owe him their careers from that night on.

Fabulous! I first saw this performance on a VHS tape in the mid 1980's. Now it's on blu ray! At 15:49 - As Brown exits the stage I noticed he walks past future Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Darlene Love along with two other singers (who I guess were The Blossoms at the time?)

"SMOKEY ROBINSON ?" Do you mean *THE MIRACLES?*

Notice the band carefully watching James, He had those movements for the band to see, each movement told the band what to do If they missed their cue they were fined. when he drags his foot to the side the band drags the note. PS edited for correctness see highlighted for boo boo reveal

@@MusicallyChallenged James wanted every move of his on the beat so so he gave them cues so he could keep a rhythm going. When he started his dance some was choreographed the rest was improvised he wanted his improv in sync with the music as if they were one he didn't want to detract from the performance by vocal cues to the band. he wanted seamless performances.

No, he wasn't. Larry Graham, who created the slap bass/plucking and thumping style of bass playing, wasn't in James' band. He had several bassists over the years, most notably Bootsy Collins, who later went on to Parliament/Funkadelic and his own solo career, but Bootsy didn't come to JB until about 4 years later, as this show was 1965.

Byrd is on the far right with the flames.

The decsion for James Brown to go on before the Rolling Stones was not the Stones' decison - it was the producers of the show! When Mick Jagger saw James Brown in performance, the LAST THING he wanted to do was follow his act! However, the fact that James Brown was Black and the Rolling Stones White meant, at that time, the Stones had to close the show, for they always save "the best" for last!

You got your high sneakers on and your slipping mules, you got your high sneakers on and your slipping mules, you're more than alright, ya know you're outta sight.
