Remember This: The Hardest Working Man in Showbiz
When it was decided that James Brown would be the focus of today’s Remember This? I decided I need to refrain from the impulse to post all 1,001+ clips of JB in action. Here’s an all killer, no filler salute to the funkiest man who ever lived.
Sex Machine/Soul Power
“It’s a Man’s World” Medley from the Apollo, 1968
Dance lessons straight from the man himself
1974’s “Rumble in the Jungle” in Zaire with Muhammad Ali from When We Were Kings (1996)
Get on the Good Foot
World
“Say It Loud” on “Playboy After Dark”
Papa Don’t Take No Mess
Eddie Murphy’s SNL “Hot Tub” Sketch
A mix of vintage clips
And clip #11 - just for the hell of it… “The Cosby Show” pays tribute to James Brown
