Classic TV + search engine = instant retrospective! I guess I'd make a lousy futurist ... I never imagined that I would be doing what I'm doing, creating interactive TV on the fly. But here we go:
Here's a YouTube of "I Feel Good" from the white-bread days of TV featuring halfhearted lip synchs.
Here's a dynamite YouTube medley of "Sex Machine" and "Get on the Good Foot" from what looks like a show taped in the early 80s. All live.
A user named 100jbfunk1 is posting a lot of clips from old JB appearances, like the 1968 "Man to Man" concert in NYC. I'll link to him instead of any individual clips which may come down at any time.
Electrifying mid-60s video of Brown doing "Out of Sight" and all the moves.
And then there's this: Michael Jackson and Prince joining JB on stage. The tape is time-coded which makes me think some broadcast professional posted it.
Two more: "Brand New Bag" from the Hall of Fame induction, with great audio (limited time only, I'm sure!) ... and from the same user, this front-row seat for "Eyesight," that ends, tantalizingly, with Soul Brother No. 1 about to open his mouth and sing again ...
