View More By James Brown Our ReviewNot much remains to be said about Live at the Apollo, the 1962 recording that documented the already Hardest Working Man in Show Business’ stage appearance and provided his most effective introduction yet to the pop mainstream. (It eventually reached No. 2 in Billboard, just behind an Andy Williams LP.) At the heart of the album lie two extended slow workouts, a 10-plus-minute “Lost Someone” and a medley built around “Please, Please, Please” that shows how Brown could still the most emotionally overwrought crowd; you can hear a pin drop when he sings an almost churchy “I Love You, Yes I Do.” Apollo, more than any other record, codified the give-and-take of the soul revolution and its audience. This edition includes four single sides later edited from the album.. Customer ReviewsOh My God (5 stars)Remember when you first heard pre-Atlantic era Bob Marley? The revelation of timelessness, the awe, the sheer beauty of singular genius in its full flower? I had that moment again last night. I picked up James Brown & the Famous Flames - Live at the Apollo (Remastered 1962) on iTunes, and my life got a tiny bit better the moment I heard this album. James and the Flames open with 'I'll Go Crazy'- this is perhaps the nast One of the greatest concerts of all time! (5 stars) If you are new to Mr. Brown this the perfect place to start! I would say this is JB at his peak. But I just saw him last night and he was as great as ever. Unequalled Energy (5 stars) James is the man, if you don't believe it, I dare you to listen to this album and get back to me. This album contains more energy than any other recording I've ever heard. I listen to all kinds of music and I have never been so moved by an album/recording in the way this moved me. Prepare to get goose bumps throughout and just try sitting still.

Other singers were more popular, others were equally skilled, but few other African-American musicians were so influential over the course of popular music. And no other musician, pop or...
