@unclemighty1 The gospel song is older, so most believe that it was the inspiration for this tune. This is probably the most slept on tune in the entire JB catalogue.

Did James Brown pull this song from a gospel song called Oh Mary Don't You Weep". or did the Swan Silvertones and Claud Jeter take this song from James Brown" ?

Respond to this video... The Famous Flames lineup on THIS song is : JAMES BROWN, BOBBY BYRD, BOBBY BENNETT, and "BABY LLOYD" STALLWORTH .

@IkeDyson71 OR... maybe BOBBY BENNETT ?
-
@IkeDyson71 Uh...Do you mean JAMES ?
If JB was young and alive today and starting over does anyone thing he could redirect the direction of todays music or has the kids of this era been encased in the crap that passes for music now a days to appreciate him.

That's too difficult a question to ponder, because he had such a major influence on the music of today, a lot of which is just watered-down imitations of himself.
How could we consider how well he would do in a rap-dominated era, when without him, there would have been no rap in the first place?

And what's the name of the Famous Flame that you FORGOT? Come on - there's one more!

@IkeDyson71 There is??? I thought I named all of them. Sylvester, Nathan, Floyd & Fred were with the Flames from 1956 to about '59. the most famous line up was of course Bobby Byrd, Bobby Bennett & Lloyd Stallworth which was from 1960-1968. If I am forgetting anything please let me know.
