  • Description

    James Brown -Stars Ballroom, The Hotel Bradford, Boston, MA December 18th 1977.

    James Brown's performance at the Stars Ballroom at the Hotel Bradford in Boston on December 18, 1971, is a quintessential display of his talent as "The Godfather of Soul." By 1971, Brown had solidified his reputation as a cultural icon, especially in the Black community. His performances carried weight beyond entertainment, serving as a celebration of pride and resilience during a turbulent era in American history. This show was part of a nationwide tour and took place during an era when Brown's music was transitioning towards funk, with hits like "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine" and "Soul Power" dominating the airwaves. Brown was known for his high-energy shows, and this performance is no exception. Backed by the J.B.'s, his tight-knit band, Brown delivers electrifying renditions of his hits. Homespun brings you this live radio broadcast from WBCN-FM for your listening pleasure.
