 Rating: - Bold StatementIt's is against my nature and better judgement to say something like this but, given the caliber of record that is "James Brown Live at the Apollo", I have to say that I feel it is the greatest live album...ever. Of course we are discussing a pivotal musical figure and a very distinct style of music- but I think anybody that cares about music would be impacted by this amazing album. More than just an album, it is an incredible document of something very beautiful in the ...

I can see why Live At The Apollo receives such high acclaim but for me personally I don't enjoy it as much as most. I love live albums, getting to hear what a legend you may have never seen live is amazing. Live At The Apollo does not live up to what I always imagined James Brown being like.

Rating: - Mr. Dynamite goes to HarlemWith the passing of James Brown at the end of 2006, the lost one of its most its most powerful musical fores, a sweat-soaked juggernaut of white-hot passion and burning soul. For proof of that, consult this very album. Recorded late in 1962, when Brown was still a relative lightweight (commercially speaking), Live at the Apollo is a sizzling slice of raw soul, collection of breathless R&B stompers and heart-shredding ballads that put the Godfather on the musical map long before he got around to inventing ...
