Is there no stopping James Brown? 33 years after the recording of his legendary 1962 performance at the Apollo Theater, Mr. Dynamite returned to tear the roof off the same venue with this incendiary 19-track set. Backed by the Soul Generals, a crack group of musicians that lends horns, voices, and full-throttle instrumental backing, Brown sets out to rock the joint and take no prisoners.

The track list reads like the soul and R&B hit parade of the last 40 years. Brown revisits "Try Me," "Please, Please, Please," "(I Got You) I Feel Good," "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag," "Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine," "Get Up Offa That Thing," and other signature numbers of unspeakable, stupendous funkability. Were this a case of Brown revisiting old glories and resting on his laurels, it would be easy to dismiss. But the Godfather churns it out harder than ever, making this performance as riveting as the 1962 set. If this show is any indication, the hardest working man in show business shows no intention of retiring.

Principally recorded live at The Apollo Theater, New York, New York in September 1994. Includes liner notes by Ivan Bodley.

Entertainment Weekly (7/21/95, p.64) - "...even at his most run-of-the-mill, he's a miracle of modern music. After all, how many 67-year-old men do you know who can work a Harlem crowd into a frenzy singing songs like `Get Up (I Feel Like Being A) Sex Machine'?" - Rating: B+
Q (9/02, p.123) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Even aged 62, JB has the old Harlem theatre smitten..."

Customer Live At The Apollo 1995 Reviews 




Average Rating: (3 out of 5 stars) 3 stars

3 stars Enjoyable but not the "event" it should have been
If you love the first three editions you might *like* this one. Except for "Make It Funky 2000", "Hot Pants", and "Georgialina", there's not much excitement. The '62, '67, and '71 releases were perhaps overrated to some extent, but they captured one of the most incredible acts in history. What was needed here was a look-back at "Lost Someone", "Bring It Up", "Lickin' Stick - Lickin' Stick", "Money Won't Change You", and others which would have ensured at least a near-classic.

Mariah Carey Merry Christmas CD  (1994)

Live At The Apollo 1995 album
CD $8.75  4.4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
At this stage of her career Mariah Carey does not need to prove herself, but her voice is so powerful that with each new recording she, once again, reminds you: "Listen to what I can do." Vocal gymnastics and Christmas songs are not often thought of as a compatible combination, but on MERRY CHRISTMAS Mariah jumps, climbs, crawls, twirls and dashes her way through both traditional fare and original Christmas songs. She shifts through styles, offering fans from all musical camps a gift of their own. Her "Silent Night" shows off a studied vocalization where liquid phrasing is key. "Miss You Most (At Christmas Time)" shows off a dynamic voice that is hard to match. She has fun with the Phil Spector goodie "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)," a song straight out of '60s girl-group heaven. There is even a ...

Live At The Apollo 1995 CD music
CD $7.85  4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples
This is part of "20th Century Masters: The Millenium Collection" series. Indeed, it is the most wonderful time of the year, and this reissue of 1993's Christmas Interpretations arrives under the Universal 20th Century Masters series, which has launched its own subset of holiday releases. Produced by fellow soulful crooner Brian McKnight, this ten-song workout is not a collection of holiday favorites (aside from the traditional "Silent Night" that opens and closes the recording), but a series of brand new holiday compositions based on the quiet storm market. The Boyz are in fine form, as per usual, and the production work is of top-notch quality. However, within the smooth delivery lie lyrics that are melancholic and downtrodden, the kind of despair that is commonly associated with the holiday season but just not expressed so soulfully, most ...

Rihanna Rated R CD  (2009)

Live At The Apollo 1995 music CDs
CD $14.64  SALE 2.2 stars Top 100
"Russian Roulette," released weeks prior to Rated R, just hinted at Rihanna's sudden desire to provoke. Even with the realization that it is metaphorical, the song startles with its hesitant gasps, spinning cylinders, and verses that are glacially paced, where a cold piano line and the slight inflections in Rihanna's voice are front and center. And then there's an audible shudder followed by a discharged bullet -- the abrupt end to one of Rated R's most restrained moments. It's not the only instance where Rihanna's rise in fame, combined with being the victim in the decade's highest-profile felonious assault, added up to a perfect-storm scenario for a creative overhaul. Rated R is more like Good Girl Gone Evil, or Abused Girl Full of Vengeful Rage, not Good Girl Gone Bad, where the only casualties were some dishes. The closest the ...
