I was at a theatre in Paris where they were showing Soul Power, the documentary of the legendary concert that took place in Zaire Africa before the fight between Ali and Forman that Ali won. I brought the outfit worn by James Brown in the film to the theatre. Catch the film on DVD. It is inspiring musically and socially. Incredible performances by James Brown, The Spinners.
