Video du jour: Godfather teaches you his moves



I love this kitschy little clip of James hamming it up for the camera.

Here's another JB clip I love:



That's JB at the Olympia in Paris circa 1971. Bootsy Collins on bass, Bobby Byrd on organ, and that's a ripping trombone solo by Fred Wesley. The only thing that could make this better is a hot Maceo solo (but he wasn't on this date). Awesome, awesome band at their peak.
