Live At the Apollo

about this album

Live at the Apollo is the first live album by James Brown, released in 1963 by King Records. It was recorded on the night of October 24, 1962, at the Apollo Theater in Harlem (Upper Manhattan, New York City). Although not credited on the album cover or label, Brown's vocal group, The Famous Flames (Bobby Byrd, Bobby Bennett, and Lloyd Stallworth), played an important co-starring role in Live at the Apollo, and are included with Brown by MC Fats Gonder in the album's intro. (It wasn't until the CD release of this album, decades later, that The Flames were finally credited for their work on this album).
