Occasionally for our Full Show Friday series RtBE decides to dedicate the month to certain topics like showcasing random years, say 1979, or unique live venues, like CBGB's. Sometimes we combine both like Bonnaroo 2014. This month we are focusing on live shows from the historic NYC Venue Webster Hall aka The Ritz. Enjoy!
RtBE have enjoyed many a concert at the famed Webster Hall or as it was known in the 80's, The Ritz and a few weeks ago the club played host to it's last show for sometime as it will be undergoing a long renovation. To celebrate the illustrious venue we will be dedicating September's Full Show Friday's to the club, highlighting some amazing performances.
Well we started this month's Webster Hall/Ritz showcase with the amazing Prince, and we end the showcase month with the man who he loved and emulated, James Brown. January 1986 saw Brown back in the spotlight after his performance of "Living In America" in Rocky 4 (the robot from the film does an intro here) and while we here at RtBE have never ever let JB leave out ears for long it is great to see him back and riding high here (perhaps in more ways than one).
While this isn't our favorite show from The Godfather of Soul (for that check THIS out) it is still great to see him (along with Maceo Parker and that crazy tuxedo) play and in the famed small venue as well. We hope enjoyed this monthly showcase, we sure did. Pro-shot, Pro-sound full setlist below, Enjoy!
