Description
Flea Market, Miami, Florida, USA 30th October 1983 PRO-SHOT
James Brown in 1983, on the eve of his comeback with “Unity” and “Living in America”. A shocking new excavation pro shot that conveys the scene is being released as a gift!
　The footage included in this work is the “Miami performance on October 30, 1983.” It is a one-camera professional shot taken at a free concert held the month after the release of the album “BRING IT ON!” This footage is the latest video that is currently the hot topic of discussion. It was suddenly released without any prior notice, and its origin and content are full of rumors.
[Ultra-realistic one-camera professional shot taken without permission]
First, the origin. I mentioned “free concert” earlier, but the venue itself was a flea market, a special performance held on an outdoor stage set up in a parking lot. And it was not JB or a TV station that tried to film the performance, but the organizers of the event. They hired a cameraman without permission and had him film the performance.

　The history is also reflected in the quality. There is no multi-camera switching like in a normal professional shot, and it is completely one-camera. There is no sign of a camera test beforehand, and sometimes the band goes out of frame, or the event sign is shot in close-up. It looks like an uninformed cameraman is just shooting on the spot.
　On the other hand, it is a completely different dimension from the audience shot. The fiercely beautiful image quality is clearly using a professional camera, and the view of the audience standing side by side with JB and the band on stage, with no intention of hiding, and repeatedly shooting close-ups of their expressions, is not something the audience can see. And above all, the soundboard sound is superb. While clearly filled with the liveliness of a direct connection to the mix table, there are no loud cheers or airiness. You can fully enjoy the other-dimensional synchronization of the whole body perfectly matching the lively performance.
[Newly excavated footage with a shocking documentary feel of the interruption by JB]
It’s an incredibly shocking video, but what’s even more shocking is the content. The stage is divided into two parts, and for about 23 minutes from the beginning (until Jump To It) there is only a backing band. After that, the master appears with “Star Time” in the background and gives a hot performance from “Rapp Payback”.

　For about 27 minutes, you can enjoy the funky paradise under the blue sky, but it suddenly ends. The stage itself is in full swing with their signature song “It’s a Man’s Man’s Man’s World,” but the photographer puts the camera down and the filming ends.
　The reason for the interruption has not yet been determined, but it was probably JB’s instruction. As mentioned above, this shooting was done by the event organizers without their permission, and JB did not approve it. Just before the interruption, JB had left the stage to change costumes, and at that time he instructed the people to stop taking the unsightly photos.
　The close-up feeling of 50-year-old JB moving in front of you, the strange atmosphere of a free event different from a hall concert, the quality of ultra-high quality and handmade feeling, the live sound of the super-fine sound board, and the sense of trouble that suddenly ends… it’s a real “shock”. This is a piece that will scatter a huge shock both musically and documentarily, including the appearance and passionate performance of Jimmy Nolen, who will suddenly die of a heart attack two months later. Please enjoy the surprise and joy of this new excavation to the fullest with this work.
★Newly discovered pro shots are now available as a gift. These were taken without permission by the event organizers at an outdoor flea market performance. The shots are of the highest quality and have a handmade feel, and the documentary feel of the filming being interrupted by JB’s complaint is also very strong.
