Commercial Break: James Brown Gives A Dance Lesson

There going to be a lot of people who laugh at this. What you should know is a good majority of the moves James Brown is doing in this itty-bitty clip...I completely stole. I didn't know how to dance as a kid and when I seen old footage of James Brown, Rufus Thomas and The Temptations I would go in the kitchen [with the socks on, because that's how you get a good slide] and get to dancing. It wasn't until this clip popped up one of my friends facebook streams that I realized, "Wow, I took a lot from James Brown!" I probably wouldn't even like a lot of music I listen to know if it weren't for old tapes like these that are probably long lost treasures hidden in my childhood home.

Long Live Funk Music.

[sidenote: If anybody can hip me to this version of "If You Don't Work, You Can't Eat" I'd be very appreciative] update: Nevermind...I found it
