Possibly the greatest live record ever recorded, it captures the King of Soul performing his best songs of that era while exploding with a passion the studio versions never had.

My God... what energy. This album vibrates and sweats when you hold it in your hands. Any aspiring artist needs to listen to this to understand what a live performance sounds like. Simply the best. Oh to be at the Apollo that night...

I'm fairly sure I could listen to this album ten times in a row without tiring of it. #1 because it is only a 1/2 hr long. #2 because it has to be the most white hot musical synergy in a live setting you could possibly imagine. You NEED to hear this album.
