JJ A f 1 Papa's Got A Brand New Bag By AVON PRIVETTE James Brown and his show at Memorial Auditorium in Rrleigh last week were just out of this world. James, his 18 - piece band, The Flames, his dancers all were-just too much. . . All his fans (5000 of them) from the area were there, rea dy to see Mr. Dynamite him self. . .. The show was a combination of his band doing instrumen tal and backing him up when he played the organ, a come dy act, and James' selection of hits. They included "I 'Feel Good" "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag" and "Prisoner of Love." As he rendered "This Is A Man's World," there was a stillness in the crowd. Ev eryone was spellbound as his heart - and - soul poured forth the meaningful lyrics, that re sounded ell through the buil ding. . ' T Through the auspices of Joe and Elliot Murnick of C & M Productions, I was granted an interview with the one - and -only James. When I enetered his dress ing room he was reading thes article I had written about him in the Daily Tar Heel last week. That got us ac quainted so our interview got off to a bang. After chatting five or six minutes, I remem bered to turn on the tape re corder. Here it is, my interview with the King of Soul, James Brown. - DTH: "Though everybody has their own definition of your 'sound,' I know your own terms will add more meaning to them. James: "Well, my music is like you explain here in your column. I say, I say column. I appreciate it the pheno menal write up you gave me. It really made me feel good. But I'd like to say my music is like everyday livin'. I Ve to play it like I see it. Like the umpire scys, I call it like I see it.' And this is the way it goes. Its a religious thing, its a happy thing, but its like everyday living. That's what ;, it is. You know you said (in the write r up) : 'its, you mner 4 self.' That'sright.. J,; had. a lotm of problemsin my .. chilhood.' It was real rough for "me ltovj make it, you know. I had to J get out and work at an early ; age, but thanks to everybody else I made it." DTH: "You've bought a new i Lear Jet airplane, haven't 'i you?" James: "Yes, I have.", .-DTH: "Did you fly into ' Greensboro (James had played ' Sunday in Greensboro). ..James: "1 flew into Greens boro rnd I flew into Raleigh, too! It's out at the airport now. entertainment HOCKEY COACH WANTED! Faculty member interested in coaching a Carolina Ice-hoc-key Club please call 942-5819.

James: "I like the organ, but I like the drums too." DTH: "Are you going to play the drums tonight?" James: "I wont get a chance tonight, because I've been out twice already and I gotta go back again: DTH: "I gue?s you've lost a few pounds already." James: "Ha, ha, ha. I don't want you to think too much until you see the next part of the show. That's THE part. DTH: "I'm saving rot of my film for it. Do you have one favorite song? James: "Well, I love "Please, Please" with all the heart and soul I can come ua with. "Please, Please," that wa" mv beginning . You know, it ws tht beginning of James Brown. And it seems that ev prvbodv -l l'ks "Please, Please" better. Most of the D'ODle do, you know. But ev erybody has their own favor Jtps too, like this lrst song I just recorded about don't be a school dropout." DTH: "That was really tre mndous. (He had just pre formed this prior to the inter view) You, Bobby (Byrd). and the cheerleaders. It was wrll liked. James: "Yeah! Did you see the response we got from the audience?" DTH: "I got a picture of that. It was so sharp. You could see a warm glow in their frees." James: "Right, they really liked it." x DTH: "It was thoughtful for you to do it." . James: "Thank vou, thank you1, very: much. Well, its not tne- tnmg-ar, wnnner you want 1 to make! money all the -time. You want to make it. worthy of our country. I want to make our country bettpr." DTH: "Thats a nobte thing for you to say." James: "Yeah, this is fome thing, and I want to do even thing I can. And the only way we can larn to get every thing big to really go is to rai?p that 1cvp1 tht we live on. and our standards. Like go ing to school. We pot to gt a good education. We need to mke our livin' rtndard high er, you know. Then things are better for us. But ther?'l! al ways be some laborers around but we want thm to be skill ed because This is THE country. America is the coun try. I've been to all the for eign countries, but America is the country. DTH: "Hearing this from you sure makes me feel good." JAMES: "Oh man. I've been every place. I don't want to go no othr Dlace, not me. DTH: "I know of 13,000 stu dents who'll appreciate that. James: "Thank you very much. I want to say thanks to all the kids in school. Stay there until vou finish. Because if you don't you're gonna re gret it in your latr days, you know. You may as well be dad if you don't have an ed ucation. DTH: "Do you have a fav orite building in the area to perform in? JAMES: "Wellbelieve it or not, I lik the Memorial Au ditorium (in Raleigh.) DTH: "The acoustics there are better." James: "Yeah, I like the Memorial Auditorium. It kinda carries me back. I think about a while back when I used to play there." DTH: "One thing your many fans appreciate is that you al ways show up when you sched ule a performance. Bacjr. last January when it was snowing and sleeting, and the crowd was small, you still put on a grand show. James: "Well, I'm always gonna do that. Because if one person comes I'm gonna give him a show. Fame is one thing but friends is another. I'd rather have friends." DTH: "Thank you so much for the chat." James: "Well, go see the rest of the show and then come back and let, me know what you think. You can leave the recorder here. I'll, sign some pictures for you. You can pick them up after the show.
