James Brown and Luciano Pavarotti




I was fascinated by this collaborative performance of “Man’s World.” I guess I’m not the only one, because the YouTube video has 3+ million views on it. The performance must have been fairly recent, because both of them look like the reanimated dead. I waited in line for a day in 1988 to see Mao’s pickled corpse in Tiananmen Square and frankly he looked like he was in better shape after 12 years under glass than these two look under the stage lights. An electrifying performance, regardless! YouTube.
