After
One of the commenters on YouTube said it best about this show:
If you watch only the first 10 minutes, you’ll know that nothing like this ever passed through your life before. If you watch only 20 seconds (I suggest you start at 3:16), you’ll know that funk, soul, groove, and gospel were never concentrated at the same explosive levels in any other man or woman. Five minutes in, ask yourself: am I watching a “music concert,” or is this a HEALING? Ask yourselves: “Have I really got time for anything else but THIS today?”
