The Night James Brown Saved Boston

April 5th, 1968 - the morning after one of the most catastrophic moments in American history: the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. America's inner cities are imploding and in Boston there is a fragile peace.

The Mayor of Boston is about to cancel a long-scheduled James Brown concert to avoid confrontation (a potentially incendiary move), but after warnings he has a change of heart and asks, "Is there something James Brown can do to help?"

Directed by award-winning writer-producer, David Leaf, 'The Night James Brown Saved Boston' tells the story of that amazing night. This DVD also features rarely seen footage of the "Godfather" of soul's concert, plus personal reminiscences from those in attendance.

The second disc includes the Boston concert in its entirety - James Brown in his absolute prime!
