September 3rd – Even at the age of seventy three, the drugs, the women and who knows what else, the Godfather of Soul still has the moves and voice to bring the Morongo crowd to its feet. Even though at times it seemed like the songs went on forever the energy of the band, the backup singers and James’ command of the stage kept you enthralled.
James and his band ripped through most of the old classics like “Get Up (Sex Machine)” and “Cold Sweat”. The Key Club turned out to be a cool venue too with its three tiered levels. The only drawbacks were the seating on the floor and the fact that you have to drive an hour and half from LA to a desert casino when there’s nothing else around to do but gamble after the show and lose your money. At least I got to see a legend live up to his name!
