James Brown and the JBs in 1971 and the Olympia tapes

Every once in awhile a high quality video of this performance of James Brown performing with the short-lived JBs (yes, that is Bootsy Collins on bass) shows up on YouTube, only to disappear days later. Same thing with the shows at the Olympia in Paris in 1966, '67 and '71. Please, please, please, someone release the video of these shows restored and in their entirety. Whoever is sitting on these tapes, release them- your dead ass is sitting on a goldmine.
