Revolution of the Mind: Live at the Apollo, Volume III is a live double album by James Brown released in 1971. As its subtitle suggests, it is Brown's third album recorded at the Apollo Theater, following the original Live at the Apollo (1963) and Live at the Apollo, Volume II (1968).

Contents

The album is notable as the first of his live albums to include a spoken introduction by his longtime master of ceremonies, Danny Ray.

Revolution of the Mind peaked at #39 on the pop album chart and at #7 R&B.
