One thing I find genuinely impressive about James, aside from their free-spirited nature, is their ability to take something they've done in studio and either completely rework it for a live set, breathing new life into it; or just do an astounding job reproducing it, where most bands would require studio magic and techniques. Case and point, the "Falling Down" mpeg. You can tell they compose songs through performing together because everyone plays their own unique but vital part in the song, adds their own touches; and removing any member from the performance would have an immediate impact (he wasn't my favourite but I think Kulas might have had good input in future endeavours).
Another example that stands out in my memory is "Vervaceous" from the Getting Away With It.. Live performance. In both cases, not only did they write the song, they can actually play it.
