Some of the most joyful, invigorating music ever. If you popped in James Brown on the way to work, you'd never have a bad day. Title: Re: James Brown dead at 73 Post by: bhodi on December 25, 2006, 07:25:22 AM Too soon? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cr_6q9DcSiM)

Title: Re: James Brown dead at 73 Post by: stray on December 25, 2006, 11:14:33 AM Great clip here as well (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmbBMiwJMrc). In the 70's.
Title: Re: James Brown dead at 73 Post by: Sky on December 26, 2006, 07:09:15 AM I highly recommend the Say It Live and Loud - Dallas 8/26/68 (http://www.amazon.com/Say-Live-Loud-Dallas-08-26-68/dp/B000009QMM). I got this one from the library collection and was stunned, it's an incredible album, one of my favorites. I love throwing it on for long road trips, keeps the good times rollin' along. People have recommended the Apollo album, which is good...but not as good as this one.
Another incredible talent gone before I had a chance to see him. I really need to get out and see Buddy Guy this year. Where are the modern James Browns? James Brown wouldn't bother to shit on Jay-Z. Heaven just got a lot funkier. Title: Re: James Brown dead at 73 Post by: bhodi on December 26, 2006, 06:26:25 PM http://www.ifilm.com/video/2633303/channel/viralvideo

Huge loss, among of year of huge losses. Title: Re: James Brown dead at 73 Post by: Hutch on January 02, 2007, 11:23:51 AM James Brown was a prisoner (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USTilaOqNHM)
Rest in Peace, James Brown. Title: Re: James Brown dead at 73 Post by: Nebu on January 02, 2007, 11:33:35 AM He was black and he was proud. He was also a thief and a wife beater. A great GREAT entertainer... not much of a rolemodel though. The music industry lost a true entertaining genius. |
