Fucking James Brown

[Gil Bang 25980]

Yes, he's the best showman that's ever lived, and the best front man ever, but holy shit, as a band leader and song writer...wow. 

I've been a fan for decades, and I was lucky enough to go to a half-dozen shows. 

I'm home alone tonight...GF is visiting her mom.  Yeah, I've had a few.  "Hey Alexa...play James Brown".  

Even at this shitty sound quality, I've been blown away by songs I've heard a million times before.   Fucker was a genius. 

 

And, for those that aren't fans, here's the legendary performance

Best way to kickstart a party is to put on some James Brown.

Eddie Murphy’s bit about not understanding shit James says is the best.
