R.I.P. , Mr. Brown

First thing I heard when I woke up yesterday. So long, godfather, and thank you.

I lived in Augusta, GA for years and years and frequently "ran into" Mr. Brown...actually a very interesting and kind person.

Gone but not forgotten! His influence is much greater than I realised, my 3 teens all knew who he was and the Eddie Murphy character in 'Dream Girls' is more than just a little 'inspired by' Mr. Brown! God Speed James Brown!

That reminds me, do you guys remember this blast from the past? Looks like Eddie's been a fan for a very long time!
